Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cox Green use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
