FAQs for Flempton
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you cover Flempton?
We do. We send a technician to Flempton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

For rail, the closest station is Bury St Edmunds station, about 3.8 miles south-east of the centre.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently 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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Landlord and trade work in Flempton
If you manage property in Flempton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged board frequently means lifting boards to reach it, sourcing a matching board and relaying. A repair works with the boards in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
