Our technicians cover 50 places across Dundee, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Edinburgh, about 38 miles away.
Jobs in DD3, DD4 and DD1 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. We regularly work on streets such as Mid Road, Dens Road and Don's Road.

Neighbouring places we cover include Dundee (1 mile west), Woodside (1 mile north), Craigiebank (1 mile east), Mill of Mains (1 mile north) and Pitkerro (1 mile north-east).

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
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.

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Stobswell. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
