Landlord and trade work in Whitburn

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
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.
What affects the price in Whitburn
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

- Boards that have lifted or warped
- Underfloor damage
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Whitburn questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do I need to move furniture?
Just around the damaged area.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
