Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Cruckmeole 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. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
