Swimbridge questions
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Generally, if it isn’t loose.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swimbridge as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
