FAQs for Nutbourne
Do you come out to small places like Nutbourne?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you work for landlords with property near Pulborough station?
Of course: pictures and an address are all we need for a price, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we tidy up before we leave.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Are there extra charges for Nutbourne?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Nutbourne
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. For a rural home like those around Nutbourne, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
