- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cunningsburgh
For anyone letting property in or around Cunningsburgh, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cunningsburgh as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the frame or panel.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We smooth the repair.
- We match the colour, including woodgrain finishes.
- We blend the repair into the surrounding surface.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
