Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
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 typically cheaper.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings

Questions from Maiden Law
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do you repair coloured uPVC?
Yes. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
