North Hertfordshire questions
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, North Hertfordshire included. There is no extra charge for travel.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cambridgeshire.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Other services in North Hertfordshire
Repairing versus replacing in North Hertfordshire
A new window, door or sill is a much bigger job, and it may not match the rest after years of weathering. Repairing the damage leaves the unit in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Hertfordshire as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Failed or misted double glazing units
- Broken locks, hinges or mechanisms
- Frames that are warped or out of square
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
