Bathrooms are what we are known for.
/02The business comes from a joinery background, and it shows most in a kitchen.
/03Lofts, garages and awkward layouts converted into rooms that earn their keep: a home office, a fourth bedroom, an extra shower room or a through-lounge.
/04A renovation goes wrong when six trades are booked separately and each one is waiting on the last.
/05Electrical work run in as part of the job rather than bolted on at the end.
/06Bathrooms, kitchens, radiators and pipework, run as part of the build instead of booked as a separate trade.
Around Altrincham (WA14) it is mostly bathroom renovations, kitchen fitting, conversions and full refurbishment on a wide mix of housing. Altrincham covers a wide spread of housing, from town centre terraces and flats to large family houses on the edges, so the same trade list gets used on very different sizes of job. Anything beyond a small repair is priced after we have been to look at it rather than over the phone, because the state of what is already there decides most of the cost.
No, travel is in the price. Altrincham is roughly 13 km from us in Stockport, well inside the area we cover day to day, so you are paying for the work rather than for the van. What moves the price is the job itself: what has to come out, what goes back, and whether anything structural is involved.
Yes. Altrincham runs from town centre flats to large houses out towards Hale, so no two jobs there are the same size. We are based in Stockport and cover Cheshire and the surrounding areas as standard, so Altrincham is well inside the normal patch. Call and describe the job and you will get a straight answer on timing rather than a promise to ring back.
Some, mostly in what people ask for. Housing in Altrincham is largely interwar and post-war semis, which are predictable to work on and quick to survey. Floors and walls are generally sound, garages are usually attached and easy to convert, and lofts are often the cheapest extra room in the house. Older properties need the floors and the pipework looking at first, and newer ones need the fixings thinking about, but neither adds much when it is allowed for at the quote.
Yes, and most of them are. It means planning the days so the room is out of use for as short a time as possible, keeping the water on where we can, sheeting the route in and out, and cleaning the house down at the end of every day. If it is the only bathroom in the property, say so when you call, because that changes the order the work is done in and it is much easier to plan for at the start than half way through.
Altrincham is about 13 km away, which is a straightforward run, so getting out to look at it is easy. The visit and the quote are normally within the week. The start date depends on what is already booked in, and we would rather tell you a real date a few weeks out than promise next Monday and let you down. Small jobs can often be slotted in sooner.
Yes. Replacing a toilet, retiling a shower, hanging a door properly, adding a socket or fixing a leak are all normal work for us, and they get the same visit and the same written price as anything bigger. If it turns out to be something you could sort yourself in half an hour, we will tell you that instead of invoicing you for it.
