Poynton is just over the Cheshire East boundary and the work there is nearly all planned family housing refurbishment. Bathrooms, kitchens, conversions and full renovations across Poynton and the SK12 streets around it, with building, plumbing and electrics all from the same team.
Poynton is larger detached and semi-detached housing on generous plots, so the work there is nearly always planned refurbishment with a higher specification rather than reactive repair. In practice most of what we are asked for around Poynton is bathroom renovations, with every other trade on the list available alongside it.
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 Poynton (SK12) it is mostly bathroom renovations, kitchen fitting, garage and loft conversions on larger family housing. Poynton is larger detached and semi-detached housing on generous plots, so the work there is nearly always planned refurbishment with a higher specification rather than reactive repair. 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. Poynton is roughly 7 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. Poynton is just over the Cheshire East boundary and the work there is nearly all planned family housing refurbishment. We are based in Stockport and cover Cheshire and the surrounding areas as standard, so Poynton 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.
Mostly in specification rather than in structure. Housing in Poynton is generally larger, in good order and straightforward to work on, so the time goes into the detailing: tiling set out properly, joinery scribed rather than filled, and the finish holding up to being looked at closely. Jobs there are usually planned months ahead, which suits everybody, because a renovation with a proper lead time is a renovation with the right materials on site on the right day.
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.
Poynton is about 7 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.
