Yes. Central London is mostly flats in mansion blocks and period conversions, where access, parking and the building manager need sorting before anybody turns up with tools, and years of site work in the middle of town means that side of it is routine. We are based in Bow and cover London, from the East End out into Essex, south of the river and over to the west, so Central London is normal territory. If we are busy and cannot start when you need, you get told that rather than being kept waiting on a maybe.
Yes, in what is worth saving. Much of Central London is period property and some of it is listed, so cornice, panelled doors, sash windows and original floors are repaired and matched rather than replaced with something modern that never quite sits right. Externally what you can change is restricted, so the work goes inside, and it is done knowing that a heavy handed repair in a house like that is worse than no repair at all.
Small jobs and maintenance lists are usually within the week, sometimes the next day. A room refurbishment or a bathroom is typically two to four weeks out depending on what is already booked. Ring or send photos on WhatsApp and you will get honest dates rather than optimistic ones.
Yes, and nothing is attached to it. Somebody comes out to Central London, looks at the job, talks through what you actually want at the end of it, and you get a price for the work. There is nothing to pay until the work is done and you are happy with it.
Yes, and a fair amount of the work in Central London is exactly that: landlords, letting agents and managing agents. We can work to a list, arrange access with a tenant, keep to permitted working hours in a block and send photos of what has been done so the person paying does not have to travel to check.
Call, send a WhatsApp or use the form. Photos of the job help, and the quote and the advice cost nothing either way.
