Questions

Working in Wapping

What work do you do in Wapping?

Across Wapping (E1W) it is mostly warehouse conversion refurbishments, decorating, flooring, carpentry and bathrooms. Wapping is warehouse conversions and riverside flats, where exposed brick, timber and steel are the point of the place, so the work is about repairing and matching original fabric and keeping dust out of an open plan space rather than boxing everything in. Which of those makes sense for your place comes out of a free look at the job rather than a phone call, because the property decides most of it.

Do you charge extra to work in Wapping?

No, it is in the price. Wapping is about 3 km from us in Bow, well inside the area we cover as a matter of course. Where distance would genuinely change a price is a small one visit job a long way out, and you would be told that before quoting rather than after.

Do you work in Wapping often?

Yes. Wapping is warehouse conversions with brick, timber and steel on show, so the work is about matching what is there rather than covering it. We are based in Bow and cover East London, the Essex side and south of the river, so Wapping 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.

Does the type of property in Wapping change the job?

Yes, and mostly in what you keep. In Wapping the brick, timber and steel are the reason people bought the place, so the work is repairing and matching rather than covering up: plaster patched into a brick return without a hard line, floors made good in the same timber, and dust controlled in a space with no internal doors to close. It is slower and more careful work, and it is worth doing that way in a building like that.

How soon could you start on a job in Wapping?

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.

Is the quote for a job in Wapping free?

Yes, and nothing is attached to it. Somebody comes out to Wapping, 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.

Can you work around a tenant or a managing agent in Wapping?

Yes, and a fair amount of the work in Wapping 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.
