Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get a quote?

Call us or use our contact page. For small jobs we can often quote over the phone. For bigger work, we'll pop round to take a look.

What areas do you cover?

We're based in Newmarket and cover Cambridge and the surrounding villages. Not sure if we cover your area? Just ask.

Can you do multiple jobs in one visit?

Yes — and it's often the best value. Many customers save up a list and we work through it in one go.

Do you supply materials?

We can, or we're happy to use items you've bought. If we're getting materials, we'll agree the cost with you first.

How long will my job take?

It depends on the work. We'll give you a clear idea when we quote, and keep you updated if anything changes.

Do I need to be home?

Up to you. Some customers stay, others leave us a key. Whatever works best for you.

What if I'm not sure what needs doing?

No problem. We're happy to take a look and talk through your options.

How does this fit with your decorating work?

They go hand in hand. We often spot repairs before painting, or customers ask us to hang pictures and shelves once decorating is done.

What's your availability like?

We have good availability for the coming months. Get in touch and we'll find a time that works.

How do I pay?

Bank transfer, cash or cheque. For bigger jobs we may ask for a deposit, with the rest due on completion.
