How we price
Fixed price on anything we can assess on a visit. Where we can't — like behind a wall — we say so and cap the hourly rate.
Materials at cost plus 12%, receipts shown. We earn on labor, not on selling you taps.

Fixed price: nothing, you pay the quote. Hourly: we call before exceeding our estimate by 15%.
Thirty days for private customers. Larger projects are staged as work's completed — no deposits.
Yes, included — photo documentation and a report insurers accept. You pay only the excess.
Interest-free over three to six months on jobs over £4,000. For bigger renovations, your own mortgage usually beats any financing partner.
