How it works
Three steps, no surprises
Call or Message
Tell Richard about your project. We'll talk it through properly, ask the right questions, and give you an honest answer on whether it's a job for us.
Site Visit
We come out, look at the property properly, and talk through what's realistic, including what we'd advise against.
Estimate & Quote
After the visit, we'll go away and come back to you with a ballpark figure rather than guessing on the spot. If that works for you, we'll then prepare a fully itemised written quote, free of charge and with no obligation.
