A little before and after. It's amazing the difference a small change can make to your space. This oak mantel transforms the chimney breast and brings the fireplace prominently into the room.

I have availability in my diary so get in touch if there's anything you would like done.

Merry Christmas everyone

With the cold weather here, it's a good idea to turn off the isolator valve to your outside tap.

This 2 min task could save a lot of stress and damage should the pipe freeze and burst.

It's recommended that after the isolator valve has been turned off, you leave the outside tap itself open. This way should the pipe freeze the ice has room to expand without causing damage.

A recent job making good following damage from movement. The property had been given the green light after being made structurally sound. Our job was to remove loose plaster and hardwall where it had failed, stabilise, hardwall, skim and redecorate. You'd never know!

We're taking on work so feel free to get in touch if we can help.
