Do you cover all of Bracknell?

Yes. Bracknell is about 10 minutes from our base in Wokingham, well inside our core area. That takes in the RG12 and RG42 postcodes, including every neighbourhood of the town and Binfield and Warfield to the north. Crowthorne, Sandhurst and Ascot are covered too. If you are unsure, send the postcode and we will confirm it.

When should cracks in a new-build house be repaired?

Fine cracks in the first year or two are common in new houses, as the timber, plaster and plasterboard dry out. They are usually cosmetic. It is worth waiting until the house has been through a full heating season before filling and redecorating, so the cracks do not open again. Wide, stepped or growing cracks are different and should be checked by the builder or a surveyor first.

Do you visit the property before quoting?

Yes, for anything beyond a small, clearly defined job. Photos and a short description let us say whether the work fits. We then visit to look at the rooms, check what needs a closer inspection and agree the scope. The written scope follows the visit, so nothing is priced from photographs alone.

What should I send first?

Send the address or postcode, a few photographs of each room, a floor plan if you have one, rough dimensions, your timing and a short note on what needs to change. From that we can tell you what needs a closer look on site and whether the brief fits the work we do.

Local homes

Houses in Bracknell

Bracknell was designated a new town in 1949, and most of its homes were built in planned neighbourhoods over the decades that followed. Priestwood, Easthampstead, Bullbrook and Harmans Water came first, from the early 1950s. Later neighbourhoods followed, and more recently large new estates on the edges of the town.

That history shapes the work we see:

Post-war houses in the first neighbourhoods often have plaster that has been patched and painted many times. A skim coat before redecorating usually gives a better result than another layer of filler.
Houses from the 1970s and 1980s often have textured ceilings and dated woodwork. A textured coating from before 2000 needs an asbestos test before anyone disturbs it. After that, the ceiling can usually be skimmed flat.
New-build homes commonly show fine cracks in their first year or two as the building dries out. Once the house has been through a heating season, the cracks can be filled and the rooms decorated without them coming back.

If the property is empty, between tenants or before you move in, every room can be done at once and in the right order.
