The Heatons are full of large Victorian and Edwardian houses, which means original layouts that are worth opening up and floors that need looking at before anything is fitted. Bathrooms, kitchens, conversions and full renovations across Heaton Moor and the SK4 streets around it, with building, plumbing and electrics all from the same team.
Heaton Moor is largely Victorian and Edwardian housing with high ceilings, original layouts and floors that have been lifted more than once, which means the survey matters as much as the design and nothing gets priced from a photograph. In practice most of what we are asked for around Heaton Moor is bathroom renovations in period houses, with every other trade on the list available alongside it.
Bathrooms are what we are known for.
/02The business comes from a joinery background, and it shows most in a kitchen.
/03Lofts, garages and awkward layouts converted into rooms that earn their keep: a home office, a fourth bedroom, an extra shower room or a through-lounge.
/04A renovation goes wrong when six trades are booked separately and each one is waiting on the last.
/05Electrical work run in as part of the job rather than bolted on at the end.
/06Bathrooms, kitchens, radiators and pipework, run as part of the build instead of booked as a separate trade.
Around Heaton Moor (SK4) it is mostly bathroom renovations in period houses, kitchen knock-throughs and loft conversions. Heaton Moor is largely Victorian and Edwardian housing with high ceilings, original layouts and floors that have been lifted more than once, which means the survey matters as much as the design and nothing gets priced from a photograph. Anything beyond a small repair is priced after we have been to look at it rather than over the phone, because the state of what is already there decides most of the cost.
No. Heaton Moor is where we are based, so there is nothing added for travel and a first visit to look at the job is usually within a day or two of the call.
Yes. The Heatons are full of large Victorian and Edwardian houses, which means original layouts that are worth opening up and floors that need looking at before anything is fitted. We are based in Stockport and cover Cheshire and the surrounding areas as standard, so Heaton Moor is well inside the normal patch. Call and describe the job and you will get a straight answer on timing rather than a promise to ring back.
Yes, and mostly in a good way. Period houses in Heaton Moor have the ceiling height and the room sizes to do something worthwhile with, which is why knock-throughs and loft conversions are so common there. What they also have is lath and plaster, old joists, pipework added in layers over decades and the occasional surprise under a floor. We look at all of it before quoting, because the difference between a good period renovation and a bad one is almost entirely in what was found before the work started rather than during it.
Yes, and most of them are. It means planning the days so the room is out of use for as short a time as possible, keeping the water on where we can, sheeting the route in and out, and cleaning the house down at the end of every day. If it is the only bathroom in the property, say so when you call, because that changes the order the work is done in and it is much easier to plan for at the start than half way through.
Heaton Moor is a short run from us, so getting out to look at it is easy. The visit and the quote are normally within the week. The start date depends on what is already booked in, and we would rather tell you a real date a few weeks out than promise next Monday and let you down. Small jobs can often be slotted in sooner.
Yes. Replacing a toilet, retiling a shower, hanging a door properly, adding a socket or fixing a leak are all normal work for us, and they get the same visit and the same written price as anything bigger. If it turns out to be something you could sort yourself in half an hour, we will tell you that instead of invoicing you for it.
