Why people in Canterbury choose ExpertHome

Two universities create a tight student handover window every July. Local property mix: Listed timber-framed stock in the medieval core, Victorian terraces through Wincheap, and student HMOs near the universities.

Sensitive cleaning on period stock

Period properties need a slightly gentler touch — original sash windows, lime-plaster walls, lath-and-plaster ceilings and softwood floorboards don't behave like modern equivalents. We use lower-pressure techniques in old kitchens and bathrooms, and we know which finishes (e.g. shellac on a Georgian banister) shouldn't see modern solvents. On handyman jobs we use timber-fixings on lath-and-plaster ceilings rather than plasterboard plugs.

From divans to ottoman lifts, bunks and high-sleepers, we assemble safely and check every connection.
