Local realities in Oxford — and how we adapt

Two universities with a tightly squeezed rental market; the city has some of the highest house-price-to-earnings ratios in the UK. Local property mix: Listed central terraces, Victorian artisan housing through Jericho, and large family homes in Summertown and North Oxford.

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.

What's included

Wall and ceiling fittings, roller, Roman, Venetian, wooden and motorised blinds — plus curtain poles and tracks — fitted square and to BS EN 13120 cord-safety standards.

  • All blind and pole types
  • Wall and ceiling fixings
  • Cord-safety compliance
  • Tidy-up included
