Working in Lincoln: what we plan for

Local property mix: Steep stone terraces through Uphill, Victorian housing around the West End, and growing student blocks near the university.

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

Stretch-in fitting — the long-lasting method — with gripper rods, fresh underlay, kicker stretching and clean door-bar trims.
