Why people in Camden choose ExpertHome

Local property mix: Listed Georgian terraces in Hampstead and Bloomsbury, mansion blocks in Belsize Park, ex-council mid-rise in Kentish Town.

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

IKEA's PAX, MALM, BESTÅ, KALLAX and METOD ranges have specific assembly quirks our handymen know inside out — including the right combinations for sliding doors, drawer dampers and lighting kits.

  • PAX, MALM, BESTÅ and more
  • Wall-fixing where required
  • Packaging removal on request
  • Stability and safety checks

How we deliver this in Camden
