Working in Hemel Hempstead: what we plan for

Local property mix: Post-war new-town terraces and crescents, with a Georgian Old Town and new flats around the Maylands corridor.

Knowing the new-build quirks

New-build estates have specific patterns — plasterboard partitions instead of brick, dot-and-dab kitchens, dust-laden trickle vents that haven't been cleaned since handover, and snag-list paintwork that's easy to mark. Our handymen carry spacer fixings for dot-and-dab walls (so plasterboard doesn't tear), and our cleaning teams pay special attention to fine builder's dust that lingers in extractor housings months after handover.

What's included

From a single picture shelf to a wall of storage, we fit shelves with fixings rated to the load — and we measure twice so they're level across the room.

  • Floating and bracketed shelves
  • Heavy-duty fixings
  • Level alignment guaranteed
  • Tidy-up included
