Why people in Peterborough choose ExpertHome
Local property mix: Large new-build estates surround a small Georgian core; Hampton is one of the UK's biggest planned communities.
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
