Building around your home

Property repairs in Solihull.

Is your home in a state of disrepair? Discuss the building, roofing and interior work that needs attention, starting with what you have noticed.

Put the right things right.

Put the right things right.

A repair enquiry does not need a perfect diagnosis. Explain the problem in your own words, where you have noticed it and whether it has changed. We can discuss the relevant building and finishing services, from an exterior concern to rooms that need attention. Safely taken photos and any previous repair information can help bring the starting point into focus.

  • Building repairs
  • Roofing and wall repairs
  • Interior repair and finishing

01 / Property repairs

Building and exterior concerns.

Describe the parts of the property that need attention, whether that is brickwork, a wall or another part of the building. Include what you have seen and when it first became apparent. A photograph may help explain the concern, but it does not establish the cause or suitable repair on its own. We can discuss the work and any connected services your enquiry may need. Tell us about previous repairs or existing advice rather than assuming the same approach will be appropriate again. The next step should be based on the actual property and proposed scope.

  • Wall and exterior concerns
  • Previous work and observations

02 / Property repairs

Roofing and connected damage.

A roofing concern may sit alongside a problem noticed inside the home. Tell us about both so the enquiry describes the complete picture. For example, explain the location of an interior mark as well as any safely visible issue outside, without trying to decide the cause from appearance alone. Roofing repairs are part of our service range and can be discussed with associated building or finishing work. Take photographs only from a safe position; there is no need to climb onto a roof to contact us. Include any information you already have about earlier work.

Interior repairs and the finish afterwards.

Once you know which parts of a room need attention, think about the finish you want the repaired space to have. Walls, ceilings and flooring may all feature in the discussion, particularly if the repair is part of a wider refurbishment. Explain the existing concern before choosing purely cosmetic work, so the appropriate approach can be considered. We provide plastering, flooring and refurbishment services alongside building repairs. Describe the affected room and any other changes you have in mind, then confirm the repair and finishing scope together rather than treating them as separate assumptions.

A useful starting point

Bring your ideas.
We’ll talk them through.

Write down what you have noticed, where it occurs and how long it has been present. Mention whether it has changed and any previous work or advice. Photos are optional and should only be taken where you can do so safely. Include your location and any information about access to the affected area. If you are also considering refurbishment, describe that separately within the same enquiry so the repair need remains clear.

Moving your plans forward

A straightforward
next step.

  1. 01

    Describe the concern

    Use your own observations rather than a guessed diagnosis. Explain the affected area and any related issues in other parts of the home.

  2. 02

    Discuss the appropriate work

    Consider the relevant building, roofing and finishing services. Confirm what information or assessment the particular concern needs before the scope is decided.

  3. 03

    Plan the connected finish

    Discuss associated plastering, flooring or refurbishment and how it fits with the repair. Agree the next step for the property and work involved.

Before we begin

Your questions.
A clearer picture.

For advice about the work you are considering, tell us about your own property.

What kinds of property repair can I ask about?

Our service range includes building repairs, roofing and wall repairs, and interior repair and finishing work. Describe the concern and your location so we can discuss the relevant services and what information is needed next.

Do I need to know what caused the problem?

No. Describe what you have noticed, where it is and whether it has changed. Avoid treating a short message or photograph as a confirmed diagnosis. Existing reports, advice or previous repair details can help explain the starting point.

Can a repair include plastering or flooring afterwards?

Yes, connected finishing work can be discussed as part of the enquiry. Tell us which rooms are affected and the result you would like, so repair requirements and cosmetic changes can be considered together.

Should I send photographs?

Photographs can help explain an enquiry but are optional. Take them only from a safe position. You do not need to climb onto a roof, enter an unsafe loft or access a damaged area just to contact us.

Can I combine several repairs in one enquiry?

Yes. List the different concerns and their locations in the property. Include any wider refurbishment plans as well, while making clear which issues need attention and which changes you would like to make.

What will the repair cost and how long will it take?

That depends on the cause, extent, access and agreed work. Share the available details so the next step can be discussed for your home. This page does not offer a fixed repair price or standard completion date.
