After boarding up, we provide written confirmation of the work done and schedule a return visit for permanent repairs, usually within 24-48 hours, depending on the need for specialist parts or heritage joinery.

For Edwardian terraces along Topsfield Parade or Park Rd, we ensure the original frame is retained.
