Builders and property trades in Woodhouse

Woodhouse and its houses

Victorian terraces and back-to-backs between the university and Woodhouse Moor, most of them let to students. We cover every street in Woodhouse, from Woodhouse Street, Clarendon Road and the terraces facing Woodhouse Moor out to the edges of LS3.

What we are asked to do in Woodhouse

Victorian terraces bring the same handful of jobs again and again: chimney stacks on the party walls, damp low on solid walls, wiring that has been added to over decades, and kitchens and bathrooms squeezed into small rooms. Much of the housing is rented, so landlords make up a big share of the work.

• Slate repairs and chimney stacks
• Rewires and landlord EICRs
• Damp-damaged plaster and ceilings
• Repairs between tenancies
• Kitchens and bathrooms in tight rooms

How a job in Woodhouse runs

You ring or send the form, and a surveyor visits Woodhouse to see the job. The quote comes back in writing, split by trade, with photographs of what was found. If you go ahead, you get a start date and the order the trades will arrive in, and the same contact stays with the job until it is signed off.
