Questions

Working in Cosham

What decorating work do you do in Cosham?

Across Cosham (PO6) it is mostly interior decorating, exterior masonry paint, gutter clearing and wash downs on interwar terraces and semis, plus the wash downs, gutter clearing and exterior maintenance that goes alongside all of it. Cosham is largely Victorian and interwar terraces, which means shared party walls, rendered or painted front elevations facing the street, and access down the side that has to be worked around rather than ignored. Every job starts with a look at the property rather than a price guessed over the phone.

Do you charge extra to come out to Cosham?

No. Cosham is on the doorstep of the Portsmouth base, so there is no travel charge and a first look at the job can usually be arranged within a day or two.

Have you worked in Cosham before?

Yes. Cosham sits right at the top of the island, so it is a five minute run and easy to look at a job the same week. Give us a ring and we will tell you what we normally find on properties around Cosham High Street and what yours is likely to need before anything gets started.

Does the type of property in Cosham change the job?

It does, mostly in terms of access and prep. Cosham is largely Victorian and interwar terraces where the front elevation is rendered or painted, sits straight on the pavement, and has decades of coatings on it already. That means checking what is underneath before adding to it, because a sound-looking wall with a failing coat under the top one will take your new paint off with it. Access is the other thing: side alleys, shared passageways and parking all get sorted before the day rather than on it. Inside, these houses are hall, stairs and landing jobs as often as they are rooms, and that is the one worth having done properly.

Can you decorate the inside and clean the outside on the same visit to Cosham?

Yes, and that is the main reason people use us rather than two separate firms. The same team that repaints your render in Cosham can wash it down and clear your gutters afterwards, so it is one quote, one visit to arrange and one number to ring. Plenty of customers have the interior done over the winter and the exterior and the wash down the following summer.

How soon could you start a job in Cosham?

Cosham is around 2 miles from the Portsmouth base, so getting out to look and quote is quick, normally within a couple of days and always inside a week. Actually starting depends on the diary and on the weather if it is an exterior, and we would rather give you a real date than an optimistic one.
