Straightforward repairs, north of the city.
Longtown sits on the River Esk, around 20 minutes north of our Rome Street base along the A7. We cover the town and the surrounding villages as part of our regular area, so you do not have to rely on a firm travelling in from much further away.
Many of our jobs north of Carlisle are small but important: a gate that has dropped, a shed roof that has started leaking, a door that needs re-hanging, or a list of repairs a landlord needs done between tenants. We price clearly and get them done properly.

Longtown properties and the work they need.
Longtown is a planned town with long, straight streets of stone terraces, surrounded by farmland and small villages. Older terraces tend to need timber door and window repairs, plaster making good and floor levelling. Rural and edge-of-town properties bring outdoor work: fencing, gates, shed and outbuilding roofs, concrete bases and brickwork repairs.
We also help landlords with rental properties in and around Longtown, from one-off repairs to a full check-over between tenancies.
