    What's the difference between a repair and planned works?

    Reactive replacement is usually smaller scale repairs to your home, such as a broken window handle or leak in either the kitchen or bathroom. When we attend, these repairs are usually completed within a few hours.

    Planned maintenane is bigger, full replacements in your home, such as kitchen and bathroom replacements, full roof replacements, boiler replacement, full home windows and door replacements. This type of work tends to take longer than a few hours and will often take a day or more to be completed when we attend.
