What we check on a property in Keresley
Every quote starts with a survey. These are the things we look at on property maintenance work in Keresley, and why each one changes the recommendation.
Paths, steps and trip hazards
Particularly on rental and commercial property, where there is a duty to the people using them. Uneven steps and lifted slabs are a common and avoidable liability.
The roof, from the ground up
Slipped or missing tiles, ridge mortar, flashings and the line of the roof. Most whole-property problems start here, and most of them are visible before they become expensive.
Structural cracking
Where cracks are, how wide and whether they appear inside and out. Most are not structural, and saying so clearly is as useful as flagging the ones that are.
Gutters and where the water goes
Whether gutters are clear, falling correctly and discharging into something that works. More damp traces back to a gutter than to anything else we look at.
Drainage and gullies
Blocked gullies, broken covers and downpipes discharging onto the ground beside a wall. Small, cheap and frequently the actual cause of a damp wall.
What the owner actually wants from the property
Keeping a family home, preparing to sell or running it as a rental lead to genuinely different recommendations. It is worth asking before producing a list.

Property Maintenance in Keresley — your questions answered
Still have a question? Our local team is happy to help — no pressure, no jargon.
Speak to us today0786 5778332Are you actually local to Keresley?
Yes. Keresley is around 3.1 miles north of the centre of Coventry, well within the area we work in every week. We are not a national firm subcontracting the job out.
Which areas near Keresley do you also cover?
The closest are Holbrooks (about 1 mile away), Brownshill Green (about 1.3 miles away), Radford (about 1.5 miles away) and Coundon (about 1.8 miles away). All of them are inside our normal working area, so a property on the boundary is no different to one in the middle of Keresley. If you are unsure which area you count as, the postcode settles it.
Do you charge for a survey or a quote?
No. Surveys and quotes are free and there is no obligation. What we will not do is price a job over the phone from a description, because the thing that changes the price is nearly always something you only find by looking — the state of the timber, what is behind the render, where the water is actually coming from.
How do I tell the difference between damp and condensation?
Condensation is widespread, worst in winter, concentrated on cold surfaces and in corners, behind furniture and around windows, and usually comes with black mould. Penetrating damp is localised, follows rain, and traces back to a defect outside. Rising damp is at low level with a tide mark and is far rarer than the damp-proofing industry implies. They need completely different work, which is why diagnosis comes before treatment.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes — offices, retail units, industrial premises and managed blocks. Commercial work usually means working around trading hours, agreeing method statements and risk assessments in advance, and understanding where the lease puts the repairing obligation. We are comfortable with all of that and will ask about it early rather than halfway through.
What are a landlord's main maintenance obligations?
In England, an EICR at least every five years and at the start of a new tenancy, an annual gas safety check by a Gas Safe registered engineer, smoke alarms on every storey and carbon monoxide alarms in rooms with a fixed combustion appliance, and the property must be fit for human habitation throughout the tenancy. The fitness duty is the broad one and it covers damp, disrepair and structural problems rather than a checklist.
How do you prioritise work when a property needs a lot doing?
Water first, always. Anything letting water into the building gets dealt with before anything else, because it is actively causing damage and everything else gets worse while it continues. Then structure and safety, then fabric that is deteriorating, then cosmetic work. A prioritised list with costs is more useful than one large number, and it is what we will give you.
