Yes, absolutely. We stand by the quality of our workmanship and provide a warranty on all work we complete. This means if any issue arises due to our workmanship within a fixed period (typically 3 months for most home improvement projects), we will return to fix it at no cost to you. We also pass along any manufacturer warranties on products or materials used (for instance, roofing materials, appliances, or fittings often come with their own guarantees). Our aim is to give you peace of mind and ensure you’re completely satisfied with the results. We take pride in doing the job right, but if something isn’t up to standard, just let us know and we will make it right promptly. Your home is a long-term investment, and our warranty is our promise of quality and reliability.

It depends on the project’s nature. Most interior home improvement projects (such as updating a kitchen, renovating a bathroom, or other non-structural changes) do not require planning permission, since they don’t alter the building’s exterior or structural footprint. However, if you’re considering major changes – for example, building an extension, converting a loft, altering the roof line, or constructing a new structure – you will likely need to obtain planning permission from your local council. Additionally, projects on listed buildings or in protected areas may have special rules. Home Expert 4U has experience with the UK planning process and local regulations: we can advise you on whether your project needs permission and even help handle the application paperwork if necessary. Regardless of planning permission, we always ensure our work complies with building regulations and safety standards.
We use high-quality, durable materials for all our projects, sourcing from trusted suppliers to ensure longevity and a great finish. The specific materials will depend on your project and preferences. For flooring, for example, we work with hardwood, engineered wood, laminate, vinyl, ceramic tiles, and natural stone – we’ll help you choose what’s best for each room based on durability and style. In kitchens and bathrooms, we use quality tiles, fixtures, and fittings that can withstand daily use (we favour trusted brands for plumbing fixtures and cabinetry). For roof repairs, we use materials that match or improve your existing roof (like high-grade shingles, slates, or waterproof membranes). When building custom wardrobes or carpentry projects, we select solid timber or robust MDF and hardware that ensure a sturdy, beautiful result. During the planning phase, we’ll discuss all material options with you, so you have a choice in style, colour, and quality. Our goal is to use materials that fit your design, budget, and the long-term needs of your property – we never compromise on quality.
Yes. We offer custom design services for projects like kitchen remodels and built-in wardrobes. If you have a dream kitchen in mind or need a storage solution tailored to an awkward space, our design team can work with you to create a layout and look that fits your needs and style. We’ll collaborate with you on the design details – from the placement of appliances and the style of cabinets in a kitchen, to the interior configuration of a wardrobe for maximum storage (shelves, hanging space, shoe racks, etc.). Don’t worry if you’re not sure exactly what you want; we can provide ideas, design drawings, or material samples to help you visualize the final outcome. Throughout the process, we focus on balancing functionality and aesthetics: the result will be a beautiful, custom-built kitchen or wardrobe that is uniquely yours and enhances your home’s value.
The cost of a project can vary widely based on the type of work, size of the space, and the materials you choose. Because each home improvement is unique, we prefer to provide a personalized quote after discussing your specific needs. For context, a small project (like fixing some drywall and repainting a room) might be a few hundred pounds, whereas a larger project (such as a full bathroom renovation or installing a new kitchen) could range in the thousands. Extensive renovations or extensions naturally cost more due to the bigger scope and multiple trades involved. When you contact Home Expert 4U, we’ll arrange a visit to scope out the work and then give you a detailed, itemized estimate so you can see where each cost comes from. We aim to be competitive and transparent with our pricing – there are no hidden fees, and we can often suggest options to tailor the project to fit your budget. Remember, investing in quality workmanship can save money in the long run by preventing future issues, and we strive to deliver excellent value for the cost.
Yes, we do – all initial consultations and quotes are free of charge. We believe you should have a clear idea of what your project will involve before committing. When you reach out to us, we’ll typically schedule a visit to your property at a convenient time. During this no-obligation consultation, we’ll discuss your ideas, offer suggestions, and take any necessary measurements. After we fully understand your needs, we provide a detailed written quote outlining the recommended scope of work and the associated costs. This quote is free and comes with no strings attached – it’s then up to you to decide if and when you want to proceed. We’re happy to answer all your questions during the consultation, and we strive to make the process informative and pressure-free. Our goal is to give you all the information you need to make the best decision for your home.
Absolutely. Our team is composed of fully qualified, experienced professionals, and we are fully insured for your protection. Each tradesperson on our team has the appropriate certifications and training for their specialty. For instance, our electricians are NIC/EIC certified and our plumbers are Gas Safe registered, which are essential qualifications in the UK to ensure safe electrical and gas work. We also carry comprehensive public liability insurance, so in the unlikely event of an accident or damage, you are covered. Beyond the paperwork, our crew brings years of hands-on experience in their trades – from carpenters and roofers to tilers and decorators. We take safety and quality seriously: we follow all health and safety guidelines on site, and we won’t send anyone to your home whom we wouldn’t trust in our own. When you hire Home Expert 4U, you can have peace of mind knowing your property is in capable and responsible hands.
The timeline for a home renovation can vary greatly depending on the scope of work. A small project (like a guest bathroom update or a simple flooring replacement) might take just one to two weeks, while a full kitchen renovation could take around 4–6 weeks. Larger projects, such as a complete home refurbishment or an extension, may span several months. During our initial consultation, we’ll discuss your specific project and give you a realistic timeline tailored to the work involved. Rest assured, we plan carefully and coordinate all trades to stay on schedule, keeping you updated throughout the process so you know exactly what to expect.
Yes, we handle all plumbing and electrical aspects of kitchen and bathroom renovations so you don’t have to hire separate contractors. We provide a complete service for these projects. This means if we’re renovating your bathroom, we will take care of installing or moving pipes, fitting sinks, toilets, and showers, as well as all the necessary wiring for lighting, fans, or heated towel rails. In a kitchen project, we handle the plumbing for sinks or dishwashers and the electrical work for lighting and appliance connections. We have qualified plumbers and electricians on our team (or trusted subcontractors) who work under our coordination. All such work is done to current building codes and safety standards – for example, electrical work will be certified, and plumbing will be tested for leaks. By managing these tasks in-house, we ensure the project progresses smoothly and meets all regulatory requirements. The result is a fully functional kitchen or bathroom, with plumbing and electrics safely installed and ready to use the moment the project is finished.
Do you offer flooring installation and what types of flooring do you work with?
A: Yes, we provide flooring installation services and can work with almost any type of flooring you have in mind. Our team has experience installing hardwood and engineered wood floors, laminate flooring, vinyl and LVT (luxury vinyl tile), ceramic and porcelain tiles, as well as stone flooring like marble or slate. If you’re not sure which flooring is best for a particular room, we’re happy to advise on the pros and cons – for example, recommending water-resistant flooring for bathrooms or durable options for high-traffic areas. We handle the entire process: removing old flooring (if needed), preparing and levelling the subfloor, installing the new material with professional precision, and adding finishing touches like trim or sealant. We can also refinish or repair existing hardwood floors, and fix minor flooring issues if you don’t need a full replacement. The goal is to give you beautiful, long-lasting floors that enhance your home’s look and functionality.
Yes, we handle all kinds of roof repair jobs to keep your home safe and dry. Common roofing issues we fix include leaky roofs, missing or broken tiles/slates, damaged flashing around chimneys or vents, and guttering problems. When you have a leak, we’ll trace the source (whether it’s a cracked tile, worn seal, or clogged gutter) and repair it to prevent further water damage. For damaged roofing materials, we can replace shingles, tiles, or patch flat roofing membranes to restore the integrity of your roof. We also take care of resealing and weatherproofing as needed, making sure your roof can withstand the elements. In cases of more extensive damage, we can perform partial re-roofing or reinforce the roof structure, and if you’re adding an extension, we can install the new roofing for that as well. Our roofing team works efficiently and with safety in mind, and before we finish, we’ll double-check that everything is secure and your roof is in great condition.
Yes, we do brickwork and garden improvement projects as part of our services. For brick walls, we can construct new ones (for example, building a garden boundary wall, a decorative feature wall, or the brickwork for a home extension) and we also repair existing brick structures. If you have a crumbling or cracked brick wall, we’ll assess whether it needs partial rebuilding or just repointing (refilling the mortar joints) to restore its strength and appearance. We match new bricks and mortar to the existing structure for a seamless look. In terms of garden repairs and outdoor work, we handle tasks like fixing or replacing fences and gates, repairing patios, pathways, or driveways, and restoring other outdoor features that might have been damaged by weather or wear. Whether it’s rebuilding a leaning garden wall, mending a broken fence panel, or laying new patio slabs, our team applies the same level of craftsmanship outdoors as we do indoors. We understand that the exterior of your property is just as important, and we’ll ensure any outdoor project is done to a high standard so your garden or exterior space is safe, functional, and attractive.
Yes, we handle plasterboard (drywall) installation as well as repairs to existing walls and ceilings. If you’re renovating or reconfiguring a space, we can install new plasterboard partitions or ceilings, including the metal or wood framework behind it, to create the rooms or shapes you need. We securely fix the plasterboard and then finish the joints and corners with tape and joint compound (or a skim coat of plaster) so you get a smooth, seamless surface ready for painting or decorating. We also take care of plasterboard repairs: for example, if there’s a hole, crack, or water damage in your wall or ceiling, we can cut out the damaged section and patch it with new plasterboard, then blend and plaster it so it matches the surrounding area. Our team works neatly to minimize dust and will protect your furnishings during the process. The end result is a clean, solid wall or ceiling – you won’t be able to tell where the repair was. Proper plasterboard installation and finishing is crucial for a polished look in your home, and we have the expertise to get it done right.
Yes – no project is too big or too small for Home Expert 4U. We take on jobs of all sizes, ranging from minor home repairs to extensive renovation projects. Whether you’re a homeowner with a quick fix (like repairing a leaky tap or patching a bit of drywall), a landlord needing to spruce up a rental property between tenants, or planning a full home renovation or extension, our team is ready to help. We give the same care and attention to a small one-day job as we do to a multi-week major remodel. Our services are scalable: we can dedicate a single handyman for a simple task or deploy a full project team (plumbers, electricians, carpenters, etc.) for a large-scale project. In every case, we manage the work efficiently and professionally. We’ve successfully handled everything from installing a single door to coordinating an entire property refurbishment. The bottom line is that we’re flexible and committed to meeting our clients’ needs — you’ll get quality workmanship and friendly service no matter the size of your project.
