Why people call us

Three things we never compromise on

1. We turn up when we say.

We will give you a time, and we will be there. If something changes on our end, we ring ahead. No sitting in all day waiting for a tradesperson who never arrives.

2. The price is agreed before the work starts.

Send a photo, get a quote, decide whether to go ahead. No call-out fee in Witham for a quick look. No surprises on the invoice. What we say it costs is what you pay.

3. We leave the place tidier than we found it.

We treat every home like it is our nan's. Tools are put away, dust is wiped down, and the kettle will probably get offered before we leave. Every time.

Before you book

Questions people usually ask

Plain answers. No small print, no surprises.

Q1 How do I get a price?

The quickest way is to send a photo of the job through our online enquiry form at /contact. We look at the photo and reply with a price. Some jobs are a fixed price and some are hourly, and we tell you which before you decide. After the first hour we bill in half hours rather than rounding up to the next one. If something turns up that the photo could not show, we tell you what it means for the price before we carry on.

Q2 Is there a minimum job size?

No. That is rather the point. We take on the small jobs most tradespeople won't drive out for. A single dripping tap, one shelf, one door hinge. If it has been bothering you, it is worth sorting. Most single small jobs start from around £35 to £45.

Q3 How far in advance do I need to book?

It varies by time of year, but we usually have availability within the same week for most jobs in Witham and CM8. Check the diary section above for the current week's open slots. For jobs further afield, allow a few extra days. Urgent jobs are considered on a case-by-case basis.

Q4 Are you insured?

Yes. Vivid Property Repairs carries full public liability insurance. You can ask to see the certificate when we arrive, or we can email a copy before the visit.

Q5 Will it always be the same person who comes?

Yes. Vivid Property Repairs is a small family business, and we do not send strangers. Where a job needs a specialist we bring in someone we have worked with for years, and we tell you beforehand who is coming. Known faces at the door every time. That is deliberate, and it is one of the reasons customers come back.

Q6 What happens if a job turns out to be bigger than expected?

We will tell you before we start, not after. If the job is bigger than the photo suggested, we will explain what is involved and give you a revised price. You decide whether to go ahead. No nasty surprises on the invoice.

Q7 How do I pay?

Payment is due on the day the work is completed. We accept bank transfer, cash, or card. An invoice is always provided. We do not ask for upfront deposits on standard small jobs.
