🔨 Repair Rather Than Replace – Saving Our Customer's Money in Bristol
Sometimes the best solution isn't the most expensive one.
Our Repairs Technician, Neil, recently attended a residential development in Bristol where significant rot had developed to the timber entrance door frame.
The initial reaction could easily have been to recommend a full frame replacement. However, after assessing the condition on site, we advised the Property Manager that a repair was a viable option, saving considerable cost while still delivering a professional and long-lasting result.
✅ Rotten timber removed
✅ Wood hardener applied
✅ Repairs completed and filled
✅ Full frame and threshold prepared and repainted
🎁 A little extra from CPC: Whilst completing the repair works, Neil also gave the entrance door a full repaint at no additional cost. It wasn't included within the quotation, but we wanted to leave the entrance looking its absolute best.
The end result was a smart, refreshed communal entrance without the disruption and expense of a full replacement.
At Community Property Care, we believe our role is to be more than just a contractor carrying out works. We act as trusted partners to Property Managers, providing honest advice, practical solutions and looking for opportunities to add value wherever we can.
In this case, that meant repairing rather than replacing, saving unnecessary expenditure and leaving the entrance looking better than when we arrived. A great example of our team living our values and helping make Property Managers' lives easier.
👏 Well done Neil.
