Describe the jobWhat customers say
Kevin and Ryan completed two lengths of fencing in our garden and we are incredibly happy with their work. Both are professional, respectful and communicate effectively as they go along. They alerted us to any potential problems and always had a solution ready, which made the job as smooth as possible. I would have KJL Maintenance Ltd complete any work both inside and out as I know we always get a good job, reasonably priced with trusted professionals. Thank you.
Thank you so much Kevin for building mum a new downstairs shower room. It’s fabulous, and mum is so pleased with it. Your attention to detail, workmanship, tidiness and work-rate are admirable. Everything was completed on time with no issues. Every day the job was left cleaned, hoovered and tidied. Cannot recommend Kevin enough. The shower room took up an old dining room: all electrics, plumbing, installation and decorating was completed in 2 weeks. Fantastic work.
How a job runs
No surprises: you know what happens next at every step.
Send the form or call with what you’re planning. A couple of photos of the room help us understand the job.
We come out free of charge to measure up, talk through what you want and point out anything worth knowing before you decide.
You get a free written quote for the work, so you know where you stand before anything starts.
We agree a start date, keep you posted as the job goes on and leave the room clean and ready to use.
Every maintenance job is different, so we quote each one after seeing it rather than from a price list. Visits and quotes are free, and the quote is in writing, so you know the cost before anything starts. Payment terms and any deposit are agreed with you once you’ve accepted the quote.
If you have a budget in mind, say so when you get in touch: it helps us suggest the right options.
Yes. Small jobs are part of what we do, and the visit and quote are free. We can often fit them in around bigger ones.
The brief says homes and small businesses. [To confirm: landlords, letting agents and commercial premises.]
We work in Ipswich and about 20 miles around in Suffolk: Woodbridge, Felixstowe, Kesgrave, Needham Market, Stowmarket, Hadleigh and the villages between. We don’t work in Essex. A little further out in Suffolk? Ask: it often depends on the job.
Yes. We carry public and employers’ liability insurance (policy CHB15231168XB), and we’re a registered waste carrier (CBDU377130), so waste from your job is taken away legally.
