Coverage from our A556 / Chester Road workshop
Hartford's Edwardian villas and Hartford Park estate homes. Practical route via M6 J19 — 8 min; 25 min from stockton heath.
We group landlords surveys around Hartford with the nearby villages — Davenham, Northwich, Weaverham — so a whole run of properties can be done on one visit day.
The default spec — before we've even seen the house
Across Hartford landlords projects, the short list is short on purpose:
- Spring-assist cordless roller blinds — child-safe by design
- PVC-faced wooden Venetians — clean with a damp cloth between tenants
- Blackout roller in tenant-neutral colours (stone, slate, mushroom)
- Waterproof ABS shutters for bathrooms with poor extract
The final pick depends on the room, the light and the openings — decided on the survey, not by a call-centre.
What it usually costs
Typical spend £400–£900 per property for a 2-bed flat, £900–£1,600 for a 3-bed house. Trade discount kicks in from the fourth property.
Whole-house Hartford projects in this bracket usually sit within the £2,500 – £7,000 band. Every figure on our quote is fixed and 90-day valid — no follow-up phone call to "re-cost".
Our process — adjusted for landlords
We survey with your inventory clerk if you want — every measurement photographed and filed by property reference, and re-fits during void periods are prioritised so nothing sits on a spare-key run.
Hartford survey days are grouped so travel stays tight — the workshop is 25 min from stockton heath, on the M6 J19 — 8 min corridor.
Where we've earned this pitch
We hold spare mechanisms, chains and end-caps in the workshop for the systems we most often specify to landlord clients — so a snapped chain during a tenancy is fixed inside a week, not a fortnight.
The single biggest cause of landlord blind call-outs is the pull-cord — every product we specify for BTL is cordless or breakaway by design.
