Common in Thornaby-on-Tees

### Snapped UPVC and composite cylinders
Across the Teesdale and Village estates the original euro-cylinders are now beyond service life and snap regularly. We carry 3-star Kitemarked anti-snap cylinders sized to your door - fast fix with 3-star Kitemarked hardware (check your own insurer&#x27;s requirements).

### Mid-life faults on Teesdale-era housing
Bathrooms with failing silicone, heating systems with seized valves, dropped composite doors and cracked render around openings. We fix the cause, not just the symptom.

### Plaster cracking on post-war estate stock
Mandale and Stainsby Hill estate houses commonly show plaster cracking at ceiling junctions and around openings from settlement and seasonal movement. We re-skim or patch with a proper finish, not filler over a paint.

### Leaking flat-roof extensions
1970s/80s flat-roof kitchen and dining extensions are now beyond felt-patch repair. EPDM rubber or warm-deck replacements, plus full internal making-good.

### Rental turnaround between tenants
Across the TS17 rental market we run regular end-of-tenancy jobs - locks, plaster, doors, decoration, plumbing - invoiced direct to landlord or agent so the property is back on the market in days.
