    Crossing the Border for Better Service

    Saltash is the gateway to Cornwall, and while it technically crosses the county boundary, it's actually closer to Craig's Ivybridge base than many Plymouth postcodes. The Tamar Bridge means Craig can reach Saltash properties quickly and efficiently, with no difference in service quality or pricing compared to his Devon clients.

    Saltash homeowners often find themselves in a gap between Devon and Cornwall tradesmen. Devon-based tradesmen see it as 'too far' and charge extra for crossing the bridge, while Cornish tradesmen are often based further west in Liskeard or beyond. Craig fills this gap perfectly — Saltash is part of his regular service area with no travel supplements or surcharges.

    The town has a wonderful mix of property types, from the historic waterfront buildings along Fore Street to the residential estates of Latchbrook and Pillmere. Craig has worked on properties across all areas of Saltash and understands the specific challenges each type presents — from the exposed stonework of older harbour-side buildings to the standard maintenance needs of modern housing developments.

    Whether you need a handyman for general repairs, a decorator for a fresh look, plumbing and electrical work, a kitchen fitted, or smoke alarms installed to meet regulations, Craig provides the full range of property services to Saltash residents. Same tradesman, same standards, same value — just the other side of the bridge.
