The same reliable tradesman, wherever you are in the district. Fully insured 25+ years experience Based in Ivybridge [Call 07707 555728](tel:+447707555728)[Get a Free Quote](/contact) ## Serving the Whole of South Hams South Hams is one of the most beautiful parts of Devon, but beautiful landscapes come with unique property challenges. Coastal winds, driving rain, and the salt air take their toll on exterior paintwork, fencing, and exposed timber. Craig has been maintaining and improving South Hams properties for over twenty years and understands exactly what these homes need. Craig covers the entire South Hams district from his Ivybridge base. Whether you're in a period cottage in Kingsbridge, a coastal retreat in Salcombe, a townhouse in Totnes, or a rural farmhouse near Modbury, he provides the same personal service and attention to detail. There's no difference in quality based on location — every property gets Craig's full commitment. Many South Hams properties are older, character homes that require a tradesman who understands traditional construction methods. Lime plaster, stone walls, wooden sash windows, and slate roofs all demand specific skills and sympathetic treatment. Craig has extensive experience working on heritage properties and takes care to use appropriate materials and techniques. Holiday let and rental property owners across South Hams rely on Craig for quick turnaround maintenance between bookings. A bathroom repair, a fresh coat of paint, or a kitchen fix needs to happen fast and to a high standard when guests are arriving in days. Craig's responsiveness and reliability make him the go-to tradesman for property managers across the district.
