Before you enquire

Useful answers for planning your project

Every property is different. These answers explain what helps us assess the work accurately and what to expect at the early stage.

Which areas do you cover?

COFAD works across Greater London and can also consider projects in Surrey, Essex, Hertfordshire and Kent. Send us the postcode so we can confirm availability.

Can you manage a complete renovation?

Yes. We can discuss coordinated refurbishment work that combines building, decorating, plumbing, electrical work, kitchens, bathrooms and finishing trades.

Do I need drawings before contacting you?

Not for an initial conversation. Photos, approximate measurements and a short brief are enough to start. Larger structural projects may require architectural or engineering information before a final quotation.

Are online estimates final quotations?

No. Online figures are useful for early planning, but the final scope and price depend on access, condition, specification and a site assessment.

Can I send photos and plans by WhatsApp?

Yes. Sending clear photos, plans and your postcode is usually the quickest way for us to understand the project before arranging the next step.
