Edinburgh Property Works is a small family run business and is the trading name of Russell & Telfer Ltd. My Father started R&T back in 1963. Working on lots of different small projects for my wonderful private clients I enjoy attending to a variety of maintenance repairs. From Bathroom works, Furniture assembly and repair, Detailed Silicone replacement, Joinery works, Timber bed frame repairs and central spine strengthening, Luxury Vinyl Tile flooring, Bath panels, Shower screen replacement and repair assessment, Timber window repairs and Ironmongery replacement, Kitchen cabinet repairs, Draught proofing & Pipe boxing access panels to name but a few. Okay, so Silicone replacement really needs more of a mention here. I get enquiries about Silicone repairs from leaking showers every week and we have all seen it before – silicone smeared around a bath or shower tray that looks like it was applied with an old paintbrush! Or your shower tray and screen is leaking due to defective silicone or incorrect installation and it’s also black and mouldy – Yuk! I can help here and can do so much better – with good technique and careful, repeat careful, preparation. It’s so not a “quick job” and the only way to achieve a good finish is to spend a lot of time removing the old silicone and silicone residue and preparing the joints, which is key for application of new, high quality bacteria resistant silicone sealant. In almost all situations it requires temporary removal of the existing shower screen to carryout the repair properly as recommended by all shower screen manufacturers installation instructions – no paintbrush needed – that’s a promise! I get many enquiries about clients shower screens leaking, either due to the silicone joints or grout line joints failing, incorrect installation and position of the shower screen. The majority of shower screen leaks come from the vertical wall profiles of the showers screens and can be repaired although depending on the age of the shower screen, its sometime more cost effective to replace the screen – always happy to look at and provide feedback on your shower screen! Most hotels have their own maintenance staff and it’s always a pleasure to work alongside these guys and give support and a helping hand when their maintenance workload is maxed out. General maintenance repairs can sometimes back up and that’s where I come in. It might be a one off repair to a door lock, self closer, replacement ironmongery or it’s a broken shower tray that needs replaced (carefully without demolishing the place!). Working closely with a long established Edinburgh plumbing and heating family firm, replacing shower screens and bathroom vanity units and a registered installer of “Multipanel” for shower and bathrooms, a decorative wet wall panel system manufactured by Edinburgh based Grant Westfield. Edinburgh Property Works also carry out maintenance to city centre offices, in addition to very varied maintenance works for certain Edinburgh Museums and College property. Working in high end rental property – where the finish needs to be “top notch”. Landlords who are looking for quality, have come to the right place and can rest assured that great care will be taken to enhance their investment. From design ideas through to completion of works, taking time to make sure it’s just right. So, that’s pretty much it! Wanting to help you achieve the perfect property solution. Easy to talk to and keen to do a really good job, professional, reliable and courteous, and truly enjoy my work. As they say – “good things come to those who wait”! But please don’t wait too long, I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon! Please send me an initial enquiry via email with a full description of the works you are looking to have done, with your timeframe and full property address in Edinburgh. Please include in your email – photos of the works in question, this will help me determine if I can be of assistance to you. Thanks Kenneth Telfer Edinburgh Property Works Reviews snippet: We were very happy with a repair to our shower door carried out by Kenneth. He communicated well and was extremely obliging. Overall it was a a very positive experience and we would definitely use Kennneth in the future if we needed any more work done. || Lesley: Kenneth replaced our faulty shower screen and did a fantastic job. He replaced the silicon around the bath, regrouted some tiles as well as fixing and touching up some smaller areas that he noticed needed attention. He was meticulous in his work and the bath and shower are now gleaming as if they were brand new. He provided an excellent service from start to finish, turning up exactly when he said he would. He explained everything he was doing and gave us tips for keeping the silicone and grouting clean. We needed the shower screen replaced within a short timescale due to the imminent arrival of visitors from abroad and Kenneth pulled out the stops to ensure the work was done in plenty of time. We would highly recommend Kenneth to anyone needing similar work done and will likely contact him again before too long to upgrade our other shower enclosure. || Kamila Trizuliak: Kenneth is very knowledgeable and have provided us with few options for the shower works and storage unit we needed done. He’s done an amazing job to the highest standard and has been very professional and flexible with our circumstances. I would highly recommend him and we will definitely look for further opportunities to work with him again.
