Information we collect

When you send an enquiry through our website, we collect your name, phone number, email address, postcode and the type of work you need.

When you call, text or email us, we keep the details you give us, and any photos or drawings you send.

If you become a customer, we also keep the job address, details of the work, quotes, invoices and payment records.

When you use this website, our hosting provider records technical information such as your IP address and browser type for security, and the site uses essential cookies (see Cookies below).

How we use your information

  • To reply to your enquiry and talk through the work you need.
  • To prepare a quote and arrange and carry out the work.
  • To invoice you and keep the business and tax records we must keep by law.
  • To keep this website secure and working properly.
  • To deal with any questions, complaints or claims about our work.
We do not sell your information, and we do not use it for marketing unless you ask us to.

Our lawful basis

  • Taking steps before a contract, and performing a contract: replying to your enquiry, quoting, and carrying out the work you ask for.
  • Legal obligation: keeping financial and tax records.
  • Legitimate interests: answering general enquiries, keeping the website secure, and dealing with claims about our work.
The tick box on our enquiry form confirms you are happy for us to contact you about your enquiry.

Who we share it with

We only share your information where it is needed, with:
  • our website hosting and email providers, who store and deliver it for us;
  • trusted tradespeople or suppliers working on your job, where they need your details to do it;
  • our accountant, for our business records;
  • HMRC or other authorities, when the law requires it.
Some of these providers may store data outside the UK. Where they do, we make sure appropriate safeguards are in place, as UK data protection law requires.

How long we keep it

  • Enquiries that don’t go ahead: up to 12 months after our last contact with you, then deleted.
  • Customer records: 6 years from the end of the company financial year they relate to, as UK law requires for company records, or longer where the law says so.
Enquiries sent through the website are also stored in the website’s database and deleted on the same timetable.
