Why Trade Force

Specialist Works done properly.

Specialist masonry, chimney and repointing work across Central Scotland.

Scaffolded chimney rebuilds, lead flashing renewal, brick repair, lime repointing and the one-off jobs other firms turn down.

We come out to survey every job and price it ourselves. The survey and quote are free, with no high-pressure sales. We turn up when we say and leave the place tidier than we found it. We check every job ourselves before we leave.

Ethan at tradeforce construction did a plastering repair to the ceiling of our living room and we couldn't be happier with the quality and speed of service and the end product of the job.

What’s included

Every specialist works job, the same standard.

01

Chimney Stack Repair

Loose pots reset, cracked flaunching renewed, eroded brickwork rebuilt or roughcast over. Lead flashing renewed at the same time so the job is done once.

02

Repointing

Lime mortar repointing on older properties, cement on modern ones. Right mortar for the wall, raked back deep enough to actually last.

03

Lead Flashings

Code 4 and code 5 lead, dressed and pointed. Replacing tired or DIY-applied silicone with proper lead detail where it should have been from day one.

04

FAQ

Specialist Works questions, answered.

Anything else? Ring or WhatsApp us and ask.

Do you do scaffolding?

Yes, scaffolding is included for any work above eaves height. We put the cost in the quote, so there are no surprises.

Is the chimney still useful?

If you have a working fire or stove, yes, keep it weather-tight. If the chimney is decommissioned, we can repair it, cap it or take it down to roof line, depending on what you want.

Lime or cement mortar?

Lime for stone or pre-1919 brick, cement for modern brick. Wrong mortar locks moisture in and damages the wall faster than no mortar at all.

Is the survey and quote really free?

Yes. Free survey, free quote, no obligation and no high-pressure sales. You get a fixed price up front, and that is the price. To book yours, get in touch.

Are you insured?

Yes. We have £5 million public liability insurance for all our work.

Google reviews

Words from those we’ve worked with.

We recently had Ethan plaster our hall and three bedrooms, and we honestly could not be happier with the result. He has done an absolutely fantastic job and we are extremely impressed with the finish throughout. The walls are perfectly smooth and ready to decorate.

Kieren

I can't recommend Ethan highly enough. He plastered our entire 4-bedroom house and completed the job to absolute perfection. From start to finish, Ethan was polite, professional, and always respectful of our home.
