Harefield sits right at the top corner of the borough, with Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire close by.
It is a small place and the jobs are small. Harefield Hospital is here too, which makes it a place people know even if they have never visited.
What we find in a place like this
Rented houses and small blocks, where the landlord has done a decent job of the finish and not of the doors.
The commonest fault is a closer that is too weak or has been taken off. After that a front door that has been replaced with a stock door and no certificate.
Retirement housing
Retirement flats and sheltered schemes have a warden or scheme manager who knows the building. We work through each flat door and the communal doors with them.
The things we look at in these buildings are the doors to the flats, the stair or lobby doors and the doors to shared rooms, such as a lounge or laundry.
Visits and travel
We come from Luton. Harefield is at the far end of our Uxbridge area, so we try to book it on a day when we are already out at Northwood, Denham or Ruislip.
If that is not possible we will tell you when we give you the price.
Which fire service
Harefield is in the London Borough of Hillingdon, so London Fire Brigade is the fire and rescue authority.
Price
From around £250 plus VAT for a small building.
Questions we get asked
Do you cover Harefield every week?
No. We book it with other work nearby, so we may suggest a date.
Can I send you photos first?
Yes, but we cannot price an inspection from photos alone. We still have to look at each door.
Send the postcode and a rough number of doors. A price comes back the same day.
