Living in Holborn comes with a mix of old and modern properties. Some buildings have stood for decades and need regular upkeep to stay safe. Others are newer but still face the usual wear and tear from daily use. Whether you’re living in your home, renting it out, or managing it on someone’s behalf, keeping everything in working order takes time, effort, and consistency.
At Pearl Lemon Home Repairs, we offer help with that quietly, reliably, and without trying to sell you things you don’t need. Our focus is on doing the work that keeps your home safe and functional, from basic repairs to regular checks and seasonal tasks.
Services We Offer
We handle most of the day-to-day and long-term maintenance tasks that come up in a home. Below is what we regularly help with in Holborn:
Routine Home Inspections
These checks help catch problems early before they turn into expensive repairs. We look at the condition of your roof, brickwork, walls, windows, and doors. We also inspect your heating system, plumbing, and electrical wiring. If we find something that may cause issues later, we’ll let you know. After the visit, we send a written summary of anything worth noting, so you can decide what to do next.
Emergency Repairs
Sometimes things go wrong without warning. A pipe bursts. The heating stops. The lights won’t turn on. These aren’t things you can plan for, but they still need to be handled quickly. If you call us with an urgent issue, we aim to respond promptly and fix the problem before it causes more damage.
Seasonal Maintenance
Each season brings its own challenges. In winter, heating systems and insulation become more important. In autumn, fallen leaves can block gutters. Spring often reveals roof damage or outdoor wear. In summer, gardens or outside areas may need extra attention. We offer seasonal check-ups and small jobs that prepare your home for these changes.
Plumbing and Heating
We deal with blocked pipes, dripping taps, weak water flow, cold radiators, and broken boilers. We also offer boiler servicing and pipe inspections if you want to check everything is working as it should. If something’s leaking or not heating properly, we’ll find the cause and sort it out.
Electrical Work
Electrical problems often start small and get worse over time. We can repair or replace broken sockets, flickering lights, and faulty wiring. We also inspect fuse boxes and carry out full rewiring if needed. If you’re renting out your property, we also provide checks for safety certificates.
Exterior Repairs and General Upkeep
Keeping the outside of your property in good condition helps prevent deeper issues. We handle small roof repairs, clean brickwork or render, repaint worn areas, and fix uneven paths or steps. If damp is starting to build near external walls, we’ll take a look and help prevent further damage.
Garden and Outdoor Space
In Holborn, some homes have gardens, patios, or balconies that are often left untended. We offer regular maintenance or one-time clean-ups. That includes mowing, trimming, weeding, clearing overgrowth, and removing pests or rubbish. If you’ve inherited a space that hasn’t been touched in a while, we’ll bring it back into shape.
Why Work With Us?
Homes in Holborn often share walls, plumbing, or wiring with neighbouring flats or buildings. That means work needs to be done carefully, with attention to how it affects the whole structure. We take the time to assess your space properly. We won’t rush through the job or recommend unnecessary changes.
We understand that most people don’t want to be bothered with complicated plans or long explanations. We’ll simply tell you what’s going on, what needs to be done (if anything), and carry out the work clearly and quietly.
