Trades in Chelsea.

Chelsea's housing is defined by its period buildings converted into flats — from the artists' cottages off the King's Road to the terraces around Sloane Square. Converted buildings reward trades who understand shared services: stopcocks and risers serving several flats, freeholder consents, and neighbours a wall away. Every CS Services trade works to that reality — access and isolation planned before the tools come out, communal areas left exactly as found.

There's also plenty of extended family houses and terraces here. Family houses don't send one trade's worth of work at a time: the heating strains, the drains block, the garden grows and the to-do list breeds. Having one local firm across all seven trades means one number solves the week's problems instead of four.

Homes span Victorian terraces, flats and recently refurbished apartments, so we adapt to whatever the property needs. From plumbing, heating and electrics to drainage, gardening, carpentry and external cleaning, one local firm covers the lot in Chelsea — with no call-out fee, card payment on completion and a 12-month guarantee on the workmanship.
