Homes and common jobs in Solihull

Solihull is a large town and borough on the south-eastern side of Birmingham. The housing is varied: Victorian and Edwardian houses near the centre and station, a large number of interwar and 1930s semis, and many detached homes built in the 1960s and 1970s with bigger gardens and garages. Olton, Shirley, Knowle and Dorridge each add their own mix.

This gives a wide spread of jobs. Owners of larger family houses often want extensions, loft conversions and new kitchens. Those in older houses look at roofs, wiring and heating, and owners of 1960s and 1970s detached houses often replace windows, update bathrooms and landscape the garden.

These are some of the jobs people post in this part of Birmingham:

Extensions and conversions: garage conversions, double-storey extensions and loft rooms are common.
Kitchen and bathroom refits: updating 1960s and 1970s fittings with modern layouts.
Windows, doors and conservatories: replacing older units and improving insulation.
Roofing and chimney work: pitched roofs on detached homes need regular maintenance.
Heating and boiler replacement: larger houses may need more powerful systems.
Landscaping and driveways: bigger gardens often get new patios, fencing and parking areas.

Planning your job in Solihull

Most Solihull homes have a drive or garage, which makes it easier for tradespeople to park, but older roads near the centre can be tight. For larger projects, say whether you have plans and whether you would like one builder to manage everything or separate trades. If your house is in a conservation area or has a tree preservation order, mention it, because it can affect extensions and garden work.
