Property Maintenance Services in Worthing
What we can help with
A reliable, straightforward service for the everyday jobs that need doing around your home.
Every home has a different list. Sometimes it is a handful of small repairs that have built up over time; sometimes it is a room that needs several different jobs to bring it back into shape.
Paladin provides practical help with repairs, property maintenance, decorating, carpentry and home improvements across Worthing and the surrounding area.
From small jobs through to more involved refurbishment work, our aim is to provide one reliable point of contact and get the work properly sorted.

Home Repairs & Property Maintenance
Keeping a home in good condition often means dealing with lots of smaller issues before they become bigger ones.
We can help with general repairs, maintenance tasks and accumulated job lists throughout the home.
This can include:
- Repairing or replacing fixtures and fittings
- Adjusting doors, hinges and latches
- Replacing handles and hardware
- Repairing trim, skirting and timber
- Resealing around kitchens and bathrooms
- Fixing minor defects and damage
- Making good after previous repairs or alterations
- Working through general maintenance and odd-job lists
Home Improvements & Refurbishment
For jobs that go beyond a simple repair, we also take on larger home improvement and refurbishment projects.
These can involve several stages of work, with one point of contact helping to bring the whole job together.
This can include:
- Room refreshes and refurbishments
- Strip-out and preparation work
- Repairing damaged walls, ceilings and woodwork
- Carpentry and finishing work
- Decorating and final finishes
- Plumbing alterations and repairs
- Making good after electrical or plumbing work
- Coordinating electricians, plasterers and other specialist trades
- Combining several smaller improvements into one organised project
Home Adaptations & Accessibility Improvements
Small changes around the home can make a significant difference to comfort, safety and independence.
We can help adapt existing homes as needs change, with practical improvements designed around the person and the property.
This can include:
- Fitting handrails and grab rails
- Additional stair rails
- External handrails
- Simple access ramps
- Improving steps and thresholds
- Repositioning everyday fittings
- Making storage easier to reach
- Adjusting doors and access points
- Practical alterations to improve movement around the home
- Working alongside specialist assessors where more complex adaptations are required
Carpentry & Bespoke Storage
We undertake a range of carpentry, joinery and fitted storage work, from straightforward repairs through to made-to-measure solutions.
This is particularly useful where standard furniture does not make the best use of the space.
This can include:
- Alcove cupboards
- Fitted shelving
- Bookcases
- Built-in wardrobes
- Built-in desks
- Storage units
- Media walls
- Window seats
- Boxing-in utilities, pipework etc.
- Skirting boards and architraves
- Door repairs and adjustments
- Timber repairs
- Bespoke storage for awkward spaces
- Carpentry incorporated into larger refurbishment projects
Painting & Decorating
Good decorating is mostly about good preparation, particularly in older homes with years of previous paint, repairs and movement.
We offer Painting & Decorating in Worthing and the surrounding areas.
We can handle the preparation, repairs and finishing needed to leave a room looking properly refreshed rather than simply repainted.
This can include:
- Painting walls and ceilings
- Preparing and filling damaged surfaces
- Sanding and making good
- Repairing minor cracks and defects
- Painting doors, skirting and architraves
- Refreshing tired rooms
- Decorating after plastering or repair work
- Woodwork preparation and finishing
- Feature walls and colour changes
- Decorating as part of a wider room refurbishment
Plumbing & Bathroom Repairs
We undertake a range of everyday domestic plumbing and bathroom repair work, alongside the general maintenance and finishing jobs that often go with it.
This can include replacing taps, wastes and traps, repairing leaks, replacing toilets and toilet mechanisms, resealing baths and showers, fitting bathroom fixtures and accessories, resolving minor drainage problems and carrying out associated repairs and making good.
We can also combine plumbing work with carpentry, decorating and other improvements as part of a wider bathroom refresh. Where a job involves specialist heating, gas work or work outside our scope, we can arrange or recommend the appropriate qualified trade.
Kitchen Repairs & Improvements
Not every kitchen problem requires a full kitchen replacement. We can help with smaller repairs and improvements that extend the life of an existing kitchen or improve how it works day to day.
This may include cupboard and drawer repairs, hinge adjustments, replacement handles, shelving, minor worktop repairs, resealing, fitting accessories, making good and small carpentry jobs around the kitchen.
Larger kitchen refurbishment work can also be considered where the project involves a combination of repairs, decorating, carpentry and coordination with specialist trades.
Doors, Skirting & Interior Woodwork
Doors and interior woodwork often need adjustment or repair as properties move and age. We can help with sticking doors, loose hinges, handles and latches, damaged trim, skirting boards, architraves and other interior timber details.
We can also replace or upgrade selected pieces of woodwork where repair is no longer worthwhile, including work carried out as part of redecorating or refurbishment projects.
Exterior Repairs & Timber Maintenance
We undertake selected exterior maintenance and repair work where it falls within safe, practical property-maintenance scope.
This may include repairs to timber features, decking, gates, fences, garden structures, sheds, exterior trim and other external jobs, together with preparation and protective finishes where appropriate.
Furniture Assembly & Fitting
We can assemble and install a wide range of flat-pack and ready-made furniture, including wardrobes, shelving units, cabinets, desks and storage systems.
Where the job requires more than simple assembly, we can also make minor adjustments, secure furniture safely, fit it neatly into the space and make small modifications where appropriate.
We can also work with you to modify off the shelf furniture products, such as IKEA Pax cupboards and units, to make semi-bespoke solutions, balancing economics and functionality.
Ventilation & Draught Improvements
Some homes benefit from relatively simple improvements to ventilation, draught control and general comfort.
Depending on the property and the nature of the work, this can include fitting or replacing suitable vents and grilles, minor draught-proofing measures, improving airflow around existing installations and making good around ventilation work.
Where mechanical ventilation, electrical work or specialist damp investigation is required, the appropriate specialist can be involved.
Stairs, Hallways & Interior Features
Older houses often accumulate years of paint, movement and repairs around staircases, hallways and interior trim. We can help repair, prepare and improve these areas while retaining the character of the property where possible.
Work may include filling and repairing damaged surfaces, addressing chipped or uneven paint layers, repairing timber trim, preparing stairs and stringers for repainting, replacing or repairing skirting and architraves and carrying out associated decorating.
Shelving, Storage & Wall Fittings
From a single shelf to a complete storage solution, we can help with securely fitting items to walls and making better use of awkward spaces.
Typical work includes shelving, curtain poles, blinds, mirrors, pictures, rails, brackets, TV brackets, coat hooks, wall-mounted storage and other household fittings.
Where appropriate, we can also build custom shelving or storage rather than simply fitting a ready-made product.
Making Good After Other Trades
Electrical, plumbing and plastering work often leaves small areas that still need finishing before a room feels complete. We can carry out the making-good work around these jobs, including filling, patching, carpentry repairs, trim replacement and decorating.
This is particularly useful on refurbishment projects where several trades are involved and somebody needs to take responsibility for the final details.
Loft & Storage Improvements
We can help improve usable storage space in lofts and other awkward areas where the work falls within general carpentry and home-improvement scope.
This may include boarding suitable areas, shelving, simple storage platforms, access improvements and other practical storage solutions. Any work affecting structure, insulation, electrical installations or building regulations would be discussed separately and brought within the appropriate specialist scope.
Garden Structures & Outdoor Repairs
Outdoor spaces often need the same sort of ongoing maintenance as the inside of a house. We can help with repairs and improvements to garden structures, timberwork and practical outdoor features.
Typical work may include fence and gate repairs, sheds, planters, timber screens, shelving and storage, small structures and selected exterior carpentry.
Small Jobs & General Handyman Work
Smaller jobs are still welcome. If you have several odd jobs that have accumulated, it is often more efficient to work through them together rather than arranging a separate tradesperson for each one.
This might include hanging pictures and mirrors, fitting shelves and curtain poles, changing handles, repairing loose fittings, adjusting doors, fitting blinds, assembling furniture, resealing areas or dealing with a general list of household repairs.
Larger Multi-trade Projects
Some projects sit between ordinary handyman work and a full building contract. A room or larger area may need several different trades, stages and decisions before it is finished properly.
For suitable projects, we can take responsibility for the work within our scope and help coordinate the wider job, giving you one main point of contact and helping keep the different stages moving in the right order.
This can include:
- Planning the sequence of works
- Coordinating electricians, plasterers, plumbers and other specialist trades
- Organising access and timing between trades
- Keeping an eye on progress across the project
- Identifying issues before they hold up later stages
- Managing the handover between different trades
- Carrying out carpentry, repairs, decorating and finishing work ourselves
- Making good after specialist work
- Helping source practical solutions as the project develops
- Keeping the homeowner updated throughout
- Bringing together multiple smaller jobs into one organised project
- Acting as a consistent point of contact from start to finish
If you are planning a larger refurbishment or home-improvement project and would prefer someone practical to help coordinate the process, get in touch to discuss the scope.

Not Sure What Trade You Need?

Send us a short description of what needs doing, together with a few photographs if possible, and we can usually advise whether it is something we can handle directly, whether it suits a larger refurbishment project, or whether a specialist trade would be more appropriate.
