We are the data controller responsible for any personal data you provide through this website or directly to us. You can reach us at gaclee1@gmail.com or on 07472 606611.
2. What data we collect
We collect information you give us directly — typically your name, telephone number, email address, property postcode and any details you share about the work you'd like quoted. We also collect basic technical data (IP address, browser type, pages visited) for analytics and security.
3. How we use your data
- To respond to quote requests and arrange visits.
- To provide the services you've booked and follow up afterwards.

4. Legal basis
We process your data on the basis of: (a) your consent (when you submit an enquiry form); (b) performance of a contract (when we carry out work for you); and (c) legitimate interests (improving our service, preventing fraud).
5. Sharing your data
We do not sell your data. We share it only with trusted providers who help us run the business — for example email and CRM tools, accounting software and payment processors — and only to the extent strictly required. All providers are UK or EU-based or covered by appropriate safeguards.
6. How long we keep it
Enquiry data: up to 24 months after last contact. Customer records (invoices, photos): up to 7 years to meet HMRC requirements. Marketing preferences: until you withdraw consent.
7. Your rights
Under UK GDPR you can request access to your data, correct it, delete it, object to processing or ask us to restrict it. Email gaclee1@gmail.com and we'll respond within 30 days. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
