Looking for a reliable joiner, electrician, plumber or builder in the Lothians or Edinburgh? R3 Direct brings skilled tradespeople, straightforward booking and trusted home repair services together under one roof.

Every home needs a little attention from time to time. It might be a dripping tap, a faulty light, a door that needs adjusting or a bigger project such as a new kitchen or bathroom. Whatever the job, finding the right tradesperson, arranging appointments and getting everything completed can sometimes feel like a project in itself.

That’s where R3 Direct comes in.

Serving homeowners across East Lothian, Midlothian and Edinburgh, R3 Direct has been providing home repair, maintenance and building services since 1988. With a dedicated team of employed tradespeople covering a wide range of skills, we make it easier to get those jobs sorted, from everyday repairs to larger home improvements.

Unlike many local contractors who offer a single trade, R3 Direct provides homeowners with access to multiple skilled trades through one trusted provider. Whether a project requires plumbing, electrical work, joinery, decorating or roofing, you benefit from one point of contact, coordinated delivery and a team that can manage jobs from start to finish.

Your Local Tradespeople, All in One Place

When you need work done around the house, you want people who know their trade, turn up when expected and take care of your home.

Rather than searching for a different contractor for every job, R3 Direct offers access to a team of experienced tradespeople who can help with a wide variety of property repairs and improvements.

Our services include:

• Joiners: From repairing squeaky floorboards and replacing skirting boards to fitting doors, windows and kitchen units, our joinery team can help with jobs big and small.
• Electricians: Whether you need a light fitting replaced, additional sockets installed, safety alarms fitted or electrical rewiring carried out, our qualified electricians can help.
• Plumbers: From dripping taps and faulty showers to toilet repairs, new fittings and bathroom installations, our plumbing team can tackle a wide range of household jobs.
• Gas engineers: Help with boilers, heating and other gas-related work.
• Painters and decorators: Refresh your home with professional painting and decorating.
• Plasterers: Get walls and ceilings repaired and ready for decorating.
• Roofers: Assistance with roofing repairs and related maintenance work.

For larger projects, including kitchen upgrades, bathroom renovations and extensions, we can also help coordinate the trades required to bring your plans together.

Whether you’re looking for a plumber in East Lothian, an electrician in Edinburgh or a trusted joiner for a home improvement project, R3 Direct offers a convenient starting point.

What Makes R3 Direct Different?

Choosing a tradesperson isn’t just about getting the job done. It’s also about knowing what to expect, feeling comfortable with the people working in your home and having confidence in the service you receive.

Here’s how R3 Direct makes the process simpler.

1. A Skilled, Employed Team

We use our own employed tradespeople rather than relying solely on an external network of contractors. Our team brings practical experience and trade-specific skills to the work they undertake.

From qualified electricians to trained joiners and plumbers, we aim to deliver a professional, courteous service with care taken over every job.

All our repair operatives are Disclosure Scotland checked, helping provide additional reassurance when someone comes to work in your home.

2. Clear Pricing and Free Quotes

Knowing what a repair will cost is an important part of deciding how to proceed.

R3 Direct offers free quotes, with fixed pricing for jobs where applicable, so you can understand the cost before work begins. For larger projects, we can discuss your requirements and arrange a tailored quote.

We want you to have the information you need to make an informed decision, without unnecessary uncertainty.

3. Convenient Booking That Fits Around You

Life is busy enough without spending hours trying to organise home repairs.

With R3 Direct, you can request a quote and book eligible repairs online or contact our team by telephone if you’d prefer to speak to someone.

We aim to arrange appointments at a time that suits you, making it easier to fit essential maintenance and improvements around your everyday commitments.

4. Confidence Beyond Completion

We understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust.

That’s why we place importance on professional workmanship, customer service and the quality of the repairs we undertake. Our repairs come with a 12-month guarantee, giving you added reassurance after the work has been completed.

From the initial booking to the finished job, our focus is on making your experience as straightforward as possible.

More Than Repairs: Support for Your Next Home Improvement

Not every job is an emergency. Sometimes, you simply want to make your home work better for you.

Perhaps you’re planning a kitchen refresh, replacing tired flooring, updating a bathroom or tackling a list of smaller jobs that have been waiting for attention.

Having access to different trades through one provider can make planning these projects more manageable.

A joiner can help with doors, flooring and kitchen units. A plumber can take care of pipework, taps and bathroom fittings. An electrician can install lighting, sockets and other electrical components. A plasterer and decorator can help finish the space.

With R3 Direct, you have a team that can cover many of these requirements, helping you move from individual repairs towards a more complete home improvement project.

Big job or small fix, you don’t have to start your search from scratch every time.

There’s another reason to consider R3 Direct: our free membership scheme.
