Testimonials
I hope you don’t mind me reaching out to you. My husband and I just wanted to share some positive feedback for Dean our technician. We were super happy with his services and felt he went above and beyond, had great customer service and did the job really well and was really patient with all…
I would like to say that you have – you, Vince and Dean, all the office people – made this potentially rather chaotic and difficult process as easy and efficient as possible. This has made an enormous difference to us, and we are aware how fortunate we have been. Thank you.
Vince, Matt and Tony – were the best workmen we have ever used – and we’ve used many in several old houses over the past half century; amazingly careful, tidy, efficient and we were never made to feel that our home was “the site”.
We would like to say the following concerning Jamie and Sean who carried out the work. They did an excellent job and when finished left the area in a clean and tidy state. Both were cheerful and courteous and it was a pleasure to have them in our home.

“I’d like to say how nice the ‘boys’ were who did the job, always cheerful, despite finding problems (which builders always do). A great, cheerful team – tidying up every evening, leaving no mess (& even changing over the loo roll when it ran out!) – a team to keep hold of. Thank you so much.”
