We have undertaken many different projects over the years spanning across many different trades. Here’s what some of our customers had to say about us.
All work completed as requested in one day and in time for family event. A whole circuit was out of action causing great inconvenience in the kitchen and living room. Jak the electrician rectified this in what seemed to me a very skilful and professional way. It was a great relief to have the job done with minimal disruption and in a timely manner .

The men ( I am afraid that I can only remember Steve’s name ) came on time, were unfailingly pleasant, courteous, quiet and respectful, and finished at 3pm ! They were tidy, careful about making a mess and cleaned up and hoovered before leaving. They explained what they were going to do and then, at the end before leaving, carefully showed us what they had managed to do.
They were an absolute credit to your company, and we could not be more pleased with the work your company has undertaken. We will have no hesitation in recommending you to others – in fact we have already discovered that your company has done similar work for friends of ours who also were full of praise for you.
In these difficult times it is so reassuring to find a company like yours, that fulfills its promises and carries out its work to an exceptional standard and whose workforce are reliable, polite, on time and who give real value for money.
We hired foundations up last year to board our loft, then again to fit a new door frame and a front door. On both jobs they were excellent, in particular the front door was a challenge (old house everything uneven) that no one else wanted to take on! Would definitely recommend toRead more “Replacing old Doors and Door Frames in old House”
We had a loft hatch moved, the old hatch blocked in, new hatch in the hallway with a lovely wooden ladder, loft boarded out with 18sqm of boards, loft insulation brought up to standard and some new electrics put in.
We had a visit from Charles, who inspected the loft, explained what the team would do and answered all of my silly questions. The quote was very reasonable and we were booked in 6 weeks later.
The electritcian came a few days early, as they have got COVID bubbles setup for their teams, and was finished in a couple of hours, very clean and tidy.
The carpenters arrived promptly at 8 on the day, straight to work with barely a break, they were finished with the job and had cleaned everything up by 1:30. The work was done to a very high standard and we were really pleased.
All the guys were friendly, knowledagble and efficient. Adherance to COVID rules was very good.
Getting hold of back-office staff was easily done via email and they answered the couple of questions I had with no fuss.
All in a fantastic experience, we will be contacting them again for our next project.
