We had a bathroom ripped out and refitted as a walk in shower room. The service right from the first phone call was spot on. estimate came in pleasantly below other quotes.
Works were done on time, the three chaps were polite and pleasant and got on with everything, all works tested, everything cleaned and tidied before they left.
In these difficult times We felt totally comfortable with the lads in our home :-)

From the very first enquiry call I made to the office i was made to feel valued. Everything they informed that would happen did happen within the timescale stated, all the paperwork was easy to understand. We received a call to inform us when the work was going to be carried. The fitter arrived on the day ahead of the schedule, was very polite and professional and engaged with Mum to ensure he got the right heights for the rails to suit her. Carried out a professional job and left everything tidy, excellent service, thank you (Reviewed June 2021)

Having spoken to the client he is now happy with the work completed and we have sincerely apologised for any inconvenience caused. (Reviewed November 2018)

The porch canopy is fine. The shed roof is as wet as it was before the men re-felted it. At least one part is as wet as my damp-metre will show. I leave the door open every daytime to encourage the roof to dry, but it won't!
The company replied: Ive been out to see this client this morning.
We replaced the felt on the shed roof at the end of October. The roof appears to be sound but we think the issue is that there is still damp in the beams form where the old roof had leaked.
The client is ventilating the shed and has drawn lines around the damp which does show signs of having receded and suggest we review the situation in 3 - 4 months and see if the problem has resolved.

1st painter didn't put any sheet on the patio floor. My wife can't get the spillage up.
The company have responded:The work was carried out over two windy days and while the technicians did put down sheeting and clear up afterwards it is possible that a little paint may have escaped undetected. The clients were asked if they were happy on both days and no issues were raised with the worker or the office.
We are sorry that the client feels that the job was poorly done, if they had contacted us at the time we could have gone out again to put anything right. We hope they will contact us again for future work and give us a chance to restore their faith in us.

Office:had to keep chasing for date for work to be done. Poor communication when had requested a call back or email update.
Work: hedge cut and trimmed to required height but very many cut branches and trimmings left behind in hedge so spent several hous removing and filling brown bin afterwards.
Traders comments: we are sorry our customer was not satisfied with the service they received. Unfortunately our equipment was being serviced which caused the delay and we accept communication could have been better. When the technicians had left they thought they had cleared all the garden waste. Had we known there was a problem the technicians would have returned to the property (Reviewed July 2015)
Called, said he would see what they had at base. I waited all day but no-one got back to me. Eventually I called office & was told I needed to order one. Was left almost a week without door bell & I live upstairs.
Business response:
We are sorry that the client was dissatisfied. In hindsight it seems that the information given could have been clearer. We will use this case to improve our service.

A bit annoyed at stones, rocks being put round my garden and not taken away. Path grass had a lot of small stones in it so could not cut grass with mower. Hopefully will sink in ground in time for next cut.
Business response:
We are sorry that the client was unhappy with the stones left in the garden after the work was done. This was not intentional and we regret that the client was left not completely satisfied with the work. We feel this was probably due to a breakdown in communication between the client and technician. (Reviewed June 2015)
