I was so pleased with the new cloakroom that Mike installed for me last year, that this year I asked him to completely re-do the bathroom. The workmanship is superb and I am delighted with the result. Mike always arrived promptly and cleaned and cleared up after each session. Any problems were dealt with quickly and efficiently and also Mike found where improvements could be made to the existing system. Nothing was too much trouble. I thoroughly recommend Mike the Home Doctor and he will always be my first port of call for home improvements. (Reviewed July 2023)
Mike was able to deliver fabulous design work and fitting for our bathroom, with the most amazing shower, w.c., basin, floor, tiles. So much so we asked him to complete and design a rather small second cloakroom. He's made it look bigger, streamlined and modern. We're sincerely ecstatic with the quality of work and finish. Would most highly recommend Mike. (Reviewed May 2023)
Mike is very professional. His work is very thorough and he gives great attention to detail. He is a tidy worker and I am absolutely delighted with the work he has done for me and I would have no hesitation in recommending Mike. Will use Mike again if the need arises. Thank you. (Reviewed January 2023)
We had to wait for Mike and were glad that we did. He came to look at the job, advised us and indicated when he'd be able to do it. The old shower tray had cracked because it wasn't raised properly. Mike built a very solid supporting platform for the new tray, ensuring it was perfectly level before fitting the enclosure. Mike is a very clean and tidy worker, completing everything to plan. We're delighted by the result. (Reviewed October 2022)
Excellent service again, second need to call on Mike's services. Fitted a replacement cartridge in a shower and resolved integrated fridge freezer door problems. Next day service couldn't be faulted.
Highly recommended. (Reviewed August 2022)
Following new central heating installation I gained space in an airing cupboard but the bottom shelf had warped and needed replacing. I also wanted an additional shelf to maximise storage. Mike came and assessed the task - there was also a small amount of plastering work required inside the cupboard. I am extremely pleased with the work Mike has done and now have much needed extra cupboard space. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mike. (Reviewed July 2022)
We called Mike on Thursday morning when we discovered a leak in our water pipes, he called back that evening and arranged to come the following day (which he did) and found the problem and sorted it out for us promptly and professionally. We are very pleased with the standard of work provided

Excellent service throughout. Mike arrived when he said he would and corresponded promptly by email, as and when required. I am delighted with the work done in the cloakroom.

We first used the Home Doctor services (after seeing an advert in the local news letter) to replace two toilet cisterns and our shower pump. We were satisfied with the services supplied and quality of the work done. We subsequently had our bathroom re-modelled (removal of bath and replacement with a low level shower tray, replacement shower, tiling etc.) The work was carried out to a high standard and we are very satisfied with the end result. Based upon the work carried out for us to date, we have no hesitation in recommending the Home Dr for similar work, we shall not be looking for anybody else should we require more work (within the Home Doctor's scope) done on our property in the future.

About the only trader that does things properly at a fair cost. My front door was warped wood with nothing right going right about it. Draught was terrible. Everyone said I wanted a new wooden door fitted for around £3,000, but he prepared my old door to look like new and everything on it worked properly at a vast saving of money. This trader is exceptional for his quality of workmanship. (Reviewed April 2017)
