10 Excellent work - good team of workers from Authorn Limited

Job location: PO15Ken and his team re-surfaced the rather uneven and potholed parts of the roadway in front of nos 1 tol 3 with semi-porous tarmac. It's an unadopted road, with each householder responsible for the roadway in front of their house. One could not find a better company and team of people to do the job - completed quickly and efficiently , with no fuss and no hassle. They just got on with it, starting the project early, with the road ready for use soon after lunch. We can thoroughly recommend Ken, Authorn Limited and his team. 10 Great all round experience

Job location: SO24Ken and his team recently laid around 60 square metres of tarmac at the entrance to our drive and we couldn’t be happier with the result. They were friendly, very prompt and reliable from start to finish, and the work was completed to a high standard with an excellent finish. Decent value for money and a very professional service throughout. Highly recommended.10 A great experience!
