    Excellent Work – Highly Recommended

    Posted 25 March

    Dave recently returned to our home to remove our old shower and install a new enclosed unit, and the service was excellent from start to finish. He arrived promptly at the agreed time, was courteous and respectful of our home, and took great care to keep everything clean and tidy. The old unit was removed efficiently, and the new shower was installed with great attention to detail. All fittings were finished to a high standard, and Dave made sure everything was working perfectly before he left. He previously installed our main bathroom suite, so he was our first and only call when we needed an

    bathroom refit

    Posted 02 March

    Dave has been an absolute gem from start to finish and has completely transformed our battered old bathroom into a relaxing space to be proud of. He has consistently kept us in the loop from the very beginning and has completed the job to an exceptionally high standard. He has been so lovely to have working in the house and has been so respectful. we were really impressed by how neat and tidy everything was left in the evenings as well! We are so glad we went with Dave and will definitely recommend him to anyone needing work done in the area. Thank you so much for our beautiful bathroom!

    Shower upgrade

    Posted 19 February

    Dave recently upgraded a shower cubicle that was no longer fit for purpose for my elderly Mother. The service he provided was exceptional from initial contact via Checkatrade, home visit, quote and finally the refurbishment work itself. Great communication, on time and fantastic workmanship - the shower looks brand new and we couldn’t be more delighted. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Dave and would 100% use his services again. Thanks Dave

    Bathroom Brilliance (Dave Lipscombe) is brilliant!

    Posted 14 October 2025

    Dave Lipscombe has completed several jobs for me including a shower rom re-fit, a bathroom extension and re-fit, Cloakroom re-fit and the total overhaul of my kitchen, installing new units. He is a master of several trades and during my jobs in addition to removing the old and fitting new bath/kitchenware with associated plumbing tasks he has also completed extensive tiling, floor levelling and LVT installation, plastering and general carpentry. Every job has been completed to the highest standard. I recommend Dave for all kitchen and bathroom work and will use him again without hesitation.

    Bathroom Brilliance are brilliant! Thanks, Dave Lipscombe

    Posted 08 October 2025

    Dave Lipscombe is a jewel. He is multi-skilled in the extreme. He had already completed a shower room re-fit and a bathroom replacement (including extending to make room for a shower by moving a 'stud' wall). I was therefore very happy to wait for him to be able to take on my kitchen job finished this week. During those jobs Dave has not only completed all (non-gas) plumbing and fitted a shower, a four-piece bathroom and a complete kitchen. He has also tiled two rooms, clad another, levelled floors and fitted new LVT flooring and plastered walls and ceilings. All to the highest standard!
