    Bathroom Refresh (shower/sink/light & fan)

    Posted 10 August

    Chris was one of the few suppliers who turned up and provided a timely quote. He was really helpful with the planning to ensure everything I ordered was the coreect type and fit. His work was top quality and he was very friendly and respectful of my home. I would recommend him and use him again .

    Shower refit

    Posted 03 July

    Chris removed our old shower cubicle, shower tray and tiles. There was some water damage behind the tiling and under the tray which he made good. He then installed a new shower cubicle and retiled. We were very happy with Chris's workmanship, especially the beautiful neat tiling. He completed the work to the timescale as planned and was pleasant and tidy. We would no hesitation in recommending him to others and look forward to employing again for future jobs.

    Chris has just put in a beautiful bathroom for us. We really valued his advice, flexibility and workmanship. As well as doing a fantastic job on time and to budget he is a pleasure to work with. This is the 3rd bathroom he has fitted for us and we’re really happy with every project he’s completed for us so far.
