    Seamless measurement and fitting

    Posted 20 April

    John was brilliant and efficient in completing the job. He removed and fitted a reeded glass and completed the job seamlessly. The glass came in even quicker than we thought which meant John could complete the job sooner. Price was was very competitive which was brilliant. I’d highly recommend John for glass

    Pane Relief

    Posted 28 March

    John was fantastic from start to finish. We had an urgent situation with a window needing repair on the day of exchange, and he stepped in at very short notice without any fuss. He arrived exactly when he said he would (on a Sunday) and got everything sorted quickly and efficiently. He stayed calm and professional throughout what was a stressful day. We were really pleased with both the quality of the work and how smoothly it was handled. He really does his trade proud — reliable, skilled, and easy to deal with. Highly recommended.

    Windows issues fixed to the highest standard

    Posted 19 March

    I had several issues with the windows in my house, including misted units, condensation, and loose seals. After reaching out to John, he arrived within a few days to personally inspect all the glazing and provided a very competitive quote. A couple of weeks later, all the issues were resolved to the highest standard. I highly recommend his services.
