10 Garden Decking
Posted 6 days ago
Michael has recently built us new garden decking. He is friendly and reliable. He arrived when he said he would both to quote the job, and to carry out the work. His work is of a very high standard, and his communication through the job was spot on. We will definitely use him again.Verified reviewerJob location: TW1810 Repairing doors

Job location: TW20Michael got in touch very quickly and was polite, punctual and professional throughout. Michael did an excellent job repairing several doors, and took the time to explain the works in detail before and after completion, and tidied up afterwards. I would not hesitate to use Michael again for any future work. Happy customer. Highly recommend!10 Removing faux chimney feature

We have used Michael's services twice now and have been extremely pleased both times. He appears to be able to do anything - from fixing a new toilet seat to completely relaying our decking. He is always very polite, friendly, professional and at the end of the day leaves his workspace tidy and clean. At his first visit, we gave him a long list of jobs which had defeated our own limited DIY skills and he very calmly worked through them, leaving us in awe!! It is a pleasure having him working in our home and I have already recommended him to several friends.Verified reviewerJob location: TW18
