10 A first class service
Posted 3 days ago
Job location: BA2A 100% first class service. From the beginning John was so personable and listened to what I wanted. He arrived, explained everything and then got on with the work with absolute minimal disruption. I work from home and he was so considerate - no radio or noise the whole time which is so unusual these days. Work carried out to excellent standard and a heartwarming experience having this done by a family business with his daughter and son. Would absolutely recommend and will use again. Thank you John!

John and his daughter did a fantastic job while we were away on holiday. It was great to come home and see the finished rooms, which were done to a very high standard.

I think this father and daughter team is a great combination. John proved to be hard-working and skilled and a pleasure to have around and when some unexpected extra work was needed he pulled in his daughter Beth and they managed it between them which was very impressive. I have no hesitation in recommending them highly.Verified reviewerJob location: SN14- CCatherine N
