    Julian did a good job!

    Posted 09 October

    We wanted to install mains powered cameras to an external wall. The problem was we did not want to hardwire the cameras and replaster walls. Julian came up with a solution and we were very happy with the work. Julian and his son turned up early and they cleared up afterwards. He did a good job and we would use his services again.

Worked quickly and efficiently. 2 man team. Friendly, very good communication. I will absolutely use them again. Highly recommended!
