    Soundproofing and plastering.

    Posted 22 January

    Excellent professional work provided. Matt communicated well whilst we were planning which products to use. He was punctual, courteous in my home and tidied up when he finished each day. I would fully recommend him.

    Tiling of porch and bedroom

    Posted 10 January

    First class levels of communication. Arrived when he said he would to inspect and issued a quote the same day. Completed the job within the same week. I would definitely use again. Competitively priced.

    So pleased with our media wall.

    Posted 04 December 2025

    We showed Matt our vision and he absolutely delivered! Our media wall looks absolutely amazing, he even made us some cupboard doors as it wasn't a standard size. Matt is super friendly, hardworking and you wouldn't know he'd even been here as he is spotless. I would recommend Matt to anyone.

    Posted 16 November 2025

    We recently had a media wall built and couldn’t be happier with the result. From start to finish, the service was outstanding. Matt was incredibly hardworking, meticulous, and clearly takes great pride in his work. Every detail was executed with precision, and the final product looks fantastic. Communication was smooth, Matt arrived on time, and he made sure everything was completed to the highest standard. It’s rare to find someone so dedicated and skilled, truly a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend this company to anyone looking for excellent workmanship and a professional, reliable

    Outstanding service and quality work

    Posted 29 October 2025

    Matt was absolutely brilliant throughout the whole process. Matt skimmed a wall that had a big hole in the corner and he came to my house and assured me the work could be completed with no issues. He then contacted me asking if he could come earlier than planned. Matt explained the whole process to me so that I could understand what was being done and then recommended how to look after the plaster when it was dry. I can honestly the say the work that has been completed is outstanding and family members visiting have said how brilliant it has turned out. The price Matt provided was unbeatable.
