9.33 Complete kitchen refurb, downstairs flooring refit and knocking out a porch wall
Posted 5 days ago
I’m very glad I chose R1K Solutions for my kitchen project. Rick is friendly, approachable, and easy to have around. He communicated well throughout, answered questions, and put me at ease. He went the extra mile, taking on additional work and finishing touches with pride. Pricing was fair and flexible, and he handled concerns professionally. Reliable and hardworking, he often stayed late and offered helpful advice. Despite a few minor delays, he was proactive in resolving issues. I’m very happy with the result and would gladly recommend him and hire him again in future.Verified reviewerJob location: RH6 10 Happy Customer

Ricky from R1K was riendly, punctual and communication was easy. He replaced 1 internal door and also replaced a lock on a second door. He did the work in a timely manner and cleaned up once the job was completed. Reasonable priced as well.Verified reviewerJob location: RH19Response from R1K Solutions Ltd

AVOID THIS COMPANY!! DO NOT USE!! Dishonest, disorganised and unprofessional. They failed to follow clear instructions and the tiling was completed incorrectly, which they later admitted. They offered only a £150 reduction and even suggested charging extra to fix their own mistake. They also added an unagreed £30 charge and are now refusing to honour the £150 reduction previously offered. Despite our efforts to resolve things fairly, they have remained inflexible and are now threatening court action. Completely unacceptable from start to finish — AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!Verified reviewerJob location: RH10Response from R1K Solutions Ltd
Hi Tom, we do not accept the inaccuracies in your review. This matter was also raised through Checkatrade and reviewed, but no resolution was reached. The issue raised was the orientation of the tiling, not the quality of the workmanship. The tiling was completed in line with the revised estimate accepted in writing before the works went ahead. We made reasonable offers to resolve the matter, which were not accepted. We pride ourselves on the quality of our work and our relationships with customers, and it is disappointing that matters have reached this point. Laura, R1K Solutions Ltd
