Richard responded promptly to the request, gave good advice and attended the same day. Great service thankyouVerified reviewerJob location: SO319.67 Towel rail timer
Posted 08 June
The towel rail timer required replacement and relocation as it was in an awkward location in a cupboard. I thought this would require extending the wiring, but Richard suggested a much better alternative at little extra cost and the work was carried out within the original time frame. Polite, helpful and professional service given and we are very pleased with the work carried out.Verified reviewerJob location: SO3110 New socket installation
