    Highly Recommend Chris

    Posted 02 November

    Chris has done various work for us over the last year and all of it has been done professionally. His prices are very fair. He cleans up along the way. He is a very pleasant individual who is eager to please. He just removed an old shower cubicle and base and replaced with a larger one. we are very happy with his work and would highly recommend him.

    Professional and hard working.

    Posted 26 October

    Chris and his team are excellent - they are serious about doing a good job but also friendly and left the place clean and tidy after the work was done. I would have no hesitation in recommending Stakeout to anyone wanting a professional outcome with attention to detail. I was very happy with all the work they carried out.

    Kitchen Upgrade

    Posted 14 October

    Having used Chris on many previous occasions, we had him back to do a kitchen upgrade. This involved wall tiling, and installing new cabinets. We didn't want shop bought wall cabinets, so asked him to make some out of plywood (open shelving - no doors) so we could then paint them. Also bespoke doors for the lower cabinets. All completed to a high standard. Chris is great at listening to requirements and keeping the customer informed. He is good at suggesting new approaches/solutions and really takes pride in his work. We know we can always rely on him.

    Boxing in a bathroom toilet

    Posted 08 April

    Chris did an excellent job in building a frame to use our large tiles to box in our bathroom toilet which was quite fiddly. He was very respectful to our property and very polite. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him on both counts

    Levelling floor and laying flooring in kitchen

    Posted 16 January

    We’ve moved a lot in recent years. Chris has always been our go-to guy for each new property. The kitchen floor in our first floor flat needed levelling. A fiddly job that involved shaving the joists and re-laying the original boards so they didn’t lift and creak. Having done that, he laid mdf board, thick rubber underlay, and finally, click vinyl planks. The floor now feels really solid and it’s quiet for our neighbours downstairs. The difference before and after is amazing.
