Plumber was unable to remove bath facia to fit new taps, he did manage to solve the problem by fitting part of a new set of taps. The facia was damaged, it has been removed and is being repainted.

Stevens work was * * * * * +, he was the only person to contact us to give us a quote and we were not disappointed. The quote was very reasonable. The work was carried out very skilfully and professionally. He also tidied as he completed each piece of the job. We would have no hesitation in asking him to quote for other decorating jobs in the future. We have already recommended him to several other people and will continue to do so in the future. Well done Steven a job very well done.

Although the work done was to a good standard, not all of the work was done and a part of the job(repair to ceiling) was so bad that I had to have it redone by another company. I agreed with Johnathan at the time that he would return at a later date to fix a problem that he could not find the source of at the time. despite repeated attempts to get hold of him I have not been able to get him back to complete the job or refund the money from the part of the job that had to be redone. Poor show Johnathan.

Geoff turned up on time, well presented van, well prepared, and got on with the tasks quickly. The work was varied, and he tackled all intelligently and diligently, completing more than I had hoped in the one day. Since then he has been back for two more days, and although I haven't been on site to check, again seems to have completed more than I had hoped. In short: Reliable, fairly priced, well prepared and able to tackle a wide range of tasks efficiently and appropriately.
