Ken kept me informed all the time, explained very well and took away the old tv (power source) had gone. So purchased a new one, which he remounted on the wall for me. Ken is a very nice man. Will use him again, also I will recommend him to friends and family. Thanks Ken.

He kept me informed what the problem was, what was needed to fix it and I was delighted when he fitted the part and the bill came to less than originally quoted. Very pleased with the work and he was helpful about how to avoid it going wrong again.

In a word - excellent. Kept me up to date with is arrival time. I have to say that from our initial telephone call he had an idea of what the problem was and when he arrived, he was brilliant. He showed us all the parts that need to be removed and any long term plans that we had to make. Advised us of parts that could wait and parts that needed immediate change. Very impressed. Would recommend him to anyone.

Dishwasher was investigated fully, and he didn't mind admitting it wasn't straight forward. He gave an opinion that repairs might be uneconomical, rather than racking up an unnecessary bill for repairs that would prove fruitless.

Ken discussed by phone the problems I had with the washing machine and diagnosed the potential extent of the repair. He quoted prices for all the likely parts required and was honest enough to say it wasn't worth repairing given the cost of the parts, the machines age and the price of a new one. I'm impressed, as not everyone would be this frank since it leaves them without a job to charge for. Good 'old fashioned' integrity, putting the customer first. Would recommend.

I was impressed that the part I needed for my dryer was very resonably priced and that was affordable for the repairs to be carried out, I was given a quote and it was very competitive to others, in fact cheaper and he repaired it so quickly. He cleared up the mess that was made and even advised me on how to look after it in future. I certainly will recommend this company. If I need any appliance fixed in future, I won't hesitate to contact Mr Barnes again, as feel I could trust him to repair it and not over charge me.
