  • Bathroom refit

    10Verified Review

    Chris was reliable and communicated well throughout the job, so we knew when he would be around and what stage the project was at. We found him trustworthy and reliable and would highly recommend. We are really pleased with our new bathroom and would happily use Chris again for other work. Thanks, Mike and Ross.

    I have used Chris many times and this time he kindly fitted in a bathroom job in for me before Christmas so tenants had a bathroom ready for Christmas. Excellent job and fair price

  • Bathroom fitting and kitchen redesign

    10Verified Review

    Chris redecorated my bathroom and kitchen in Oct/Nov 2023. He was sharply priced, friendly and detailed in his quote, so I decided to hire him. His craftsmanship was exquisite. He puts a lot of detail in his work, but at the same time works at amazing speed. I had the entire bathroom retiled, a new whirlpool bath, basin, radiator and toilet put in, and even did the ceiling and installed a new fan. He completed all this work in around 2 weeks and everything looked and works amazing. I then hired him to also redo my kitchen. He is extremely kind and helpful and I would hire him again.

  • Bathroom refurbishment

    10Verified Review

    Chris made a beautiful bathroom for me. He went about the work in a very calm, efficient way, was flexible when I wanted things changed and helpful with checking over items before I ordered them. He communicated clearly with me about any changes to his plans and cleared up at the end of each day. He finished the job around the time he had predicted and came in on budget. A really stress-free experience for me and I would definitely use him again.
