Richard is exceptionally knowledgeable, providing invaluable consultancy before he started the job as to what was possible and the expected finish. He kept us informed at all time of the progress of the work he was carrying out. Coming home from work each evening, it was exciting to see how the room was coming together. He tidied up after himself every evening so as not to impact the rest of our house and completed the work to a very high standard on budget.
