    Received a call from Simon (Solent Telecom) following my request for a quote via Checkatrade. After giving a description of job required, Simon gave a quote and an appointment date and time convenient to me. Simon arrived on time and carried out teh job as per quotation received. Clearly Simon has years of experience and was thorough in his testing pre and post completion of the job. Courteous and tidy, and I would have no hesitation recommending Solent Telecoms.
