  • Supply and install a handrail to the steps up to the front door of our house.

    10Verified Review

    The response to my request to checkatrade was immediate. Two quotes by return. A visit by the Village Blacksmith and an on the spot discussion and subsequent quote was accepted. The job was done two working days later; extremely neatly, tidily and left operationally in the mid afternoon fully decorated. I am sure our numerously physically challenged visitors will be as grateful as we are for the newly installed hand rail. We thoroughly recommend with out reservation.

    Ian did a very good job of creating a handrail down garden steps and reducing the steepness. So good we've asked him to quote on another job!

  • Railing for outside garden steps

    10Verified Review

    We’re extremely pleased with our new railings. Ian was very quick to respond to our request on Checkatrade and came out to view the job the same week (just before Christmas). We discussed the best design and Ian took into consideration the style of our house and came up with a sympathetic design which also ensured our steps were safe. Ian prepared well for the job and made a bespoke repair of railings for our steps managing to bend the rails to match the curve. He finished off with a coat of primer and top coat. We’re delighted with the results.
