“My bath would leak water onto the floor underneath when you tried to drain it which was extremely irritating. David turned up, identified the issue and immediately got to work fixing said issue. He took the time to explain the root cause of the issue which I thought was great in terms of transparency. Further to this he also resealed some shoddy looking patches in other parts of my bathroom. Very personable guy, very professional, would recommend highly.”
