“Service was fantastic. Will definitely use for future jobs. Friendly, punctual, tidy. Went above and beyond to get my washer installed despite a few challenges from an old house. Even cleaned floor under old washing machine before installing new one and bagged up all the packaging from new machine. Couldn't be happier”
