    Door Fitting / Hanging

    Posted 13 July

    Great Service

    We recently had Andrew come to fit some doors for us. He was on time, hard working and cleaned up after himself. We’re very happy with the work.

    Door Hanging and Subsequent Adjustment - made necessary by constant rain

    A very good and conscientious carpenter

    Andrew came to our property and measured up and quoted for panelling frame features in our dining room. He marked up all the lines and positioning of the frames so we could see how it would look using his laser system. We have had the work done and it has transformed the room completely. He is very conscientious and gets on with the work in a very professional way. I would highly recommend Andrew to anybody who was looking at having work done in their property.

    Andrew has been helping us renovate our house for a couple of months and he has done an amazing job! He has really changed the look of the house and his perfectionism has really worked in our favour! There were so many problems with the house and he took each problem in his stride and helped us find the most affordable option. he's a genuine and nice person to be around and we absolutely trusted him in our house for months. We are 100% going to contact him again and would highly recommend.

    Media Wall

    Andrew listened to what we wanted and worked with us to design and build a beautiful media wall. He is thoroughly professional in his approach to work and is meticulous in everything he does. He’s a pleasure to have working in the house and is cheerful, friendly and very neat and tidy. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him based on our experience of his workmanship. Great job!
