Great workmanship
We hired Alex and his team to remove internal chimney breasts in 2 of the first floor bedrooms. From quote to commencement of the work was a quick turnaround and the job was done really well - the rooms were all replastered, new ceiling put in, new flooring in one of the rooms, radiator installation, full repaint and installing new sockets and lights. Work was done to a high standard and the team were reliable, hardworking and really nice and trustworthy people. I was also happy that Alex could really advise me on the work being done and what we needed/didn't need to do. He was very knowlegablVerified reviewerJob location: RM1410 Interior Designer

Media wall
The contractor built a TV unit exactly as I requested, even though the design was quite complex. I specifically asked him not to damage the chimney or touch the ceiling, and he respected those requirements perfectly. The result is amazing. He was professional throughout the entire process, kept everything clean, and offered great ideas along the way. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for quality workmanshipVerified reviewerJob location: IG110 Kitchens
