Hang 5 internal doors
James and his apprentice arrived promptly and carried out the work efficiently and to a high standard. They were friendly and helpful, keeping us informed of progress. Afterwards they thoroughly cleaned everything up leaving no sign they’d been there apart from the new doors. Would use again without any hesitation. Highly recommended.Verified reviewerJob location: RM12RPhillip W10 Door Fitting / Hanging
