    Fixing a very dodgy flight of stairs and making safe bannister rail

    Doug is brilliant, knows his stuff, is very conscientious and is very clear when talking through what he’s doing and why. What I believed to creaky stairs was in-fact a much bigger job. Excellent service and very clean and tidy during and after.

    hung interior door

    Fit us in last minute, very reasonable price and the finish of the work is great. Our door frame was not all square, and Doug took the time to get it right. Thank you :)

    Never again

    This was my first time using Checkatrade He parked on my drive without permission. So when I came back, I was unable to park on my own drive He cut the wood on my drive and left most of the sawdust behind He probably did a couple hours work repairing two doors and taking a strip of wood off a third door and painting the bit that he had exposed which would be one line of wood maybe two brush strokes To me, this would be around 200 quid, and he charged me 455 He was supposed to come back to me regarding replacing my front door for me and I never heard from him again.
