    Damp Proofer

    Posted 15 May

    Great company! Highly recommend

    Jon and Mike were both very helpful and knowledgeable regarding our damp issue. They both communicated very well and always gave us information even leading up to starting the job. We chose this company over a few other options based on how professional and honest they were, even advising us that something another company told us needed doing wasn't actually an issue that would solve our problem. Also compared to most other quotes this was very reasonable. The finished job is very high quality and they left my home clean and tidy everyday and respected my home.

    Damp Proofer

    Damp proofing of cottage walls, bricking up if old door & laying new flooring

    The work carried out by M&J was over an above what we expected. They did a superb job and kept us well informed of progress they made. The scope of work turned our to be a little more than expected but that wasn't a problem for them and was finished to our complete satisfaction. The whole job was well priced. We would have no hesitation in recommending M&J

    Damp Investigation

    Posted 22 November 2024

    Damp inspection and then work completed

    Mike came out promptly to visit our home and assess our damp issue. He was friendly, polite and very helpful when it came to explaining what our problem was. He was clear with what they would do and what was needed. Shortly after his visit he sent over a quote which was very competative. We booked a date the following week for the work to be carried out where he and his son John came right on time to undertake our repairs. The work was a lot less intrusive than we expected, it was carried out quickly and cleanly. All mess was cleaned up upon completion. Lovely people. Highly recommended!
