    Upsetting experience

    I do not recommend Mawhinney Maintenance. I needed a new sink, new taps & worktops installed in my kitchen. Several problems occurred during the work: Damaged & split worktop during fitting, poorly fitted taps, incorrectly fitted waste p-trap which collapsed and leaked water everywhere but the worst problem of all was Andy removing my gas stove. Only qualified Corgi installers are permitted to work with gas. Andy is not a qualified registered Corgi installer. He removed the gas stove which caused a dangerous gas leak. My house smelt of gas: I was very upset,worried for my family's safety.

    Disappointing Experience

    One new roof. Seven months to complete. Three price rises. Six missed completion dates. One disappointed client. I had to invoke the Consumer Rights Act 2015 to try and get the job finished. Even though I had paid £9,900 of the £12,800, and it was agreed that the remainder would be paid on completion, I was threatened that Andy would not return unless I paid another £1,900 as their staff would not be paid because of me, and he had three children to support. All this has been logged with the consumer council, and they advised writing an honest review at the end of the process.

    Professional and Reliable Builder

    Mawhinney Maintenance and Building carried out work for us this summer (2025), creating an open plan kitchen area with a new kitchen. We were very happy with all aspects of the work carried out - Andy and team did a fantastic job (including organising building control) and I have no hesitation in recommending this company for any type of building or renovation work.

    General Building

    Posted 12 June 2025

    New windowsill fitted, ceiling plastered, floor tiles in bathroom relaid and floorboards fixed

    Andy and his team were excellent, they carried out all the repairs to a very high standard, Andy himself is a very talented builder with great knowledge. I can't thank them enough for the work they carried out. Clean and efficient.
