Airbrick installation
Found Derek through my checkatrade listing, very quick to respond and rapidly made himself available for my job which is always appreciated. The initial position i wanted the airbrick installed could not be done (through my own stupidity) but we identified an area i was looking to get another added in future and he swiftly installed it there instead. Great fella and highly recommend!

I observed Derek work whilst he was working for a neighbour. Work was excellent so asked for quotes for various jobs. Price was fair and a first class job provided on all tasks. Derek is knowledgeable in his trade, his work is first class. He is prompt ,easy to work with and very tidy. I would happily recommend Derek for any work required
