Highlights
"Our kitchen extension wall had damp due to a leak in the roof. Alan helped us to identify the problem and then recommended us roofers to fix the initial problem. He was extremely patient with us whilst we dealt with the initial leak and worked with us to find best dates etc. When undertaking the work Allan was timely, courteous, tidy and kept us well informed. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to others."
"Damp in kitchen Alan was great to deal with. He worked quickly and efficiently and explained every stage of the works. Highly recommend"
"Alan made a thorough assessment and explained everything in detail before giving me a quote. He came when he said he would, kept to his word and processed requests promptly. He was a good worker, respecting and protecting my furniture and carpets. He kept me informed each step of the way. I have not decorated yet, but the plastering looks well done. He clearly has a lot of experience in the field. Alan cleared up well after the work, leaving the place in good condition. I would use his services again, should the need arise."
