Highlights
"We recently contacted Max regarding a damp issue in our garage. He was very quick to respond and, after inspection, came up with some different options and pricing. His advice was clear and explained each process well. The option we took involved having to work on our neighbours property and Max was also very helpful in negotiating access. The work itself was carried out quickly and professionally. I really can’t recommend Max enough - he was a pleasure to work with."
"Max was great from his instant diagnosis without fuss and over complicated explanation. Rising damp inside caused by a small section of concrete drive being too high . Max created a channel with shingle but also repaired the part of the DPC too. Work done quickly and a fair price charged unlike some of the larger companies who would probably charge more just for the “report”. Highly recommend"
"Excellent. Max got to the root of the problem, gave a comprehensive quote, a decent price, a guarantee for the repairs and did excellent work. He was considerate, hardworking and a joy to work with. Thank you."
