Jamie and his team came back to us promptly with a reasonable quote which was detailed and laid out clearly. He knew all our plant and tree varieties and gave us some very good advice - We have booked him again to come and prune some more trees and he is giving us some additional advice about a veggie patch. The team are very polite and easy to have around. I have recommended them to a friend.

Although I didn't have the job done in the end (as the council had sorted the pipes whilst I applied for help) I just wanted to say that I did get a very quick reply, from Tom and he had been willing to come the very next day and give me a quote. Even though I explained it was a small job and as I'm disabled he'd have to do all the measuring up. He was still willing to come and at a time to suit me, so he deserves a few stars for helpfulness. Also for putting up with me canceling the job on the day after having second thoughts. I was not aware he'd had to pay rated people for my details. Which I think should be that they only pay if they get work! So thank you for your efforts. I obviously can't really comment on the quality of their work or their value but I give full marks for reliability for the quick call and offer to come the next morning to see the job. I will certainly be keeping their number for any work I need in the future.

Mark finished our en suite in just over a week. His work was of such a high standard, he was on time every day and nothing was too much trouble. he also has a great team of electricians / plasterers that work with him. Mark is friendly, respectful has a great sense of humour and he is also very trustworthy. For any women who live on their own and want a reliable plumber who won't pull the wool over their eyes I would definately recommend Mark. Hopefully mark will be coming back in the new year to fit a bathroom. I would not trust anyone else now! A great find.

Peter's initial visit and inspection was the basis of the quote, which was very competitive. Once work was underway, Peter paid very close attention to detail, fixing some pre-exisiting problems, and always keeping me advised of progress, checking if there was anything he was unsure of. I can't recommend Peter highly enough.
