Garden Clearance
This was one of those jobs that had various problems from the start. Having said that SMS did put them all right without complaint. The quote given for the clearing of the site AND the complete redesign was excellent. The original deadline was missed by a long way primarily due to misjudging the anomalies of the site (eg the underlying concrete was a lot thicker than anticipated). SMS were slow in clearing the site after the work was done - it took almost three weeks before the last of the rubble and debris were moved. Overall, I am pleased with the work done and the final result and would be prepared to use them again.
Garage Conversion
I received a fantastic level of service from this company from the initial phonecall to supplying highly competative quotes for the proposed work. At every stage I have been in contact with the company who have gone out of there way to source materials and suppliers who can provide the required products than will fit in with my very precise requirements. I cannot speak too highly of the service I have received which is sadly all too rare this day and age!
Underpinning / Piling / Foundations
At only a day's notice, two men came to inspect a house in Cambridge which I was interested in buying. I had concerns that there was evidence of movement in the structure of the building (as demonstrated by fine cracks visible in some of the exterior walls) but I was not yet ready to pay £1000 for a full structural survey by a chartered surveyor. The inspection cost me £80 and established beyond doubt that subsidence had been. and was still affecting the property, causing cracks to appear in many locations. I was advised how to proceed to establish the cause of subsidence (camera survey along the drains and soil analysis) but decided to withdraw from purchasing the house.
