Great team of trained professionals that have completed my flooring job to a high standard. They removed and disposed of old flooring, levelled the original concrete floor and installed click fit vinyl planks. They focus on the details and work efficiently.
Verified by CheckatradeRipped out and replaced upstairs bathroom
2 years ago we had the downstairs bathroom replaced by ashwood so when we needed the upstairs doing they were our first choice. The bathroom was taken out down to brick and joists, the floor, walls, electrics and water supply all brought up to standard and levelled. They even sorted out a problem with the waste pipes. The the new shower and suite installed to a very high standard. Looks great and works beautifully.
Verified by CheckatradeHerringbone flooring installed perfectly
They fitted our herringbone flooring a few months back. Was done extremely well and in brilliant timing. Thank you for the wonderful work. We will be using your company again in the future
Verified by CheckatradeKitchen renovation
I had a complete overhaul in my kitchen, which included repositioning a door and window. All electrics were updated and the boiler replaced. From arranging the kitchen installation to laying of the floor tiles each task was timetabled and actioned appropriately. I was consulted every step of the way. The team were professional courteous and before leaving each day tidied up any debris. My project went very smoothly and it was all down to this skilled team they are 5 star. I will not use any other builders now.
Verified by CheckatradeRefurbishment of Parquet flooring
The standard of workmanship cannot be faulted and communication with the contractor was smooth and without issue, however the resulting level of 'residue' could have been more clearly communicated. I specifically asked if all rooms would be 'bagged' with doors closed and was assured that was not necessary, however every single inch of my house was left covered in a layer of red wood dust, including all the recently-cleaned carpets. The clean-up was monumental. As I said, the finished result cannot be faulted, but the aftermath was no fun at all.

Laid wood flooring
Mark and his colleague done an amazing job at laying our wood flooring throughout the hallway and lounge. Attention to detail was on point and the finish was fantastic, really pleased. Great trustworthy guys. Highly recommend!
Verified by CheckatradeSand and Polish floor including filling gaps
Amazing work done. Ashwood team was professional and did the job on-time. Would reccommend to use them.
Verified by Checkatrade
Mark contacted us and came to have a look at our room. He was very thorough and said he would provide us with a quote. However after over a week and after calling again no estimate has been received. If he didn’t want the job why waste my time
Verified by CheckatradeSupply and fit laminate flooring
I would highly recommend Ashwood. Mark was very professional, and his advice invaluable. On the day of fitting the guys came at 8am, also very polite and professional. Got straight on with the job. I am so pleased with my new flooring. Well done and thanks ??
Verified by CheckatradeLay tongue and groove board flooring in hallway
Really professional, polite and skilled. Excellent job, perfectly executed. Trustworthy too - unexpectedly I had to leave them in the house with the front door open whilst I was out. It was obvious there would be nothing to worry about and they would take care of our home, such a good person on site. Arranging and associated admin were all very efficient.

4.30pm: We arranged on the 21st July that you would come to my property between 8am and 9am on Friday 13 August that you would give me a quote for work that needs doing. 4.30pm: no appearance at all. I've made multiple phone calls, no answer. I have left voice messages, no response. Two text messages, silence. A FB message, nothing.
Verified by CheckatradeGarage Roof
Garage roof was leaking and Ashwood have put on new roof to high standard. Some initial hurdles with neighbour's garage roof were overcome with minimum of fuss and good liaison with neighbour. The workmen were punctual, polite and left the garage very tidy on completion.
Verified by CheckatradeRepair to ceilings and other plaster work and decoration.
As a result of an upstairs water leak, some of the downstairs ceilings and plaster work needed repairing and also some decorating was required too, I really can't recommend Mark at Ashwood contracts enough, a really nice guy to deal with as are he's tradesmen and the work was completed on time and to a very high standard, also it is worth adding that this work was carried out at my Mums house, who has dementia and invariably tries to throw anyone new out of the house, carers included, but both Mark and he's tradesmen were brilliant with her, which made the whole thing so much easier.
We’ve used Ashwood for flooring work a few times now and they’ve been great each time. High quality, reliable and reasonably priced.
