“Jon and Paul laid bamboo flooring (supplied by us) throughout most of our ground floor and installed 3 new doorways and doors. They started the work earlier than scheduled (by agreement), which was great. They were as respectful of our space as such a big job would allow, and completed it quickly. They moved furniture where it was in the way, kept us up-to-date with everything that was happening, asked questions to ensure we got exactly what we wanted and did an absolutely marvellous job. Our home has been transformed, and we'll certainly use them again in the future - I already have plans!”
