“ES Francis Contractors attended a commercial premises to clear and dispose. They were efficient, thorough and very well priced. Earl communicated clearly and precisely. A very thorough and efficient service. I would highly recommend”
“An excellent company would highly recommend. Earl is efficient, polite, thorough and communicates excellently.”
“From contact to completion Earl was very thorough in terms of detailing the costs of each piece of work. Derek's work was exemplary, as was every other aspect of the work that was needed on both the kitchen and the bathroom in terms of the work itself as well as tidying up afterwards. Earl even accomodated an extra piece of work with respect to a bathroom cabinet. All in all a very positive experience. We would have no hesitation in using Earl again.”
I recently had the pleasure of working with ESF Contractors, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Earl Francis and his team were incredibly accommodating, patient, and thoughtful throughout the process. After having been a victim of a rogue builder, I found myself feeling uncertain about how to complete my house. Earl's no-nonsense approach, combined with his genuine care and understanding of my predicament, made a world of difference. He and his team took the time to understand my situation and provided valuable guidance and support, their professionalism and expertise helped restore my confidence in the project. They were not only responsive to my needs but also proactive in offering solutions that fit my vision and budget. Their expertise and friendly demeanor made a challenging situation much easier to manage. Thanks to their dedication and hard work, my home is now nearing completion, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. If you're looking for a reliable and understanding contractor, ESF Contractors is the way to go. I highly recommend them!" Miss Hamilton
I recently moved to England and needed to alter my apartment. Earl and his team were incredible to work with. His expertise and professionalism were such a joy and an extreme relief to employ. Thank you, Earl, I highly recommend him and his team.
Thank you Larissa, it has been a pleasure working with you to create your beautiful newly refurbished home.
Kitchen Extension The works carried out have been done in a very well thought out way, by E S Francis Contractors and his team. Start to finish they have been very helpful with anything that we needed. Carried out the work to a very high standard. I would recommend them to anyone .
Earl and his team did a full refurbishment of a two bedroom flat in Battersea for us. The flat was built in the 1950s and hadn't been updated since so needed a full rip out and refurbishment including rewiring, insulating the external walls and fitting central heating. Very pleased with the results and lots of guidance from Earl and his team on the way.
Great team, very professional, great communication. No complaints whatsoever.
Boiler and Kitchen fitted. Couldn't have been more pleased with the work carried out. Would 100% recommend their service. They went the extra mile.
Professional and does what he says he will do.
Earl and his team completed a full refurb of a one bedroom flat for us. He was professional, friendly and helpful in his advice and conduct. The work was done to a high standard and he incorporated many extra tasks with an unfailing generosity of spirit. Would recommend him unreservedly.
We had a difficult build with a few complications which added to the overall time of the build but these were well managed by Earl and his team and the end product was excellent. Earls attention to detail on the finishing meant the build and renovations were completed to a high specification.
Earl completed a top to bottom house renovation for me and an extension. If I had to do it all again, I wouldn't work with anyone else. He is professional, knowledgeable, hands-on with his team, and just a good guy to work with. We were super happy with the results - little to no snagging at the end of the job. A great team with a lot of insight! It was a big project!
