Highlights

We just had fitted wardrobes installed in the main bedroom. The service provided was excellent in terms of quality and value for money. Time schedules were met and Chris was a joy to have around. Our house is an older house and as such walls and floors are a bit "everywhere" but Chris managed to get the wardrobes to fit like a glove! The whole fitting shows true craftsmanship - something sadly not often seen any more. I would have no hesitation in using this company again or recommending them.

Shani FowlerFreeIndex5.0 rating

Just had our bedroom refitted with wardrobes, chests of drawers and bedside cabinets and we are thrilled with the end result. Chris and Darren were excellent and the quality of their work is first class. They were a pleasure to have in the house. Chris designed the project and it is just what we wanted. They are excellent craftsmen. Thank you. We would have no hesitation in recommending them.

Jean Boyle4.7 / 5 ·

We have just had our bedroom done by Hirst and Hankin from start to finish everything went smoothly. Chris came and planned and designed with our input. The craftsmanship and quality is of a high standard nothing too much trouble for Chris and Darren. I would recommend them, and look forward to my second bedroom getting done. Thank you Chris and Darren.

Michael Duffy5.0 / 5 ·

Having just had 2 bedrooms refitted we would highly recommend this company. Chris helped us with the design and he came up with some ideas we would never have thought of. Nothing was too much trouble for Chris and Darren and our handmade bedroom furniture looks amazing. We also required the rooms to be re-plastered and some electrical work to be carried out which was done by Andy and Kirk who were recommended by Chris and they both did a brilliant job. Very happy!

M Backhouse5.0 / 5 ·

We recently had fitted wardrobes installed. The process could not have been smoother from start to finish. Communication was excellent from the start and the finished product was lovely. The work was completed in two days with the minimum of mess and all the guys were a joy to have around. Chris helped us with the design, advising us what best fitted our room etc and kept us fully informed at all times of the work schedule. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone considering fitted furniture.

Giles Walker5.0 / 5 ·

Found this company after a couple of unsatisfactory episodes with high street bedroom firms. We have had fitted slide wardrobes in the adult bedroom and a combination wardrobe and desk area in our son's. The guys are a pleasure to deal with. Their quote was way below the high street firms'. The absence of pressure sales was a joy. Upon placing our order with them the process was smooth and hassle free. We were kept fully up to date at all stages and there no hidden cost surprises that we discovered with the high street guys! The work is now done and it's first class. The true test is the Mrs and she is very pleased. Overall delighted from start to finish. I tried these guys due to their reviews so hope this helps future customers. Plus I never write reviews but this one is merited.

Gemma Best5.0 / 5 ·

Chris and Darren fitted two triple wardrobes, two bedside tables and a dressing table in our master bedroom. We are very happy with the service we received, the price and our finished bedroom. Would definitely recommend.

Lenore Rowan5.0 / 5 ·

Last year After an extension to a bedroom we contacted Darren and Chris to fit wardrobes and bedroom furniture. The quality and price was excellentand Chris and Darren are very friendly and professional. Last month we had them back to fit a new oak kitchen. The kitchen needed revamping with non standard units. Again the quality and finish was excellent. Nothing is too much trouble for them.

Karen Forsell5.0 / 5 ·

Just had full kitchen and laminate floor fitted by Darren and Chris. Initial planning was done by Darren which we could view via a software app. Very pleased with the work carried out. We would be more than happy to recommend them to others.

Andrew Guiseley5.0 / 5 ·

Chris and Darren recently fitted two wardrobes in our bedroom. We chose them after getting quoted from Sharps and Hammonds. We were really impressed with the attention to detail shown by Chris when he came to measure up. When the wardrobes were being fitted Chris and Darren kept any disruption to a minimum, important as we have a 9 month old baby! The quality and workmanship of the finished product was excellent and we would have no hesitation in recommending Hirst and Hankin to other prospective customers.

Richard Serra5.0 / 5 ·

Hirst and Hankin recently fitted a new kitchen for us (June 2014). They were very patient and helpful in the planning phase. The installation took a little longer than planned, but this was largely down to delays in some of the delivery of some of the components. Once they started, they were on-site continuously. The wait however has been worth it as we're really pleased with the final result. The standard of workmanship was high and they even spent three hours searching plumbers merchants around the area to find a replacement part for a tap that had failed when they were installing it. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Ann Wood5.0 / 5 ·

Chris and Darren replaced my fitted bedroom in January. Chris came out to discuss and plan the work, he was very professional and happy to talk through options, styles and finishes. He drew up a plan of the room and provided a detailed quote. They removed my old fitted furniture, moved plug sockets as required and fitted my new furniture brilliantly. They are both craftsmen, the quality of the work is super and I'm thrilled with the finished room.

Kathy5.0 / 5 ·

I can not recommend this company enough. They impressed me from day one. Nothing was too much trouble and the craftsmanship and materials were second to none. I know this might sound a little over the top but having dealt with a number of craftsmen/women over the past few months, I feel I am experienced enough now to spot a quality company. We came to Darren with an existing kitchen design and he managed to work around the various requirements to meet our needs. He did a number of virtual designs using very clever software which enabled us to see what the final product would look like. The price was as expected for the range of the kitchen we chose and we had no surprises in terms of 'add-ons' at the end of the job. We made a couple of changes during the fitting process and they told us upfront that it would cost x amount more (nothing ridiculous, all very reasonable). The end result is excellent. We've had the kitchen for 3 months and not one thing has gone wrong. All in all, a very happy customer. Thanks.

Mike & Sheila ...5.0 / 5 ·

We were very impressed with the craftsmanship and the work that Darren and Chris have done in fitting our bedroom wardrobes. Not only are they gifted craftsmen but also very polite and certainly care about their customers. They have turned a rather drab room into one of which we are not only pleased but proud. We will certainly recommend Hirst and Hankin. Thank you Darren and Chris – from Mike and Sheila of Scholes.

Derek Grimston5.0 / 5 ·

Darren and Chris have just completed our new kitchen, we choose them after getting 4 estimates 2 from larger suppliers in the hope that we would get a more personal service, we were not disapointed. There work was of a very high standard and perseverance was way above what we expected when coming across 3 sets of wall and 2 sets of floor tiles which had to be removed, plus waiting for us to decorate and fit new flooring, We have no hesitation in giving them the highest recommendation to anyone who would require there expertise. Again Darren and Chris many thanks. Barbara and Derek July 2013.
