Highlights
"Richard came to view the proposed work, provided really useful advice that helped with my decision-making and made me confident in his experience with treating older houses re the damp issues they can experience. During the work itself, he was always punctual, extremely tidy, showed me each step of the process, talked me through what he was doing and why. Before he left, he answered all my questions on what might happen next, how long to wait before re-instating decoration and the do's and don'ts I need to follow when I do. Also said I could whatsapp photos over to him if I ever had any queries or concerns. He finished on schedule and washed my floor on his way out. Professional to a T and a lovely man to boot. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend."
"I'm really happy with my new bathroom. Richard was a pleasure to work with. He is reliable, communicates well and has lots of good design ideas, but always consulted me before making choices. His prices are competitive with no compromise on the quality of the work. I will definitely ask him do carry out more projects here in future."
"The shower drain was blocked and water flowed under the door on to the upstairs landing, through the ceiling to the kitchen below. Richard sorted this blocked shower pipe very quickly and efficiently. He also replaced 2 basin taps in the bathroom along with replacing a garden tap. In addition, he fitted a new toilet seat at no extra cost. Richard did a very job job & I would highly recommend him. J Robertson, Holloway"

Richard sourced and fitted a beautiful new external oak door which suited my home. He ensured the new locks fitted correctly and that the door was weather tight. He discussed all options for harware etc. to ensure he sourced items I would like. He is approachable and knowledgeable. Happy to discuss his choices and really good at explaining the nuances. Always cleans up well after his work. Always on time. Thank you for another job well done. I highly recommend him. (I've already told my friends about his good work)
Del has been great, painting and decorating to a high standard. Paying attention to detail, he made improvements to our décor, came up with solutions to problems, clearly explaining the work to be carried out and materials to be used. I have no hesitation in recommending him and will use him again in the future.
Richard was strongly recommended to me from friends who have used "trust a trader" with mixed reviews and opinions. Thankfully Richard was scoring a 10/10 so I asked Richard to quote me for a variety of works from plumbing, tiling and various painting modes. In my opinion Richard is a skilled tradesman who takes the time to take on any task with the proper attitude of competing the tasks in the correct manner. My old apprentice teacher always said, "there's only one way to do a job, and that's the proper way". I found this to to be Richard attitude too which is why I can confidently recommend Richard as a competent tradesman.
Very personable, friendly, polite and helpful.
Excellent work carried out by Del. The standard of work was first class and he was prompt, polite and a complete pleasure to deal with. I absolutely wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and will certainly contact him for our next project.
