The quality of his work is simply second to none, great advice on paint supplier/colour/finish and not withstanding the additional problems we had with our sash window degrading due to the apartment being unoccupied/being prepared for sale. Dave managed every aspect of this and not only completed the work on time, but within our agreed budget. Dave, we look forward to seeing you when we need to redecorate our new property."
