What our customers are saying
The work was excellent
Marco repaired two sash windows for me. The work was excellent, the price good value and Marco was courteous and professional throughout. I would happily recommend him.
Impressed
We used Marco for both window refurbishments and replacement sashes in our Edwardian home. Absolutely nothing negative to say about the service, high quality and excellent delivery of the job. We love our new windows and were impressed with Marco. He was tidy, thorough and professional throughout and we would highly recommend him. The job price was also very competitive.
A friendly and professional service throughout
I was very satisfied with the work from estimate to completion. Marco was thorough in identifying what needed to be done, explained it in detail and outlined all the options. He was reliable throughout the process. Dates and times were adhered to and the installation went smoothly. They tidied up at the end of the day and left everything clean when the job was finished. A missing part was reordered and fitted within three working days. A friendly and professional service throughout. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.
Went above and beyond
Marco did an absolutely superb job repairing my bay window. He went above and beyond in order to get it exactly right, spending additional time sourcing and fitting the right materials without charging extra. He was exceptionally polite and helpful throughout, clearly describing the various design options available at each point. He was highly punctual, and always responded to texts and calls quickly. He tidied up thoroughly at the end of the job, leaving it immaculate. I recommend him strongly, and will definitely be calling him again the next time I need a job done.
Very happy!
Marco was great – quick and easy to communicate with and did a fab job with my windows. They have been heavy, stuck shut, or constantly falling open/closed for years now and he made them perfect again – very happy!
A great job
I contacted a number of the larger companies on here with good reviews but found they would not complete small jobs. Marco was recommended by one of them. He did a great job fixing the window and was able to complete the work a few day’s after my initial enquiry. He arrived on time, worked quickly and tidied up after the job. He also charged a fair price which was as originally quoted. I would definitely recommend him and would use him again if needed.
