Adrian and colleagues completed a number of jobs yesterday all to a very good standard. These included re plastering a wall, repairing and re plastering a ceiling and repairing one of our kitchen cupboards. The work was done to a very good standard for a reasonable price. Everything was cleared up properly and care was taken. He and colleagues were courteous and considerate and we were very pleased with the results. We would certainly recommend Adrian and will definitely use his services again.

A personable and professional chap. Adrian came over to assess my roofing needs and gave a quote. The job was completed in the agreed timeframe and Adrian charged me less than that quoted as the parts he had bought came in cheaper than he anticipated. Happy to use his services again.

I used A W Building Services from Which? I found Adrian good, efficient and an honest person. He and his team worked very hard to finish the job within the time (delayed because of the rain, beyond their control). Well satisfied with the work.

Adrian put up and plastered a stud wall for us, then re-painted five rooms to make our flat ready for sale. His quote was very reasonable and his team was hardworking. There was a day's delay in starting the job, but he notified us well in advance. The team kept disruption to a minimum (as far as possible), always tidied up at the end of the day, and were polite and courteous. There was a small issue with the drying of one of the walls. Adrian came back to resolve the problem without complaint, and refused any further payment for it. Would definitely recommend and would re-employ for further work.

Adrian's firm recently repaired, plastered and painted a damaged ceiling. the job took some days as plaster had to dry. His estimate was reasonable, he and his colleagues were punctual, the job was done and seems fine to me. If Adrian was unavailable on the phone he returned calls quickly. He's doing some decorating work shortly. I first met him some years ago when he removed some plant growths on my roof and was equally reliable and efficient.

This is the third time we have used Adrian, this time to fix taps in a shower room. Two weeks ago, he fitted new tiles on the kitchen floor, preparing the base with care (it had been badly set before). We were delighted with the quality of the work and love the finished floor. Yesterday, we asked him to mend the bathroom taps. He decided they needed to be replaced, went to buy new taps, returned and fitted them within two hours. He is cheerful, careful and never overcharges. We rate him very highly and would not hesitate to ask him to do any job in the house. He is definitely our go-to man!

AW responded very promptly to my request for a quote and gave a very fair price for the small job of putting a cap on a chimney. They could do the job within a week, arrived on time, the job was done with no problems and payment could be made by cheque. Overall very efficient, and would be happy to use them again.

I have had Adrian and team do two other jobs for me and did not hesitate to contact him to do my latest job. That was to fit a side entrance gate made difficult by adjoining neighbours gate and them not ready to having theirs done. Adrian came up with the solution and quoted for the job. Extremely good communication regarding start dates and arrival times. A very good job completed and clearing up great. Highly recommend Adrian and his men.

I have been using Adrian for over 3 years now, my first work was Carpentery and Adrian left excellent impression with time and quality of work, my previous experience with builders had been pretty bad and Adrian change my experience, since then I have been using him frequently for all my painting and other works in my properties. My recent project which Adrian completed was the biggest project I entrusted to him and to my surprise he exceeded my expectation it involved complete house decorating, fencing, plastering, electric works and bathroom. I have already agreed my garage conversion and summerhouse with him. His team is excellent and work quality matches none. He is most honest builder I have come across in my experience of last 12 years. He is one stop shop for all type of work.

Adrian and his team carried out a complete kitchen renovation including knocking down a wall to garden, replacing with glass sliding doors, new flat roof, underfloor heating, redoing patio to match existing paving, re siting utility room, creating temporary kitchen, electrical work and decorating. He liaised with suppliers and project managed the whole thing. Adrian was on site every day and he communicated constantly to update us on what was happening. He finished the job on time and at agreed costs. We would highly recommend him and plan to book him for more work in the near future.

Adrian and his team did a fantastic job redoing our skirtings, architraves and coving, painting the walls, building a cupboard unit from scratch and fitting carpets. They took great care to make sure we were happy with every detail. Even though our wonky old house made fitting it all a lot less straightforwad, they honoured their original quote for the basic works and were flexible enough to accommodate additional requests we had during the job. The team were prompt, hard working and always in great spirit. The house at the end has been completely transformed and we're delighted with the job they did.

Adrian and his team completed a fair bit of work on the front of my Edwardian home - removing part of a heavy panel of plaster, fixing a large crack in the wall underneath, rendering and painting the whole area, filling the existing large bay window frames (which were in a pretty poor state) and fixing holes in the brickwork. Then they painted all of the woodwork on the windows and the front door and weatherproofed all of the walls. They were professional, thorough and amazingly fast at a reasonable cost. Real hard workers! And always open to answering any questions. They also used quality products. They were recommended by both of my neighbours and I am very happy that I can now wholeheartedly recommend them to other home owners. I am definitely going to use them again. Nice guys too.

Adrian and his team came to repair part of our roof and the ceiling in a bedroom as well as clearing the shutters and dealing the joints. They work extremely hard and are very diligent in cleaning up after they finish. We have used Adrian several times in the past and will be very happy to use him in future.

I phoned Adrian on a Friday morning in the hope of getting a continuous dripping leak from a toilet cistern repaired as soon as possible. One plumber I had used in the past could not help me on this occasion. Adrian phoned me back in the morning and arranged to look at the problem later in the day. His colleagues arrived at the end of the afternoon and solved the problem. Leak was repaired. Excellent service for what some would regard as a small job and on a Friday afternoon!

The team worked very hard and completed the work (both inside and outside) quicker than I expected. They kept me closely informed and managed my expectations very well. The work was done to a high standard and they were very thorough - if I raised a query they dealt with it immediately. Work was carried out to the agreed budget, including some small extras that I asked for as the work progressed.

Two-Storey Extension - Completed to time, budget and Building Reg standard.

I initially found Adrian of AW Building Services via the Which Trust a Trader portal, and after reading a few reviews I hired him to to complete some internal roof repairs on my home. The job was completed to a high standard, within the quoted estimate, and well within the allocated time slot. With the above in mind I further hired him and his crew to complete a double-storey extension on a property I had just obtained planning consent on. This was a large extension, containing many different building skills that all needed to be performed to a high standard to satisfy those of the local authority. I am happy to report that in September of this year the property was signed-off by Building Regs, and barring one or two very minor snagging issues (that were very quickly remedied) we have had no other issues whatsoever with the build, which I can assure you is a rarity on such a large extension. I will sign-off by saying that Adrian and his team are very hardworking, polite, professional and efficient, and I would have no qualms at all in recommending them to anyone.

We were very fortunate to find Adrian and his team to help us make our new house habitable over the last few months. This included excellent plastering of the entire house followed by painting throughout all to an extremely high standard and also to do carpentry work. We found Adrian to be very polite, hard working and helpful throughout the process. We are still continuing to use his services with no hesitation of being well looked after.

We used AW in June 2014 and have been very pleased with the final job. The work included rendering a tall chimney, repairing cracks in the render to the front walls and painting the whole of the front of the house both masonry and wood. We also had one room that had suffered damp from leaks completely re-plastered and painted so that it is like new.The external work required scaffolding for access and it went up when planned and came down as soon as it was no longer needed. The work was done on time and to quote. Any extras that we asked for were quoted promptly. AW was very keen to go over any last minute snagging and solved unforeseen minor problems without any extra charge.
