Once again I found myself in an emergency situation with a huge leak on the kitchen ceiling. I call Mr. Barker, who had done a number of projects and jobs for me and the past. He came around, look at the problem, priced the job and did the work as a matter of urgency. He was punctual, precise and his work outstanding. I have come to know and trust Mr. Barker. He is honest and I can always count on him. In this particular case, he came and did all the work over a bank holiday weekend to ensure that the problem would not worsen. Thank you for all your help Mr. Barker.

Brian was easy to get hold of and easy to deal with. Top marks for quality of work, tidiness, punctuality and price. He's also a really nice bloke who's prepared to go that extra mile. During the course of the work some skirting had to be replaced and radiators removed and then rehung. Brian did all of this at no extra cost. Definitely recommended.

I first met Mr. Barker in 2012 when he tanked and damp proofed the basement of my house. He did an excellent job then. A couple of years later, I called him because I had other issues in the basement. He came and fixed those problems and did not want to charge even though there were unrelated to the work that he had originally done. I have been asking Mr. Barker to help with a number of issues in my house since and he has continued to provide assistance. He is extremely professional, reliable and trustworthy. His latest job for me was related to catching and fixing water leaks from a flat roof. He once again did an excellent job! He is worth every single pound. Excellent value for money! He also cleans up everything. Thank you Brian for all your help! I highly recommend his services.

Brian did an excellent job of damp proofing our hall, which included making good faulty work done by a previous contractor. It was done on time and his invoiced cost was exactly as he quoted. He was very careful to clean up each day before he left and he also took away a large amount of rubbish when he finished. He gave us good advice on redecorating; in fact one of the reasons for choosing him was that we could deal with a single contractor for the whole job; he has now given us a very reasonable quote for redecorating. We also enjoyed his company.

Brian repaired my failed damp proof course, and re-rendered and re-plastered my internal wall. Brian gave me a competitively priced quote and he agreed a start date which he kept to. He turned up on time and finished on time. The final cost was the same as the quote. To me as a lay-person, his work seems to be very good quality. Brian was friendly and interesting to talk to. I felt he was completely trustworthy. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to my friends for a similar job.
