We needed a repair to a rainwater gully and drain. We also required new garden fencing, including digging up existing bushes etc. We agreed the quote, the team arrived as scheduled, completed the work in 1 day, left the site clean and tidy. The materials used were good quality. Very pleased with the result. Would definitely use them again.

We had a number of smaller building jobs across the house an outside (summer house), but Gary was happy to accommodate some very specific requirements over an undefined time frame. All the work was done without fuss, to a highly professional standard and each location was left clean and tidy.

I have been a very satisfied customer of Balance and Company for a number of years. They have carried out a variety of jobs for me ranging from the small to the large. The last work they completed for me was to paint the outside of my house. They are always very knowledgeable and helpful, provide detailed estimates and the finished work meets a consistently high standard.

We hired this company to carry out repairs to our leaking roof. The workmen were punctual, efficient and friendly. They completed the job in hand to our entire satisfaction, leaving us with a water tight roof.

I found Balance and Co on Which after having a couple of builder horror stories. I have to say we were delighted with the high quality work in our spare room. We had to have a ceiling removed and replaced and all 4 walls had to cut back and replaced. Old windows removed and replaced. The guys were very friendly and punctual. They worked extremely hard. When we came across extra work to be done. Gary was very good at explaining what needed to be done and got our agreement before work went ahead. After the initial job we asked if they could decorate as well. Gary worked very hard to get the his team to do this especially as this job was not scheduled for. Definitely recommend them .
