All of the ceiling lights went out in my kitchen. I’d checked the fuse box and nothing had tripped, so got in touch with Bliss & Co via email. I’d had a problem with granite worktops in my kitchen the year before, and had spoken to Gary. While he wasn’t able to do the job I needed done, (cutting fitted granite in situ), he did recommend someone nearby who was a granite specialist, and the job was completed to my satisfaction. So I had no hesitation in emailing them again when the lights went out. I mailed on a Saturday evening, (18 June) and a swift appointment was made for Monday 20th June. I got a really fast reply from Dale Bliss (even though he was away on his hols - thank you, Dale) who deals with the electrical side in the company. Archie rang me on the morning of the 20th and asked if it would be convenient for him to get to me a little earlier - of course, it was! He identified and resolved the problem, even though it meant pulling up a couple of floorboards in the bathroom above the kitchen. He was quick, polite, professional and very tidy. I was really impressed, and wouldn’t hesitate to use this company again. Thanks to all involved.

I found Balance & Company via a Checkatrade leaflet posted through my door. By coincidence a neighbour had recently used them. They provided a prompt estimate, booked a date and carried out the work on schedule. Communication was excellent from beginning to end. The job site was kept tidy and cleaned before they left. The tradesman were polite and efficient and worked hard throughout the day. I am very happy with the standard of work and would not hesitate to use this company again. From my experience they can be thoroughly recommended.

Excellent job providing professional advice to select and procure three new internal hardwood doors and fittings and then replace and dispose of three existing doors in a timely manner. On completion, Garry and his team left everything clean and tidy and I think were as pleased as us with the finished result.

Replacing problematic guttering. We have a conservatory, so they had to erect complicated scaffolding over this. They turned up when they said they were going to, work was carried out to a fantastic standard. They even did some extra work that wasn't initially agreed. Really felt they went above and beyond on our job

I was happy with the quality of work. They didn't try to raise the price at all, they just agreed on a reasonable price. The customer service was great. They were happy to communicate with my daughters in case I forgot anything or If I had a worry. I would recommend them.

Gary and his team installed new quartz worktops to our existing kitchen, plus new sinks and jobs. Also fitted new back door. All the work was carried out to a high standard, the site was kept clean and tidy and everyone involved was polite and helpful. Delighted with the work carried out and it was reasonably priced too.
