We needed to replace the guttering on our 1930's bungalow and were unsure whether the wooden facias and soffits wouldn't need replacing as well. We wanted to keep them if possible. B.L.S. were the first company who replied to our request for a quote. We received a call from Brian who arranged to come that same day. He arrived promptly and discussed our requirements. After assessing the soffits and facias he offered several options, giving sound advice. He said that the soffits and facias were in good condition except for two areas which he explained could be replaced with new wood. He emailed us his quote within a couple of hours. Over the next few days we received quotes from a further half dozen companies, several gave similar assessments and quotations but we felt confidence in Brian's professional judgement and the estimate he gave. We asked if he would do the job and he came over to take accurate measurements and told us the timeframe for the work to be done, which would be in around a fortnight. In all telephone and email communications, he was friendly and was prompt with any replies. By mutual agreement, the work was carried out earlier due to the weather impacting another job. The two workmen arrived on time (even a few minutes early), were very pleasant and friendly, played with our dogs, worked quickly (only took 5 hours) and did an excellent job. Later Brian rang to check we were satisfied, telling us to contact him with any issues in future.
