Charles did a wonderful job installing my kitchen despite the need to remodel several units to fit my wonky room. The results are perfect and I whole-heartedly recommend him to handle any building or plumbing task. Always on time and a pleasure to have on site.

agreed to come and look to give a quote but never came
Having had a bad experience with another prospective "no-show" contractor, I thought I would try a Which Trusted Trader for a gutter replacement job. I phoned this company and discussed my needs. They agreed to come round the following day to have a look with a view to providing a quote. I said I would be in and they said they would phone to confirm the time. They didn't phone, they didn't come. I had wasted a day staying in. I am disappointed by this behavior, which sadly seems quite prevalent in the house repair industry. I am also disappointed by the Trusted Trader scheme. I can't understand the lack of decency or basic business common sense - a lot of work can come through personal recommendation. A simple phone call to say "sorry we won't be able to do that after all" would have been fine.

Tricky water leak & ceiling repair

Charles was referred to me through another Which Trusted Trader. He popped around straight away to check the water leak and do an initial diagnosis. We agreed a start date and Charles arrived and did all the investigations, cutting through the ceiling to access underneath the shower unit. The leak turned out to come from two places and required Charles to do a couple of visits, repairs and tests to fully resolve. Then the job was finished off with a lovely replastered ceiling. Really good communication, very thoughtful, and pleasant to work with. A true professional.

I purchased a new home at the start of lockdown. I wanted to have quite a lot done to the property and thought it would be difficult and stressful. I was extremely lucky to be introduced to Charles. He viewed the property with me and we discussed the initial work I wanted doing. His input as to what was needed and likely cost was invaluable, as was advice on sourcing materials. The project included building a garage, replacing all radiators and light switches and fittings, refurbishment of 3 showers, cupboards in the utility room and tiles in the kitchen. In addition to all this, Charles also helped with hanging pictures, building furniture, relaying outdoor steps and lights and fixing light shades. His work has throughout been to the highest standards. He is tidy and very pleasant to deal with. His attitude is can do. He has always communicated well on costs, timescale and available options. The project has been a pleasure.

New Bathroom

We needed a completely new bathroom fitting, including shower and cabinet, tiling, new ceiling and wall insulation. As a customer, it couldn't have been any easier - completely trouble-free. Work was done to a high standard, any last-minute alterations accommodated without fuss and finished within the time estimated. Highly recommend.

I found Charles on a website, got two quotes one for him and one from another builder for the job I wanted , even though Charles was a bit more expensive he sounded like a good bloke and gave me good feeling that he was capable of doing a good job, I struck gold with him. He first did a kitchen installation and a months later he did the complete bathroom. He and his apprentice were always on time and were very friendly. Cleaned up every day before the left. Would recommend him!

Charles is very good. I moved into my bungalow and he put in 2 new bathrooms, a kitchen, windows, did a porch at the front, a patio at the back and a drive way so I can park my car. He doesn't use rubbish stuff, and when he does a foundation, he does a good solid job. He's always easy get hold of the phone as well. He had a fellow with him that was hoover mad, he was hovering and cleaning around the place and I said I'd be happy to have him permanently! Charles really doesn't mess things up

They knocked together our kitchen, into our dining room , removed the old kitchen and put in a new one and put two stood walls on the landing. Chris and the two other gentleman were very open with how long everything would take and if they found any issues and they always contacted me, if they found anything, to get my opinion before they progressed. I've, also, never had builders that care so much about being tidy

Charles has done a few things for us, the largest thing was renovating the kitchen, including structural renovations to accommodate my design. He's a very competent man, he arranged and did plumbing and electrical changes and liaised with the marble top suppliers so arranged for everything to work, like a management role. He's brilliant, a really nice man, really trustworthy. If he can't do it he knows someone that can, if he hasn't got it he knows how to get it and his plastering is second to none.

Charles enlarged the loft hatch, fitted a loft ladder and boarded the loft in my house. He also fitted a light tube and new extractor fan to the internal bathroom. He was efficient, reliable, tidy and competitively priced and I'm pleased with the results.
