Done-for-you

Geoff recently completed a challenging project for us, rebuilding a custom shower cubicle that had been badly damaged by a water leak we hadn't noticed. Geoff gave us a clearly understandable quote, was honest about his availability and having given us a date he could start, he arrived on time. When it was obvious the job was bigger than first expected he explained the additional work that would be required and did everything he could to complete on time. We are very happy with the work Geoff did for us and I would have no hesitation in using him again or recommending him to other people.

Geoff did a terrific job of transforming my downstairs toilet. Fitted new toilet, sink and radiator proficiently, complimented with beautiful new tiling and full repaint. Delighted with the end result.

We are delighted with Geoff’s refurbishment of our bathroom. He managed the whole project to time and budget. This involved removal of the old suite, tiling floor to ceiling and refitting. The work was done to a very high standard. He is knowledgable: providing advice and consulting appropriately. We certainly recommend him.

This is the second project that Geoff has done for us and we are equally highly pleased with this as we were with the first project. It involved removing an ancient kitchen and non-structural wall with dining room, removal of old flooring, fit of new wiring, plastering, new kitchen and decorating. Geoff acted as project manager across all of the activities (kitchen and worktop suppliers, plasterer, electrician and supplies) as well as doing the majority of the work himself. Geoff’s work was to a very high standard and he put in a lot of hours to ensure that the kitchen stayed to schedule. We had some problems with appliance deliveries and flooring due to supply shortages and Geoff was excellent to work around this to sequence the work. Geoff is reassuring in how he describes the work to be done and was accurate on the cost estimate. Very importantly, Geoff is tidy during the job to keep the inevitable mess to a minimum. We will be very keen to use Geoff for our next project.

Geoff completely removed our existing kitchen and installed a new one designed and supplied by Howdens. It was done in a timely manner and with financial transparency. Any budget variations were discussed and agreed. We particularly valued his advice on various aspects of the project. He is tidy, well organised and kept us informed every step of the way. We have no hesitation in recommending Done-For-You.

Very happy to highly recommend Geoff, he's just completed my bathroom ahead of schedule and under budget. Fastest tiling I've ever seen. He's reliable, hard working, personable, very precise and trustworthy and takes pride in his work and a pleasure to have working in the house. He was quite chilled about my Moroccan themed bathroom and the result is excellent. Also hung a hugely heavy and tricky front door for me, mainly because I pleaded. So worth waiting for, if only we could just clone Geoff.

We were delighted with Geoff's work. We needed lots of odd jobs done, so were very happy when Geoff had to wait for another customer's plaster to dry, leaving him free to come and give us a few hours work. He arrived on time and motored through all the list we had drawn up - putting up a curtain rail, attaching a chain to the front door, replacing a cupboard hinge, mending our garage door, etc. even changing tricky light bulbs. The bill was less than we expected because he had worked so steadily and was working on a day rate.

Geoff replaced a line of old kitchen floor tiles which had cracked. He did a very careful job taking up the old tiles and removing the previous adhesive. The new tiles were fixed using a flexible adhesive so the same movement issue (hopefully!) does not arise. He also took care in selecting the correct grout colour to match the existing floor. Overall a very professional job executed with care. An added plus was the final invoice came in slightly below the original estimate. I would have no hesitation in using Geoff again.

We chose Geoff on the basis of the other reviews on here and I am so glad we did as he lived up to them all. From the first contact communication was exceptional. He is extremely well organised and has a very polite and friendly manner. He arrived on time and got on with the work (despite a heatwave), tidied up before he left and was very considerate to our needs whilst the work was being done. Costs were as estimated and we are very pleased with the wonderful bathroom and cloakroom he has left us with and would not hesitate to recommend him.

Geoff refitted my bathroom 18 months ago and did such a good job that he was my preferred choice to fit my new kitchen. As ever, Geoff proved to be a conscientious and skilled workman - he starts at 8.00am prompt and works throughout the day with only a short break. He certainly prides himself on his work. With this job there were logistical issues stemming from the fact that I caught covid just after he had stripped away the old kitchen, Geoff rescheduled other work in order to return when I was well again. Geoff offers sound advice regarding the sourcing of furnishings and even added an extra half-day to the job in order to complete other small jobs around the house - a welcome addition given that there is so much pressure on his time. There were predictable issues with the refit, including replacement of the old electrics which had been shoddily done in the past. As a consequence I now have the kitchen that I wanted, that is correctly organised and that my partner and I feel safe in. I can highly recommend Geoff, he is a true professional and good company. You may find that there is something of a lead-time prior to him starting work but that is normal for quality craftsmen and he is worth waiting for.
