Having used Richard before I knew about the quality of his work, and so was keen to get him to quote for refitting my mother’s house. After 2 visits to us and drawing up very comprehensive quotes for each room, Richard was with us for a number of months at the back end of 2023. As with any large project like this, problems arose, but with Richard’s flexibility and experience he effortless found a way around all of them. This included bespoke cupboards for a very awkward part of the kitchen, which quite frankly Richard seemed to relish. Kitchen suppliers providing the wrong size cabinets numerous times, some of which needed cutting down - Richard just worked around it. The structure of the house meant bathroom pipes were much more tricky than hoped; meticulous planning and care taken to tile walls and floors superbly; careful planning when installing radiator/water/waste pipes so they were always right first time - all done with ease. Replacing and altering both frames and doors, all done brilliantly. Not to mention, beautiful painting to freshly plastered walls by his excellent plasterer, Scott. In fact, all the other contractors Richard uses are equally as good. Richard is always on time, tells you exactly what’s happening throughout the job, and not a scrap of mess left at the end of the day. His attention to detail is first class, and everything is finished off to a tee. A thoroughly decent person and someone I will happily use again.

Kitchen refit

We have used Richard on a number of occasions over the last 8 years and this time he was putting in new kitchen units, new extractor fan, under cupboard lighting and shelving. Quite straightforward in theory but we were retaining our existing sink, cooker and worktop, all of which he had installed about 4 or 5 years ago. He removed all the existing units without damaging the worktop or tiling and the job ran very smoothly as we expected, largely due to his adaptability in fitting units which were not always exactly the right size. The quality of his work, attention to detail and ability to find workable solutions to the inevitable unforeseen minor problems which arose were of the highest order and we would certainly use him again. He is, in our opinion, simply the best in his field.

Richard came highly recommended to us by a friend of a friend and we can see why. From when Richard came out to price our kitchen renovation we knew we were in safe hands. He was confident and knew exactly what he was doing. He was taking on a fairly big job with us replacing everything flooring, electrics etc etc which was to be expected in a 40 yr old kitchen but he instantly made us feel at ease. Whilst it all ran smoothly we knew if there was any issues Richard would have dealt with it in his calm manner. His biggest concern was how would I cope without an oven, I was more worried about my washing machine! Over the 5 weeks he was with us I think I went without it for a couple of hours which was amazing considering all the work he had to do. Richard gave us a clear and very accurate estimate both price and time scale. Once work began Richard was always, punctual, polite, clean, tidy and did his best to leave us with a functioning kitchen. Most of all he always communicated well. We cannot recommend Richard highly enough, our kitchen looks great and he made our journey such a positive one 😊

Kitchen Installation - Professional, tidy, excellent finish
Customer Service
Quality
Value
The work carried out by Richard was a complete full kitchen installation replacing an old tatty one that was well overdue a change and not functional any more. This included full removal of units and floor tiling, installation and utilities connections. From the quote visit, Richard provided an inspection and helped answer any questions I had before providing a competitive quote. What swayed me was that Richard offered a full service rather than having to arrange multiple tradesman (plumber, electrician etc.), which made the quality of the job much better and organised. The work carried out was very thorough and to a high standard with Richard able to let me know the schedule and progress whenever requested. He carried out all necessary plumbing and electrical wiring work as well as floor tiling. After each day, he ensured the work area and wherever work was carried out was left clean and tidy so there was minimal disruption left. Living in a flat, this hindered areas to work (cutting materials etc.), however Richard proactively worked around this and was able to effectively complete the work. He was also very accommodating to any requests during the project and if any were possible, he was happy to carry this out to ensure the customer was happy (eg if I wanted something a certain way). Overall, the completed kitchen looks excellent, great attention to detail and I'm very pleased with the finish. It's great to have a fresh new kitchen up and running for 2023.

We wanted to upgrade our kitchen so everything was replaced except the kitchen cabinets. Richard did an excellent job, conferring on decisions and making recommendations where he thought there was a better way. He is polite, thoughtful ( works quietly and always cleans as he goes) and an absolute pleasure to have in the house. He works steadily and to a high standard and I would have no hesitation is recommending him. In fact our friends were so impressed they have him booked in already!

Richard installed our new kitchen but also did an excellent job of everything else we wanted to be done including electrics, plumbing, flooring and painting. His precision and care with everything was truly impressive. Richard discovered a few design issues along the way and was quick to point them out to us, but more importantly, did not make them our problem. He took ownership of the issue and after discussions with the Kitchen Designer, they were quickly resolved thanks to Richard's solutions. The designer commented to me "you are lucky to have Richard". Indeed we were. What stood out was not just the quality of his work (first class), his helpfulness and communication but also his attention to detail. I can highly recommend Richard.

We had a long-standing issue with an ill-fitting bath panel which did not take account of our sloping bathroom floor! Richard researched and found the ideal solution - an adjustable bath panel specifically designed for sloping floors! It was a perfect solution which was perfectly fitted. Richard went the extra mile by enusuring a high quality finish...chrome mirror screws, fine line of sealant and the short length of exposed pipe alongside the end of the bath panel neatly boxed in and sealed. Overall a great job. Would not hesitate to recommend Richard.

Worth the wait

Having contacted Richard initially last summer to do a number of small jobs for me, I had to wait six months between quote/job done, I think because of the ‘covid induced’ demand for handyman services like his. However, Richard’s work was worth the wait! Having had someone else do a really poor job putting up mirrors and shelves, Richard came in to make good – which he did admirably. He also put up a dozen or so pictures for me and was very patient with me changing my mind all the time. He put up a cabinet and boxed in pipes in my bathroom, and particularly the boxing in, was far better than I was ever expecting. He did all this in 2 days. He worked hard both days and took very little time off for lunch/breaks. He was the tidiest handyman I’ve come across – with tools in one hand and his Henry hoover in the other. Even though there was a long time between quoting and the job getting done, he stuck to the exact dates he initially gave me for the work. His quote was emailed to me in a professional spreadsheet form and he stuck to this completely. Throughout the job, he was thoroughly professional in his work and manner - to me, my property and my belongings; and I felt was a genuinely decent person all round. I would absolutely recommend using RJR Services to anyone - even with small, bity jobs like mine. I will definitely be calling on Richard for future jobs I need doing, and would absolutely recommend him to others.

Richard did an amazing job of removing my 30-year-old kitchen and replacing it with new units, compact laminate worktops (which are notoriously difficult to fit), sink and taps, shelving and appliances. The end result is flawless! You can expect absolute attention to detail, he is methodical, takes his time and he never cuts corners to speed up the job - the result is perfection. Richard is a good communicator and he kept me informed throughout the job, he will work with you to overcome unforeseen challenges and he is fair and open with his pricing. I can highly recommend him and that he works best on copious cups of tea and chocolate biscuits!

We had a complete bathroom refit- plaster, electrics, tiles (floor and wall) plus the furniture and fittings. Richard’s attention to detail is second to none and ensures a top quality finish. From the beautifully placed metro tiles to the paint finish it all looks fantastic and we are thrilled with the results. Any problems that come up are met with an attitude of “how can I solve this for you” rather than having to find an alternative. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Richard and we will no doubt use him again.

During the planning of my new kitchen I arranged for Jon from Howdens and Richard from RJR Installation to meet me at the same time at my home to see if some bespoke solutions would indeed be possible, as this would enable me to make the best use of my small kitchen space. Richards input was a great asset at this stage suggesting how he would be able to adapt the Howdens kitchen furniture to suit my requirements. I then engaged Richard to remove my old kitchen and installed the new Howdens kitchen and I am extremely delighted with the end result. His attention to detail and high standards of workmanship are incredible and are second to none. Richard has a great rapport with the small number of specialist contactors he uses who achieve the same level of customer satisfaction. During the removal and installation works Richard kept the work area clean and tidy. I am extremely pleased with the job he has done and have no hesitation in recommending him.

When unexpected setbacks and challenges arose - none of which were of Richard’s making - I was confident that they would be dealt with patiently and determinedly. Attention to detail included meticulous accounting and recording of costs. My contribution was mainly to provide plentiful supplies of tea!

We engaged RJR to help us replace a double butler sink and granite worktops in our kitchen. At first he worked well and removed/loosened the old worktops and helped us order the new taps but we had to order them, the worktops and the new sink ourselves. This ended up being fine. The issues then started when we’d paid him for that and asked him to do the rest of what he agreed to do, fit the new sink, plumb in the taps and wastes and tidy up. He failed to do this claiming it should be done by the granite fitters and as a result we had to get someone in to fit the sink properly, a plumber in three times and a tiler twice which all cost extra and hence we were disappointed.

Richard took over our bathroom renovation after we had to ask the first contractor to leave because of bad workmanship and standards. Although we are out of Richards usual working area because of 'a friend of a friend' he came and took a look at the carnage that was left. A timetable of work and price was agreed but as he was dealing with the unknown the possibility of the work running over was quite possible. Richard was very punctual despite the fact he was travelling over an hour to get to us. His work area has was kept very clean and tidy during his working day and always tidied all tools and equipment before leaving work at the end of the day, Richards attention to detail is second to none, and having been in the trade for some time sees things that you or I may not notice. He kept us informed throughout the time it took to complete the bathroom and we would recommend him for his ability, honesty, and craftsmanship.

Over the last few years we have used Richard for a wide range of handyman jobs around the house and garden, packaged into typically a few days’ work at a time, including painting the summerhouse and shed, re felting the shed roof, installing blinds on the bedroom windows, putting up shelves in the bedroom cupboards, mending a fence, freeing the side gate, and re pointing the brickwork where it had deteriorated. We have found him to be reliable, straightforward, honest, efficient and skilled at a variety of competencies such as carpentry, painting, and bricklaying. The trusted traders scheme requires him to prepare a written quotation, summary and schedule of the work to be undertaken, and Richard takes care with the documentation. This is useful and should be adopted by other contractors since it avoids misunderstandings about the work. We hope to continue to engage Richard for similar jobs in the future.

Richard provided us with a thorough quote before starting our bathroom refit, he took time to make sure he understood exactly what we wanted and continually invited us to make decisions on every detail of our new washroom. After the old bathroom suite was removed, Richard uncovered very poor plumbing and bodged jobs by previous workman, this involved pipework going into our kitchen and bedroom and a leaking soil pipe! Richard was able to rework all of this to a neat and effective system, taking the new challenge in his stride. Richard has an eye for detail, a perfectionist and that is evident in all of his work. Our tiling is a work of art! Our bathroom is now the nicest room in our home and one we are proud to show off. We would throughly recommend Richard and will use him again. He does love a cup of tea and fresh cookies - recommend buying lots of these to keep his energy levels high and your bathroom or kitchen fitted to perfection!

From the quote to the completion of the job, Richard was exemplary. The quote was broken down precisely so there were no surprises along the way. The work commenced exactly when agreed and was completed to a standard that was beyond reproach. Richard's communication was excellent throughout the process and he'd discuss any items that required a decision. Other reviews have mentioned Richards’s tidiness and eye for detail and I can concur. More-over Richards’s quotes are very competitive, especially when considering the quality of his work. It is worth noting that this level of workmanship will take a little longer than for example a Wren or Wickes kitchen fit. However, given the quality of Richards work I can recommend without hesitation.

We contracted Richard to complete our kitchen installation in July 2017. From first contact to completion of the work the service provided was excellent. Prior to starting, Richard visited initially to understand our requirements to ascertain exactly how much supplementary work such as plastering and gas related plumbing was required so that his quote was accurate. He also reviewed all of our plans and designs and visited a second time to confirm all of the measurements prior to us ordering the units etc to ensure it would all fit. Upon starting, Richard arrived promptly each day when stated (including days when other contractors where on site such as plasterer or electrician to ensure every was moving along as expected). All of the work was performed to an extremely high standard, and Richard paid incredible attention to detail, and dealt with a number of unexpected problems such as joist in the way of the extractor fan ducting. We are delighted with the work performed and would happily recommend Richard to anyone who was considering a new kitchen or bathroom, in fact, we wish we had contacted Richard when we had our bathroom completed a little over a year ago!.

Judging from the work he did for us, Richard is an approachable, trustworthy and highly competent handyman. We intend to ask him to do other jobs in the future. We used him to do a range of jobs around the house and garden, and he did them in good time, with a minimum of disruption to us and at a reasonable price. He was also quite flexible. For example, when the loft ladder was not delivered on time for him to install it on the scheduled day, he got on with other jobs instead. We had also asked him to re-felt the shed roof, but it turned out after he had started that some of the wood on the roof was rotten. This was a situation which, like the late delivery of the loft ladder, might have been exploited by some contractors, but Richard simply charged us a reasonable amount for the replacement timber. We would have no hesitation in recommending him for handyman jobs, and given his qualities of professionalism, thoughtfulness etc we would expect him to be good at larger jobs such as kitchen and bathroom refurbishments.

Richard has done 2 jobs for me recently, the more significant being me removal of an existing square shower unit & replacement with a new quadrant enclosure, shower tray & shower. He was highly professional in every way - well organised, on time & courteous while working to a very high standard. I would have no hesitation in using his services again.

We recently employed Richard to perform our kitchen installation and are delighted with the finished product. He took over a partly-completed installation that had run into difficult problems. We had already been advised by someone else to strip out the work that had been previously done, and Richard did this for us and re-installed the units accurately, professionally, and with care. He is very courteous, keen to please, a good problem solver, a good communicator, organised, keeps to arrangements, and pleasant company. His advice was regularly sought and always welcome. We could not have employed anyone better for our situation. We have no hesitation in recommending him, and would employ him again for similar work.

We were looking for someone to do some re-modelling of a section of our kitchen which involved removing an under-counter integrated fridge and moving an existing tall kitchen cupboard to make space for a full size fridge-freezer. This also involved cutting out a section of existing work surface and making good various other bits such as cornices, worktop edges and seals, etc. Richard was extremely professional and courteous from start to finish. He arrived at the exact time we had agreed and set straight to work. Richard kept the work area clean whilst he was working (vacuuming sawdust from the cut work surface, etc) and he was meticulously tidy. The standard of Richard's work was brilliant and he had an attention to detail which made for a seamless finish which we were so very pleased with. Richard was very friendly and easy to deal with and we would definitely use him again. Sean and Carole Hertfordshire

The third occasion that Richard has done general property maintenance work for me, this time outdoors he took down a decrepit wooden shed and removed it completely from site. A very tidy conclusion was achieved of work well done. Whilst here he also looked at an issue with my bathroom shower screen and has also repaired that. Richard is a competent and considerate fitter and good at resolving problems.

We own a listed property in which the kitchen needed complete renovation. The building suffered from significant damp and was not easy to work with. Richard completely gutted the original room, back to brick in some places. He fitted a new damp course and oversaw plastering and new electric supply installation. Richard installed a new tiled heated floor, all of the utilities and kitchen furniture to a very high standard. At all times during the work Richard was very professional, asking about our preferences and giving advice where necessary. He was patient with us as we refined the build and kept everywhere clean and tidy. All in all we are very happy with his work and would happily recommend him to anybody looking to improve their property.
