We are local to Great Shelford, working here and in the neighbouring towns and villages throughout the week. Here is the area we cover:
What local customers say
Assembled an entire bedroom of flat-pack wardrobes and drawers that I had given up on. Fast, friendly and left the room cleaner than it was found.
Fixed a leaking gutter and a slipped roof tile that two other firms had not bothered to call back about. Turned up when promised and explained exactly what was wrong.
Painted the whole downstairs and hung new doors. The finish is faultless and the dust sheets and care taken with our furniture were a really nice touch.
Sorted the fence after the winter storms, replaced three posts and re-hung the gate. Solid work at a fair price, and done in a day.
Came out to baby-proof the house before our little one started crawling. Thoughtful suggestions we had not even considered, and everything fitted securely.
Jet-washed a driveway and patio that we thought were beyond saving. The difference is incredible, it honestly looks brand new again.
