Report
Don popped by on Friday afternoon to give me a quote for a few small plumbing jobs. Instead of returning on another occasion, Don very kindly fixed them all there and then and even replaced a couple of taps for us at the same time. His invoice arrived today and was extremely reasonable. His service has been first rate and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Thanks Don

Don came round to fix a few things in my flat. Was bang on time, friendly and was finished before I knew it. Would 100% use again and happily recommend.
