Patricia - Image 1 "Prior to Ben arriving on the day we had been emailing each other about the work and getting a quote. Ben was professional from the beginning. On the day he arrived got on with the work with limited interruption. He was a pleasure to deal with and I look forward to more work from him. I've also referred him to my friend."
