“Thank you Elliot for repairing the surround of my garage door and painting it. A job well done! With the added touch of making me a neat little lever to hold up the garage door which had a habit of sliding down on it's own! Brilliant! and is so much nicer than me propping it open with a stick! Thank you!”

“I Timber are top-notch oak specialists who make all sorts of lovely furniture and more besides. Having discovered them on the net, I spotted and bought a solid oak block table, and although the first attempt got a little bit bashed while in transit, that was no problem for this company, whose ultra-speedy and friendly response meant that a replacement block turned up in a matter of days - in perfect condition, and looking very beautiful! We're so pleased with it. I really can't recommend the product quality and service I've experienced from I Timber highly enough, and would like to thank Radka especially, for being always kind and helpful. Best wishes to all!”

“Visited a few times over this weekend during a bathroom refit. Staff were brilliant and knowledgeable. The young lady there was brill and really knew her stuff. She knew exactly what I needed for the job.”

“A big thank you to Debbie, Jordan and the team at Howdens, Faraday Close. Debbie came to our home and planned our kitchen for us. She listened to what we would like to incorporate and came up with a wonderful layout. We kept visiting the showroom, as we were undecided on the cupboard fronts etc and each time we turned up, we were treated very well. We changed our minds a couple of times, new plans were produced, but was no trouble to Debbie. Once our kitchen was delivered, any problems we had were speedily resolved.”
