James telephoned to let us know he was on his way and what time he would arrive. He was on time,efficient,tidy, polite and did a superb job. Every thing you could wish for to get a clean safe chimney.
Appointment booked a month in advance for an 0800-12:00 slot, no one showed up on the day, I spoke to someone on the phone 4 times and only at 16:20 the day of the appointment did they tell me they’re sorry no one is coming Would not recommend from the conversations I have had with this company
