The cost was exactly as quoted.I would use this firm again.

    Kitchen redecoration

    We asked Mike to redecorate our kitchen. He quoted a price that we found was acceptable. We found that his work was of a very high standard. He kept us in touch with the work and ensured that it met with our wishes. All rubbish was cleared and the kitchen was left in good order. We are very pleased with the results and would certainly ask him to work for us again. Thank you Mike. JW

    Repairs to external render and re-paint

    We asked Cronin Building Maintenance to repaint the exterior of our house. This included repairing several cracks to the render and we also got them to re-cap our chimney pots. The work was done to a high standard and for a very reasonable price and the work was completed within the timeframe they included in their estimate so all in all we were very happy with the job they did and they were a pleasure to have around. We'd happily recommend Cronin Building Maintenance and would use them again in the future.

    Painting Public Ways

    DO NOT USE THIS FIRM Exceptionally poor workmanship. Other painters can't believe how bad the job is. No preparation, no filling, poor quality and only one coat of emulsion. Continually saying that they are going to fill and make good at the next stage, they never did. Threatened me with legal action for payment the day after they said they had finished despite not having carried out the snagging... which they have only partially carried out using a different top coat so shows up, still no filling, old stains still visible where should have been stain blocked and then 2 coats of emulsion, where repair to wallpaper it is torn. They admitted to using whatever paint came to hand as they were leaving to come to the job. Avoid this company ... they are full of empty promises of professionalism and use aggressive tactics so that people don't complain about them. They called over 8 times in one day when I was busy at work and then turned up on my doorstep at 8 am demanding payment having produced no invoice and when they did the invoice was incorrect. I tried to get them to finish job but they have got more abusive and aggressive, visiting without notification on more than one occasion and just insist on payment. We feel harassed and vulnerable.

    Answer from tradesperson:

    I would just like to reply – We carried out the work in our quotation. After this, I called the customer for last payment asking her to keep back £330.00 until the tower scaffold was taken down so that we could come back and touch up where necessary – customer paid.We went back and the customer went round with us and said once scaffold was down the touching up needed to be done. This was a communal hallway where people are coming in and out and scuffs marks from buggies etc. happening (that we fully understand happens) but not shoddy work. Despite rudeness from the customer, we were never rude back, and completed a quality job. We feel our positive feedback on this page more than shows the quality of our work and professionalism.
