Handyman- 30 Sep 2018
Having just moved to Cornwall into a rental we needed a handyman to help put pictures, shelving and curtain poles up but with experience and professionalism due to our obligations to rectify any damage under our tenancy. Shaun was really professional, carried out all jobs to an excellent standard and completed the same in a timely manner. Pricing was fair and was more than happy to give a tip as we were really pleased with the results. Was very friendly and polite and his advice concerning certain jobs was greatly received. I would highly recommend Shaun and will be calling upon his services again when we move into our new property next year. Thanks again Shaun.

We needed some urgent help painting walls in our two-bed flat and Ray came to the rescue at very short notice. He came on time, cleaned up after himself and was pleasant, polite, an very hardworking. He did a great job in tricky circumstances, working fast to help us get the flat ready, and we were impressed by how much he managed to paint in a single day. I would definitely recommend hiring him.

Bathroom Fitting- 20 Mar 2018
A very well deserved 10/10 for Stefan and his team. This is how all home renovations should be done. Every day they turned up bang on time, worked their socks off and cleaned up afterwards. They even cheered me up when I was having a rotten week of dental work. I can't believe how efficient they were. I only wish I'd know Stefan years ago when I first started work on my wonky old house. He would have had it finished quickly and to impeccable standards. I'll be asking them back to do more work on my house as they were absolutely great - friendly, helpful, kind and extremely knowledgeable. Special mention for Ben; thank you for the fabulous tiling which all matched up perfectly every leaf, twig and branch! Thank you so much :-)

Very happy with Omega's work. They were quick to respond and quote for the work. Quoted price was very good value and they were able to start quite soon after quoting. Work quality was excellent and completed quickly and to schedule - they put in long days and did not let the work drag on or over run. They stripped old wall paper in lounge to find the walls in very poor state and recommended the walls to be plastered which they did at a very reasonable price and completed very efficiently. They papered room with lining paper and painted over. They sanded wood work & glossed and tiled a fireplace. They even fitted a down light. Nothing was too much trouble for them and it was good they could cover so many trades. Excellent bunch of guys and I would definitely use them again and have no reservations in recommending them to anyone.
