Carpentry- 10 Sep 2016
I'm just discovered that through some oversight I've neglected to leave feedback on this job - replacing an old garden pergola, quite a large one. Lucas and his colleagues did excellent work and we were very happy with everything. We would certainly hire him/them again - if he's not too booked up, that isc! Highly recommended. Christopher Sykes

Roofing (Flat)- 20 Feb 2012
I used John to replace my kitchen roof and fill it with insulation. John is a friendly person, easy to get on with, offered a very competitive quote and got on with the job very quickly. He actually gets involved with his work and talks it through with the customer; he suggested a better solution than the one I originally asked for. The finished job looks excellent, was good value and has given me a much more comfortable room. Highly recommended.

Painting & Decorating- 4 Aug 2015
Luke was a marvellous example of what a good tradesman should be. From initial contact, preparing a swift and comprehensive quote and completing a domestic decorating job superbly. Luke cares about his standard of work and about the customer's home equally, working fast but with care and accuracy. There are many rogue tradespeople in this area but you can rest assured that Wells & Co are definately not in that category and that your home is safe. If you are after a tradesman with the values that used to exist and I thought had vanished then you cant go wrong with Luke.

We required our ceiling to be painted after we'd had it re-plastered, and our lounge and diner to be painted. Michael was excellent at responding to any messages I sent him, he always turned up on time and has done a fantastic job in re-decorating our lounge and diner. Due to my working hours it was difficult for me to be at home during the week so Michael didn't hesitate in offering to work over the weekend. He is extremely reliable and his rates were very competitive. I would highly recommend him and will certainly use him again.

Painting & Decorating- 3 Jan 2017
Gary is a skilled decorator and hard worker. He is reliable and was punctual and completed the job within timescales. His prompt initial quote was reasonable, particularly as I wanted the job doing quickly - and I would say his work is good value for money. In fact I have been so pleased with his work that he has returned to do more and I have recommended him to my friends - 5 stars Gary!

Paul has done a lot of work on my house (a large, detached, rendered house). In 2016 he painted the outside of the house and, as I was very pleased with that result, in 2017 I asked him to decorate the lounge, study, hall, stairway and kitchen. This included stripping wallpaper, making good any cracks and painting doors, woodwork and walls. During both jobs he was efficient, polite, honest and friendly. The kitchen and stairway painting was, in fact, done whilst I was on holiday which shows the level of trust I had in him.

Nick was amazing! He was very good value for money, efficient and polite. He arrived during the time he said and finished the job on the same day. He was honest and reliable, fixing the job to a high specification. His workmanship was second to none and he will be my first port of call for any other jobs I have!

Carpentry- 13 Nov 2026
My first impression of Dan was that he was very helpful and seemed keen to do the job. We agreed a price and arranged a site visit, however circumstances meant he could not stand which was ok these things happen, I asked that he just let me know when he was free to come again. As I had not heard anything I left 2 text Messages, no reply, then left a voicemail Message asking him to contact me, no reply, called again today and the call was cancelled. What started as a positive experience as unfortunately ended in disappointment therefore I cannot comment on the quality of workmanship but based on my experiences communication and reliability have been very poor.

Handyman- 19 Feb 2018
I first contacted a few other handymen for this job. One didn't show up at the first appointment. Another didn't show up on the day we agreed to do the work. Both of them never called or texted me to let me know that they were not coming. We wasted all morning waiting, very frustrating! I then contacted Rafal. Rafal came quick, arrived on time, did an excellent work as I asked for. He is a very hard working man. We're very happy with his service, would highly recommend him to anyone who requires handyman work!
