    Joiner

    George Smith came & fitted 8 interior doors for me while my wife was in hospital. He did a brilliant job, a real tradesman of the old school. Honest, reliable & hard working. He even said that he had said a prayer for my wife. He will be welcome in my house to do any more jobs I need doing. Thanks George, in this day of cowboys & young pretend to be's you are a shining example

    Kitchen floor tiling required.

    George is a pleasant and polite guy. He works steady but hard, takes pride in his work and goes out of his way to make sure you are happy with the job. I would recommend him to other people looking to get work done.

    George is polite and pleasant. He certainly doesnt rush things and does a good job. I believe him to be very trustworthy. I am pleased and will be asking him to work for me again shortly.

    Tiling a bathroom

    George is an extremely dedicated workman. Although there was a bit of delay in starting the job, he worked very hard to fit in with my plumber's schedule. He got on with his job and even cut tiles outside in the snow! I have to say even my neighbour were impressed with his dedication and commitment. He also gave me helpful advice on the edging. Thank you George for being so professional.

    remove old bath,toilet and basin and fit new.

    Removal of existing bathroom suite and replace with new. Following installation i found sink waste to be leaking(i repaired). 3 days later new bath developed a crack on inside wall.Found that the hot water feed pipe(brass nut) was butt up against the back of bath wall,and with the pressure from a full bath and the hot nut, the inside acrylic lining of the bath cracked.The feed pipes should NOT have been touching the bath wall.Also found that the p-trap bath waste was leaking. Then discovered that the toilet waste was leaking. George had used silicone around all the joints and i discovered that the bath p-trap was not aligned, square on, with the bath waste pipe.George and his partner had used the old toilet waste pipe with lashings of silicone to seal. I repaired the toilet waste with a new pan connector(no silicone needed. I replaced the cracked bath with another new bath which George,to his credit came back to fit. George's insurance(if he has any-please check if you hire him-i didn't)did not pay for this bath-I did. I repaired the bath waste leaking by fitting a new ring washer to the p-trap and ensuring it was aligned square on.Again silicone free,and no leaks. George fitted my new shower valve,but damaged(scratched) it in the process.His only comment"oh dear". The shower valve was not level and it was leaking slightly.When i pointed this out to George he stood in the new bath,WITH HIS SHOES ON,to put right the fault.For added security he put a little silicone around the shower valve nuts to deter any leaks.When I removed it i found the valve had a small leak.I have had this repaired. To summarise.....George likes silicone to "seal" joints. If there is a leak,then silicone only moves it along to somewhere else. I would have no hesitation in NOT reccommending George for this type of work.

    Answer from tradesperson:

    He purchased all off e.bay.ie. Bath £10. this shows what type of person he is. would like to say more but not allowed by my builder.If you would like to know more please give me a ring. I advise tradesman to stay well clear of this person. we all get one occasionally.

    joiner/kitchen fitter

    George was very pleasant and accommodating and did a really good job for us. We will more than likely get him back in the New Year to upgrade the bathroom. We would have no hesitation in using him again. He has real pride in his job and his prices are very reasonable.

    Joiner - Laminate flooring

    I would like to thank George and Pete for the amazing job that they did! They worked extreemly hard and produced an exceptional result! I would recommend them to anyone and already have requests for their number! They were extreemly professional and worked tirelessley to ensure that the job was finnished. They went the extra mile and called me whilst doing the job to ask how I would like a particular part of the job doing. They also called once they had left to remind me to do something. Truley exceptional - I will certainly be asking them back in the new year to fit a new bathroom for me! With thanks to you both

    Fit Kitchen

    The work was completed and overall we are happy with what was done. Due to a few issues it took slightly longer than was expected, including leaving us a night without hot water, however the finish is of a good standard. George and his colleague where very polite and reliable and George has been in touch personally for feedback and offered to fix any problems we have found which we are yet to take up. There are a few issues, including the odd scratch on the worktops, that can be fixed, and on the new sink, which can't. The breakfast bar is installed and stable but does not rest on the batten they fitted to the wall, rendering the batten pointless. There are a few other issues which they blame on the worktops and sink, however we will know more when it is seen by someone from the suppliers. Overall we would probably recommend, however if more care was taken with some of the finishing touches, we would not hesitate to do so.

    Replacement of complete bathroom.

    George was professional and experienced in all aspects of this job. The job was a replacement of a complete bathroom. Being a war pensioner I require punctuality and an eye for detail and professionalism - George has all of these attributes and a pleasant personality to boot. There were a few small teething problems over a couple of days, but with one phone call George came to rectify them. I have no problems in recommending George to future clients and I would certainly use his services again.
