I engaged C & R Services in 2005 to complete a substantial remodelling of my detached 3 bedroomed house, after a recommendation from a work colleague. The work included a bedroom extension and a loft conversion. The quotation provided was by far the most comprehensive and competitive I received, which was an early demonstration of the professional way in which the whole job was tackled. For the loft conversion, the whole roof structure had to be replaced, having previously been trusses, and despite the complexity of the task, and the sometimes appalling weather, the house was always left water tight. The care that C & R Services took is demonstrated by the fact that none of the ceilings suffered damage during the loft conversion work. For the other work, a number of external walls needed to be removed, and this was completed with minimal disruption and mess. The quality of the brickwork and carpentry on all of the extensions is second to none, as is the roof tiling, which is particularly intricate on the roof of the new dining room extension. Every aspect of the work was of the highest standard,and considering the amount of work we were having done it all went more smoothly than we could ever have ever hoped for. The before and after pictures show the quality of the work, and how well C & R Services were able to blend the new build into the original house. This was achieved by reusing bricks and tiles from walls and roofs that were being removed, rather than putting them in the skip, and sending them off to landfill. This green approach also helped in reducing some of the material costs. We have no hesitation in recommending C & R services to anybody that asks, and Chris would be the first person we would call if we were to need anymore building or carpentry work in the future. Overall great people and a quality company that you can not go wrong with.
