Reviews

“Better than brand new.”

5.0from 42 Google reviews

“Billy finished working at our house today. We had a large lounge that need restoration plus hallway. I cannot recommend Billy or his work enough. I’d give 10 stars if I could! Our floors look amazing. Better than brand new. Nothing was too much trouble and he was very considerate when I was changing my mind on colour every 20 seconds. 😂 He also arrives on time each day, was polite and well mannered and very trustworthy. Craftsmen like this don’t come along often. Thanks Billy.”

“We had Billy sand and treat 3 floors. Very knowledgeable about the woods, the process and the aftercare. Billy kept us informed the whole way through and gave us options and choices for the end finish. Can’t recommend him enough”

“Billy did an excellent job restoring our oak flooring, and we’re extremely pleased with the finished result. He was professional, helpful, reliable and very easy to work with from start to finish. He clearly takes pride in his work and made sure everything was completed to a very high standard. We would definitely recommend him and wouldn’t hesitate to use his services again.”
