Ian came round to take a look at a damp patch that had started showing up on one of the utility room walls. He turned up on time, was really friendly, and clearly knew what he was talking about. He gave everything a proper check over and explained what was likely going on in a way that actually made sense. He didn’t try to make a mountain out of a molehill or push for any unnecessary work—just gave honest, practical advice on what to do next. Really appreciated how straightforward and helpful he was.

Remus and Ionut at R&J did an absolutely fantastic job of renovating our bathroom, kitchen, hallway, landing and stairs. I had a very exact idea and plan of what I wanted and Remus brought it to life, making sure every detail was correct and finished to the highest standard. We hired R&J as Remus has lots of great examples of work he had done before, was very keen to talk over the job and was competitively priced. Remus was great to work with and I would recommend R&J to anyone.

Joseph arrived late, brought incorrect and insufficient materials & took 8hrs to finish 3 small jobs. When I raised concerns, he deflected blame & suggested I buy more materials or have the job incomplete. I had to call for help to intervene before he agreed to complete the work. After paying, he made inappropriate comments about how I should have negotiated with him & about 'understanding people's minds.' I wouldn’t recommend his services, I wish him the best and hope he continues to improve his skills.

Following our move into our new house I needed to clear out the back garden, which looked overgrown and unappealing. Anthony and Ed carried out a comprehensive clearance of my garden from overgrown shrubbery, broken down flowerbed-edging and removing all the stumps. While there were a few setbacks, such as workers not showing up, a mini digger that was too big to get through the side gate and the skip arriving late, they resolved the issues admirably and finished the job on time. I am happy with the result.
