The service provided by this firm follows that mantra to the word and provides such a good service. We had some new light and power points fitted in our home and they really took no time at all and cleaned up after themselves. No hidden costs - they just did exactly what they quoted for which is all you want!

The store is not flashy, but that's not necessary here: it's practicality that matters. With really low prices, I think this place would suit the student market or those in short-stay rented accommodation. The products are cheap, but not inferior quality and some of the aforementioned lamps and lights are really nice designs too, so don't feel that because your budget is small you have to settle for poor craftsmanship.

Sam had come with her and offered to set about doing some much needed general cleaning. I was impressed with them both and as we had my daughter's wedding approaching the next week they returned twice more to spring clean, deep clean bathrooms (they really shone afterwards) and make up beds for all our guests. They did a very thorough and excellent job. Following this experience I have decided to keep them on for twice monthly visits to keep everything properly under control. They are hardworking, efficient, and friendly but businesslike- just what I like.

Dan (the owner) is a fantastic and thorough cleaner. He listened to us and our needs and came up with a cleaning plan for the house. A big bonus that was, unlike other cleaners, he was DBS/CRB cleared and insured so we were more than happy to let him key-hold for us. He even offered us a discounted rate as we all study at BIMM, was expecting to pay way more for such a great service! We would definitely recommend him and we'll use him when I tenancy is up for our move-out.

M B I will likely be the bane of my neighbors. They don't break the law or do anything nasty. What…read morethey do is rent out serious PA equipment. After numerous parties with blown amps, or tinny pointless music, we decided to invest in hiring a sound system for our summer parties. These were held in a student shared house I lived in a few years back. We got the number for M B I out of the source and booked in a modest power amp along with 2 PA speakers. I was very surprised when my flatmate came back with Turbo sound speakers and a very tasty looking power amp. The amp comes set in a flight case, so there is no danger of spillages or breaking expensive kit. All the leads for the speakers come in the back of the amp case and are of rugged, professional quality. The speakers are what you would expect from a club and have grips for carrying them on the side and solid metal grills. We never maxed the amp and our parties were certainly not considering that neighbors may be sleeping (ahh, the irresponsibility of my youth!). They have a wide range of small (relatively speaking) to large (serious festival event size) amp + speaker combo's to hire, as well as decks, mixers and visual support, such a smoke machines. They charged us £20 for their hire and we got our rigs from Saturday until Monday morning. You leave credit card details as deposit and will need some ID to rent their gear. Well worth splashing out if you want to have a proper party.

Brand Vaughen Student lettings are an awful company to deal with, from the day one when the girls…read moremoved in they had problems such as no heating and no Wi-Fi emails sent and calls made but it took weeks to get sorted. Within a few weeks damp started to appear in one bedroom and water started to leak through the ceiling of another bedroom to the point they had a bucket catching the water on the bedroom floor. Maintenance calls were logged via the website, email sent and phones calls made but no one replied or turned up for weeks then when a contractor turned up they said they couldn't do it and it was again a number of weeks until a temporary repair was done. By this time the bedrooms were both very damp with mould appearing on the walls and Brand Vaughen would not arrange for this to be cleaned or painted. Then after the girls moved out last term they were charged £700 for deep cleaning and painting of damp walls despite telling Brand Vaughen numerous times it needed to be cleaned and painted due to the leaks in the property. Also when the rent was sent short by mistake for a few hundred pounds all 4 parents that were guarantors when emailed with in 2hours of the mistake pity they couldn't respond this quick to faults and issues being reported. Brand Vaughen Student lettings just want to take the money and do as little as possible to help these youngsters being away from home. STAY AWAY
