I love my house because it's old and has character, but this is just code for it's a nightmare to…read moremaintain and look after! After two very cold winters, the thought of another one was too much to bare, something had to be done about our drafty front door. The first hurdle was finding a door that was fitting for the house, despite the age of the house we luckily had a standard sized door so I found one on web and had it delivered. The second was finding someone reliable to fit the door. I did what anyone would do and typed - Carpenter E3 - into Google and I found a site called mybuilder.com. This is were I found E5 Carpentry, which I selected based on their great reviews, location in E5 just down the road and detailed website. I emailed my enquiry and I received a quick reply from Calum, whilst he was on holiday! When he was back I received a very reasonable quote and I booked him in to do the job and he was kind enough to squeeze me in on a Saturday. The day for fitting arrived and it was raining. Rain and untreated doors don't go together. After about 20 minutes of wishing the rain to stop we abandoned for the day. Work resumed on bank holiday Monday and the weather was much better (I felt so bad that they gave up their day off!) Calum and Oscar had the patience of saints. The door frame was a nightmare, in short nothing was straight and as one niggle was solved another appeared straight away! They worked tirelessly throughout the day to get the door weatherproof. They kept the work contained and cleared up as they went along. The door was painted the next morning. I was very cheeky and asked if the door frame could be smartened up too and they managed to squeeze in the extra work for me they next day. I'm so pleased with my new door. It's really made the house feel more ours. I will definitely be keeping Calum's number for future work.

I chose Calum to build a new bookshelf and wardrobe and I am so glad I did. He did an amazing job…read more It was a bespoke bookcase design which also involved hinging a door and I was very impressed by the results. It was exactly how I wanted it. He and Oscar worked extremely hard to get both looking perfect. He also came up with some very good ideas of what else I could achieve as new ideas for the house. Would highly recommend them!

Choosing capital bedrooms and kitchens for my newly renovated apartment was the best decision.

The good price-to-quality point is because they are a small, lean outfit based in South London, so they don't have lots of overheads. We got a Scandi style wardrobe installed by them, and a few months on, very impressed with the finish. So why the four stars? There were a few hiccups during the installation process, which took quite some time to sort out, but they were sorted out in the end. So the final outcome was good, but there was some friction during the purchase and installation process.

I was so impressed with the workmanship that when I needed my kitchen re-vamped I called Paul to give me some advice as I have an awkward L shaped room.

Deeply regret we deviated from our clients preferred supplier and provided this company with our…read morebusiness. To start with just to get a refund for returned goods is frustrating with no clear communication or urgency. A few weeks have passed since we first reached out in an attempt to return some unused and untouched stock - 13 lengths of cornices - following surplus based on the company's own quantity recommendation. However we were informed by Mark (the owner) that this was not possible due to space limitations. After our initial conversation with Mark, we attempted to follow up to see if space had become available and another staff member mentioned the company had multiple storage options but when we raised that point with the owner, we were met with: "Whoever you spoke to does not know what they are talking about" and no solution was offered. Despite our willingness to cover restocking and delivery fees as outlined by the company on our previous return, and even offering to store the items until space became available, we have been met consistently with dismissive responses and repeated avoidance of our requests. There has been zero regard for customer satisfaction, environmental responsibility or basic fairness in how this situation should have been handled. We won't be using them again and wouldn't recommend them to others.

Though not getting any business they were very helpful and gave me good advice especially about the stripping substances/how they work. When the decorators put this into practice the results were not as expected because the underlying cornices/roses turned out to be not only multi coats of paint covered but damaged as well. I contacted London Plastercraft again and they sent Andrew out to take a look. Andrew gave further advice but I was feeling less confident about results in the short time I had a available so asked what they could do. Well they couldn't have done more from setting out options (including renew which we decided), helped us select what we wanted, producing it, and, just 8 (Eight) days later, their smart young team installed it so enabling my decorators to maintain schedule. It looks fantastic, I couldn't be more pleased with the company, the team involved (especially Andrew) or the price.

I had a really great experience with Pret A Vivre. We were completing a large renovation project…read morein Highbury and found with only one month until completion that the curtains and blinds to be supplied by our contractor weren't up to the standard that we wanted. I visited the Pret A Vivre show room and really liked everything they had on display. I was introduced to the amazing, helpful, good humored, hard working and knowledgeable Lynda. Lynda really took ownership of the project. She helped me to make selections, gave thoughtful and insightful advice taking into account our objectives and budget, visited the site with me on several occasions and was always available for questions (even after hours or on weekends for urgent issues). Because of our time constraints, the company really pulled out the stops and we had everything done and installed in the short time frame that they had promised. Its not an exaggeration to say that that the look of the flats in our development is significantly enhanced by the Pret A Vivre curtains and blinds. Highly recommended!
