Try Paula at Palace Victorian. She has done a number of jobs for us (I run a construction company) and she is incredibly skilled and a lovely person too! Does everything from very intricate restoration/extension to deep cleans. http://www.palacevictorian.co.uk Good luck! Ed

Very last minute but wanted to see if there are any other Swedish families in the area who would be interested in meeting for a Swedish midsummer picnic this Saturday? We have a 2 year old daughter who is half Swedish and we would love to include her in some midsummer activities. PM if you should be interested.

Just finished a hard but enjoyable day with Fernando clearing our heavily overgrown new garden. He was punctual, good value, a pleasure to be around and helped make a massive difference in just a few hours. I can certainly recommend him and will be calling on him again to continue to improve our garden. Highly recommended.

I'd like to add a strong recommendation for steve and nicola from Back To Wood. We have just finished renovating our house from top to bottom and have found how hard it is to pin tradesmen down to timescales and pricing. On the contrary, Steve and Nicola were bang on schedule and even found time to accommodate the extra changes to the finish we ended up wanting. They involved us in the process, solved issues as they arose, made sure we were happy with the expected finish at every stage, and we have ended up with a result we couldn't be more pleased with. They are tidy, easy to work with and genuinely really nice people who left our house cleaner than when they started...a thoroughly top job and we have no hesitation in recommending them...thanks guys!

Just a quick note to also recommend Alex. He has just finished and fitted a set of new french doors for us, which we wanted to match as closely to an existing old set as possible. He is a friendly guy and a perfectionist who is proud of his work. Probably not the fastest guy around as he seems to be busy, but always has time to talk to you at the workshop and we are pleased with the results at a very resonable price.
