Kept me informed. Explained the job in lay person terms. Very clean, neat and tidy when job completed. Honest too - I paid for 1 days work; above job was completed quicker than expected so he did a few extra jobs that needed doing as well. He would be my first contact for future work. Would highly recommend.

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!Delighted with the work Hemal did for me. Replacing two taps, new bathroom extractor fan, new plug socket, repair to internal wall from removal of tv bracket, dishwasher, plumbing & water pressure checks. Responded within minutes of posting the job, gave me good advice, arrived next day, got all the jobs done promptly and to a high standard. Clean, professional, polite, good price. Highly recommend. First time using Rated People, really happy.

Claire

A quick, efficient and friendly set of guys. I had them in to clean and paint my mums fence, and then she asked them to do some jet washing and further painting around the garage. All in all, great value for money. My mum was very happy with the work ethic and outcome. If she’s happy so I was very happy. We’ll definitely be calling them back in at a later date.

Did a good solid job with a creative eye for how to utilise the restricted space to its maximum potential. Price was very reasonable, cheaper than other quotes. Required to resolve a few minor pick ups at the end, but was more than happy to do this within his schedule. Very happy with the finished product.

Excellent work by efficient, knowledgable and capable decorator. Jonathan had a very difficult painting job to do but stuck at it, and we ended up with a beautifully decorated ceiling.

James arrived on time and completed a range of small jobs. Adjusted kitchen cupboards, put up a desk, laid some cushion flooring, put 2 tiles up as a splash back and moved a heavy fire. He was really helpful and nothing was too much trouble. I would recommend BEK property maintenance based on this experience. They were a real help. Thank you.

I am delighted with the work Martyn has done. I wasn't sure exactly what sort of trims I wanted so he brought some samples for me to select from, and even suggested how to finish off the corners of the window reveals. He was prompt, professional and tidy. He saved me money on the tiles as well! I would strongly recommend him, in fact I've asked him to come back and do another little tiling job I have. Thanks Martyn!
