Reviews & ratings
Wooden Staircases
Turned up on time and worked until the job was completed. Any mess cleaned up and taken away.

Bespoke Kitchens
Although a reasonable job all work was based around his timetable rather than ours.

I started to fit the kitchen only to find it was incomplete. On completion of the work Mr Tyrrill did not pay me as promised Mr Tyrrill eventually paid the remainder of my money 11 days after completion of the work which I find completely unacceptable.he has shown a complete lack of integrity and honesty in this matter. I hope people look at my other ratings which clearly give a true reflection of my professionalism and workmanship.Regards Chris

Further to Mr Norvills coments i would completley disagree with what has been said In fact we even paid suppliers direct making it easier. We paid for the work as it went on Mr Norvill even tried to suggest we use one of his colleagues when he'd been offered additional work

It had always been agreed that Mr Tyrrill would pay suppliers. I even allowed him to purchase the missing kitchen units using my account at Howdens which meant he received my full discount. Mr Tyrrill did not "pay for the work as it went on", it was as I had previously mentioned 11 days later.

I was not available to carry out additional work as I had run out of time due to the delays at the start and I had other work commitments. As a courtesy, I gave Mr Tyrrill another contact - trying to be helpful. Regards Chris
Fitted Kitchens
Chris Norvill was an excellent kitchen fitter. He was very professional and did a great job. He turned up on time and we agreed a realistic price. I would highly recommend him and would not hesitate to use him again.
Wooden Doors - Internal
Absolutely delighted with the job Chris did in fitting internal doors to my period property. Really took time in ensuring that the job was done perfectly. Very kindly did a couple of extra jobs for me too. Totally reliable and professional. My neighbour has seen the top job he's done and very keen to use him! Would definitely recommend and use again.
Home Maintenance / Repair
I can't recommend Chris enough. A true tradesman who is very reliable, knowledgeable and hardworking. We needed a custom made cat housing shelter dismantling so that it could be transported and wouldn't have known where to start without him. He just got on with it and in no time at all the job was done. It's a shame that there aren't more tradesmen like Chris. A superb job. Thank you :-)
