Critical:Professionalism
Lots of problems after buying new build, caused invariably by dubious workmanship. Directors not good on customer support. Staff below them turn over too quickly. Wouldn't buy from them again.

A genuine family run company with a great ability to get to the nub of it and move forward. Seen real continuous improvement not just lip service as some do.
