Communications were via telephone or email to the coordinator, who was extremely efficient at liaising with everyone.

Don't touch this company with a bargepole! South Yorkshire Housing Association contract out to them for the fitting of windows and doors and they are beyond useless. They were employed to fit a new composite door on my house starting work on 6th July. It's now 11th September and it's still not completed. It was fitted so badly that after a few days it had dropped so much it was jammed and wouldn't open. We had a weekend with no escape from the back of the house. To cut a very long story short, it was then temporarily adjusted, then ripped out and refitted. It's needed adjusting twice since. My
