I have no hesitations in recommending Jim. He has repaired multiple sash windows for us, all of which have been completed to a high standard and for a very reasonable price. Jim is quick to respond, punctual with his arrival to jobs and very informative when explaining what the issue is. We will be continuing to contact Jim first when we have any further jobs for him

Jim has restored and refurbished numerous sash windows for us. Every sash opens and closes easily. He can even fit draught proofing to old sashes. The joy of opening top and bottom sashes creates ideal air circulation! He is efficient, diligent, helpful and always cleans up. His workmanship is of the highest standard. He is a valuable contact and upon recommendation, acquaintances are equally pleased with his broad carpentry skills.

Jim is a true craftsman with an unbelievable level of knowledge. He restored a Victorian sash window for us, it looks amazing and is incredibly draught-proof. Professional service with great communication and he kept the house tidy whilst working there.
