From the moment I contacted this company they have been exceptional. They are effective, efficient and very professional. The job itself was completed really well and the team working in my home were polite, hard working, considerate of my home and belongings. On completion they cleaned thoroughly - it was a very dusty and dirty job so dust is to be expected! I would highly recommend them

I was really pleased with the response time for the work, customer service given by everyone I spoke to and the efficiency of the work carried out. The tradesmen were well organised. They left my house absolutely clear of all the work carried out. Very impressive. I would happily recommend this company to anyone requiring this type of work done. The price was also great and well worth it.

Just had the Cyclone7 extractor fan fitted on advice from Richardson and Starling, replacing my (almost) obsolete fan. This is the latest state-of-the-art technology of extractor fans. The fitters were thoroughly professional, were in and out within 2 hours and tidied and cleaned up at the end. Genuinely delighted with the work. Will have no hesitation in recommending by word of mouth to friends and family.

Craig Davidson A surveyor with Richardson & Starling came to my ground floor flat to investigate internal dampness on our bedroom wall, which after his good advise was fixed. While there Craig went outside and examined the external wall and recommended that the vegetation which was growing against the wall be removed as it could be causing moisture retention on the wall. When we had it removed a down pipe from the gutters, hidden at lower level by the vegetation, was found to be open and soaking the wall. We have had the pipe refitted and the wall is now drying out, thanks to Craig’s advice. Well done Richard Starling.

I had to call Richardson and Starling in an emergency situation after total failure with my 10 year old basement pump system. The initial contact was to Graham Bruce who quickly aligned this to a surveyor who visited within hours. Parts all ordered and fitted by Andy and Josh who did a great job. Andy found another problem with a monitor during the install which again was reordered and replaced. Unfortunately there was a problem with this part so the field rep for Wykamol was contacted and he attended with another part which Andy fitted with no issues. Special thanks to Jackie from the office who was amazing from start to finish.

Really quick to respond to our initial enquiry re. damp in our bedroom wall, coming from faulty grout in adjoining en-suite. Answered all of our questions prior to booking a site visit and quote, even they were probably obvious questions! Excellent communication throughout the job from all staff. Really professional approach to the work; extremely tidy and mindful of surroundings with good finish to the job. Would definitely use again.

I would not hesitate to highly recommend Richardson and Starling. We were in the final process of selling our family home in Alford when a survey carried out by Richardson and Starling found we had extensive wood rot. Because of time constraints the works had to be carried out urgently. From the time we contacted the Aberdeen branch Jackie Hardy, the contracts co-ordinator could not have been more helpful, as not being on site and over 500 miles away was challenging. I put my full trust in Jackie, Steven McLeavy, the surveyor and Grant Heddle, the supervisor on site. At one stage they could have easily downed tools and walked off site, but Steven worked out a way round the problem and the team worked relentlessly, with the joiner Neil Ferries coming in over the weekend to try to meet the extremely tight deadline. Jordon Kennedy and Liam Redwood from Veitchi Flooring were enlisted at very short notice to move the furniture and uplift the carpets. Steven kept me informed and up to date with the works as they progressed and the works were completed within the timescale. I would strongly recommend them and would not hesitate to use them again.
