“Hi All, just a wee note of appreciation to shout out to Mo and Ross that recently carried out works on my house, Firstly they were very professional in what they did, all HSE Regulations was carried out, signage placed up and correct tools for the job, they were both well mannered and very curtesy, The area was cleaned up to a very high standard when work was completed. The price that was quoted for the job carried was excellent, I was so happy to choose Richardson & Starling because they tailored all my needs from the start to finish and even when making calls to office and in all email correspondence I am very overjoyed. So again would like to say a BIG thanks to all that works with Richardson & Starling for sending out a team representing a company that had very high standards which reflects in my eyes how good a company you are. Kindest regards Clive”

“From start to finish Richardson and Starling (Glasgow team) have been great! Everyone I’ve spoken to has been friendly, willing to answer my questions and respectful of my home. Craig Davidson gave me a clear and transparent indication of what the work would involve. William Frew then came and did a great job, the work he has done is really well finished and he did a very thorough clean up. Very happy to recommend Richardson and Starling to others.”

“What I believed was a Government led scheme to have interior roof examined for damp I agreed to have the survey, was told there was damp present and the cost to have it insulated would be £6000 with a discount if I went ahead within 7 days, I said I needed time to think about it and wait for his report to be emailed (never arrived). Contacted Richardson & Starling as I was now worried about damp Steve did the survey and declared all was well in the loft no signs of damp anywhere. There was no charge for this excellent service. Stupidly I did not take note of the company that carried out the first survey to warn others if they get a phone call, another despicable scam. Thank you Steve for putting my mind a rest. Gold stars all round. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Jamie & Ryan from the Edinburgh branch did a great job with damp proofing and replacing rafters and lintels in my mums house. They were really hard working and even helped my elderly mum with some other tasks she was struggling with. Clarke who did the original survey was also really helpful in providing technical advice on aspects of work that needed to be done by other contractors.”

“R&J (Edinburgh Branch) did a basement tanking operation for us in a very timely and efficient manner. Prior to commencement, Malcolm, the surveyor, always made himself available to answer, sometimes complex, questions by email (usually same day to his enormous credit) which would warrant 5 stars alone. The installers (The “Dream Team”) of Jamie and Ryan also deserve a mention. Senior technician Jamie personally got through a mountain of work on the first day under extremely difficult and challenging conditions to ensure the job was finished well within time. Given the extent of the work the price was highly competitive. I would recommend without hesitation.”

“Highly recommend. From the start with girls in the office in Dumfries, Kris who came out to look and quote and Chris and Greg from Hawick who did a fabulous job. I was dreading the dust the job was going to make but was really pleasantly surprised by how clean and tidy the boys left my house each time they came. Highly recommend this company.”

“I have been a homeowner for many many years, and in many parts of the world. I have met many tradesmen, all of varying character and standard of work. I can honestly say thatEvan, who completed the treatment of the roof at my property yesterday , is in the top 3 for quality of workmanship, perfectionism, engaging personality, honesty and integrity. Access to the job was through a hatch in the bathroom . It’s always immaculate , so I was a bit worried I would have to clean up debris. But the condition Evan left the property in, on completion, was even better than I could have hoped or expected. Delighted !”
