Very good job of repairing a concrete floor and laying suitable flooring in a shower room and corridor. Bathroom fittings were removed and put back; doors were refitted to accommodate the new flooring. However the total job took longer than we thought and there was a mis-communication over the date for the work to take place.

Doing our damp-proofing work was always going to be a messy job, but the staff were very well organised and kept mess to a minimum - much less than I'd feared.

The Technician Evan from the Dumfries branch was a credit to you. He limited the mess and particularly dust as far as possible and left the property swept completely clean and tidy ready for the plasterers.

I am really happy with the damp-priofing work completed by Richardson and Starling. It was completed as described and the contractor was exceptionally well organized and very clean tidy despite it being a messy job. I felt that the communication could have been better leading up to completion of the job. I had to chase a few times for a date, appreciate it was around the Christmas period, but a quick email stating closure period over Christmas would have helped, as the work I was getting done was linked to other work and it caused unnecessary minor delays. Overall though I'd recommend them.

Great work from Robin, Jamie and the crew from the Edinburgh Office. Everything was made very easy from the initial call. Meeting Roy for the survey, receiving the quote, agreeing on a start date with George and for work to begin. A few hiccups here and there (mainly on my side) but delighted with the result and that my house no longer smells like a 'damp dog' (as quoted by my daughter). Not forgetting the ladies from the office, Diane and Sandra. Would definitely recommend. Thank you.

We had wet rot in the roof timbers and also needed damp-damaged plaster replacing internally. The company employees were polite and professional, turned up when expected, no loud music, left the site tidy and worked hard. When a problem arose they came back and persisted till it was fixed to our satisfaction. We were left very happy with the result.

Prompt and efficient re-plastering of a interior wall that had been ruined by penetrative damp from a (now solved) leak in the roof. Jamie and Ryan's assessment that the basic structures were unaffected was a welcome reassurance. A year had to elapse for us to be sure there was no more leaking and we were impressed that Richardson and Starling not only coped cheerfully with a few postponements, but also held to their original quote!

I required urgent woodworm treatment in the roof as insulation work couldn’t continue until the issue was resolved. The Aberdeen team were excellent - Jackie in the office was lovely to deal with and responded quickly and positively with my enquiry, making every effort to meet my unreasonable timescales! On the day the team of Robbie Smith and Kieran Greig worked quickly to spray the affected area, leaving everything clean and tidy. Fast and professional service conducted to a high standard.

Good service, prompt attention given. Good attention to detail and helpfulness. More communication might have been a good idea (we were not informed until after the event that a cement membrane was used rather than the chemical membrane). Malcolm MacKenzie who did the survey was very helpful.
