They arrived on time prompt, worked over time when required were friendly, the staff seemed happy just to be there working. Finished everything perfectly, I got paid and paid them for the interior painting job, they even left me some touch up paint for later on. Mike was professional and helpul and it reminded me of back in the day when a handshake was all it took, good honest communicator I highly recommend for honesty and a job well done.

No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.
In New Zealand, restricted building work must be carried out or supervised by a Licensed Building Practitioner, and all electrical, plumbing, gasfitting and drainlaying by a licensed tradesperson (EWRB for electricians, PGDB for plumbers and gasfitters). Check the public register before you hire.
For residential building work of $30,000 or more you are legally entitled to a written contract and a disclosure statement setting out the tradesperson's skills, licences and insurance. Ask for both before work starts.
Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
