(Not quite the happy image I started with...hhhmmmm). After much stroking of chins and 'it'll cost ya' type conversations, finally we met Mike who gave a quote to remove our Liquidambar which was MUCH more competitive. He turned up on the day (though a little later than first suggested) and the team set to felling our massive tree. The stump required a return visit the next day but at no extra charge - so happy all round - apart from the tree. Got tree issues then they're the solution.

We had a terrible experience with the Tile Cleaners…read more The planning, quote and booking all went find, but the trouble began when Adam arrived at 11am instead of the appointed time of 9am. When we booked the job with Hunter I was told (and the quote stated) it would take about three hours, so expected to be able to get back to work in the afternoon. Not so! Adam spent much of the five hours in his van out the front, 'waiting for the drill bit to cool' and 'waiting for the grout to dry'. The job was to re-grout a double shower and re-silicone the bathroom bench. He finished after 3:30pm. Next, Adam wanted me to direct deposit the payment into his account, declaring that the bank account details on the invoice were 'in error'. A call to the Tile Cleaners office clarified that the account number on the invoice was not in error and that I should pay according to the invoice. A few days after the job was done, we noticed that the re-grouting on the base of the shower was rubbing off in places and a section around the drain was missing altogether. It wouldn't be a major issue, except that the colour match between the old grout and the new is significant, and it stands out very clearly. We also noticed that the silicone in the base of the shower (not sure why it's there at all given the shower was meant to be fully re-grouted) was coming away from the wall. Finally, the grouting immediately above the bench was stained and had not been drilled out and replaced before the silicone applied. Unhappy with the quality of the workmanship, we contacted the office by email and were advised by Peiter the technician would be sent to re-do the work. We set about making an appointment for the repairs, and settled on a Saturday morning, several weeks out, so I would not have to take time off work. A call from Peter in the office on the Wednesday prior sought to reschedule the appointment to the Friday, but as I was unavailable the office reluctantly agreed to leave it as scheduled. The following day, I received and email declaring that the appointment could not be kept, and offering a $100 voucher for my next job. Curious, as this was to be a repair under warranty. We scheduled again, for a Saturday morning several weeks out. This time, Adam was a no show! No phone call, no text, just no show. I emailed Peiter in the office to let them know that Adam didn't appear, and that we did not want to re-schedule. Have not heard a thing since! Appalling service. I recommend you don't even think of booking them for your job! Michael, Canberra ACT

He charges $60/hour with a two hour minimum, which I thought was fair. His spatial awareness isn't too much better than mine, and I didn't love the fact that he asked me to move the mattress by myself at one point while he took a call from another client, but I understand that missing a call can mean missing a job. Overall, I would still happily hire Usman again, and would recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable man with a ute.

A complicated series of referrals led me to The Framing Workshop, strange not least for the fact…read morethat the path roamed all over Sydney but brought me to a framer right round the corner. Three things you want from a framer: a good range of materials, some creative advice about how to put a piece together, and an efficient delivery framework. The Framing Workshop came up trumps on all these, even though I was actually after mirrors and not art! This is a business that the proprietor sinks his heart into. It's also in a fab location - in amongst the re-purposed Georges Heights Harbour Trust development, with the added advantage of parking right outside the door, so when you collect up your prized framed pieces, its a cinch to get them into the car.

I walked in off the street, never before having used The Framing Workshop's services. The generosity of community spirit shown by the proprietor, blew me away. I have used Framing Workshop for all of my framing needs since that time. I am delighted to report that, in my experience, Richard's work is of excellent quality. As an added bonus, he is pleasant, prompt and diligent. He also has a keen eye for aesthetics, but is far too polite to judge the customer's taste. He will also recommend less extravagant/expensive options for the customer's consideration. The location of the shop is such that it is always a pleasant diversion to go there. It is so nice to avoid the hassles of finding somewhere to park the car and so peaceful.... Ginta Viliunas

They even noticed a small chip in our dining table and pointed it out - it was already there, not done by them! I'd highly recommend Mike and the team to anyone who cares about quality and speed. Great team. Thanks guys.

This time we had to replace a driveway so decided to make some changes to better fit our changed lifestyle - the old concrete had been here when we bought in 1979. Troy came and measured and we discussed the changes. I wanted a plain coloured slab but strong enough to survive large utes with their extra weight. He provided good advice which I accepted and the quote was in our letterbox the next day and I accepted it. They kept me well informed as I had commitments, as did they. They removed the old driveway in a morning with their BobCat and when they left the place was neat and tidy with the changed layout already dialled in via the screened base. I had to do some stormwater changes under the slab so they gave me a free day to do that. They then came the following day to complete the form work and the pour happened over 2 days because of the complications with the upper portion of the slab. The two pour days were cold, very windy days which made the finishing a lot harder then normal with leaves blowing over the fresh concrete while they were colouring it prior to final finish screed. The final sealing happened ~1 week later to allow the slab to cure before it was sealed to keep out stains and dirt. It was a great job, well executed and painless for us.
