G Force Architectural Conrete
(1 review)
DO NOT USE Paul Gaughan from GForce Architectural Concrete…read more I decided to use GForce following my visits to their other jobs provided by Paul Gaughan and reading the reviews on this site. It was mid-December 2020 when I agreed to proceed following the receipt of a quote from Paul. He asked about colours of concrete and booking a date as he had 15th January open. To do so I needed to pay him 10% deposit upfront which I did. He then asked if he could start work earlier, I agreed and as per payment schedule, a further 40% was paid. Works started on 8th January where the front of my drive was cleared as well as the existing front wall. Hard core rubble had been partially spread. From here on is when delays began to occur, with one excuse after another. Granted that bad weather also affected the timeline which I took into account however whenever there was decent dry weather Paul did not even turn up whilst working on other jobs. Paving work was done at the back of my property and eventually concreting started at the rear patio on 6th March 2021. My recently rendered white walls were left in a terrible state. Paul guaranteed that these would be cleaned once they are jet-washed. Clearly there are visible marks on walls from the colouring used as well as splashed concrete onto the rendered wall. A further 40% payment was demanded immediately and seeing the work progressing I paid. It was not until 24th March that he dropped Kevin (one of his employees) to start building the front wall. This has been partially finished, with the exception of pillars on 5th April. On this same day, Paul calls to demand payment for the wall claiming this was extra work not quoted for. Fortunately, I retained a copy of the quote and our exchanges via Whats App to confirm my version. Paul was trying to extort even more money from me. From then on, he came to collect his tools and equipment and only came to my property once to do some preparation work for less than 2 hours on 20th April 2021. Excuses have ranged from bad weather to staff not wanting to work as well as theft from his unit however it is now 18th June 2021 and despite multiple promises, Paul has not returned to complete the unfinished work. After paying 90% of the money to Paul, I have not see any indication of when he plans to complete the work as well as correct a number of items highlighted on the work done so far. Save yourself the stress/trouble/money I have been going through over the last 7 months and avoid G-Force Architectural Concrete like a plague. I heard so many lies (promises to finish the work, call me later/next day) from Paul that it is hard not to portrait him as anything other than a rogue/cowboy trader. He has forced me to take legal action to recover monies paid in advance (foolish of me to trust him) and employing a reputable contractor to finish the work Paul has left. I have now learnt that he has done exactly the same to other people in Leicester. Trading Standards will be informed of my case as well as other customers Paul has obtain money by deceit.

He listened to our needs explained the options and customised a system that was right for us. He wrote us a quote before he left and followed us up- no chasing required!. All that made him an easy choice. It was a million times easier that dealing with some of the other firms we got to quote for us and didn't cost any more either. But we got all the peace of mind and confidence you need when having major work done in your house. It's rare to come across someone with in depth technical knowledge and customer service skills that give confidence a good job will be done and then actually deliver it with a well trained & experienced team - and that is what we got with Paul Knight. We would definately recommend him if you need a new heating system or other plumbing work done (we had a new combi boiler and new radiators installed).

They resolved my issues with utmost professionalism. Turned up on time, efficient, and the trust worthiness stood out. Their approach of identifying and addressing the root cause to problems is unparalleled to other gas firms, and trust me I've used a fair few! Moving forward, I plan to rely on them for regular boiler servicing etc. Can't recommend them highly enough.

As soon as we went in the staff were friendly , helpful but not to much in your face trying to make a sale. we went out of the shop having got exactly what we needed (laminate flooring) at literally half the price we were expecting as they had some spare bits. We were ready to pay full amount and he stopped us and found some cheaper. I was so impressed with their service and felt like they were there to help me. Would really recommend them, before going to a bigger shop.
