There seems to be no long-term commitments or services from the company but generally nice staff but everybody only a number to them as generally busy place that's hard to reach when calling them & nobody seems to know what's happening unless enquiring persistently about anything.

We moved offices about 18 months ago - an absolutely mammoth task as our business had been in our previous premises for over 150 years! Peter and the team made everything so much easier. They were recommended by colleagues and they did the job to perfection! Happy to recommend them.
