“Extremely helpful, very clean and tidy, very informative, keep me appraised of everything, I would (and have) recommend to family and friends. I had two separate plumbers as the initial job was a temporary fix and I had the option of a quote from them first before further require work was carried out. The boiler was less than 8yrs old and had been installed badly (that plumber is now retired and so I had no come back) I will use Area Maintenance for other work as I couldn't fault with them at all. From a very happy and satisfied customer”

“Impeccable service from start to finish. Kevin explained what he was going to do and also what he was unable to do for safety reasons. He wore a mask and changed clothes in between tasks. He was courteous and clear in his explanations and fitted in with a timing that suited me. I will not hesitate to use this as my go to company for maintenance and emergencies in the future. Thank you so much.”

“Excellent work by Kevin. Details of work being done carefully explained throughout - including highlighting some faults with work performed by our bathroom fitter some 10 years ago - that came as no surprise to me but it was good to have my long-held suspicions confirmed by a true professional. And freeing the stuck kitchen tap gland was something I could not accomplish and was very grateful that Kevin could. All work completed within one hour and to a high standard. Courteous and friendly with enjoyable discussion and tips throughout. I know who to call next time I have a plumbing problem.”

“Kev from Area Maintenance turned up at the agreed time and completed favourably the work which had been discussed previously. Kev was courteous and friendly and completed some small areas of work that extra to agreed. The charge for the work was exactly the estimate. I might add that Kev also advised of the possible pitfalls e.G possible damage to roof and not being able to colour match the pointing cement. The service from Kev was exemplary and communication with the office excellent.”

“Malcolm did a fantastic job today fixing our kitchen spotlights. When he arrived we only had 1 of 6 working and no idea why. He quickly diagnosed the problem and repaired within an hour, replacing the fittings with new LEDs. He was really friendly, polite and covid secure. I'm quite a nervous person when it comes to having trades people in the house, but honestly I wouldn't hesitate to call Area Maintenance again in the future. Booking was really straightforward and got a courtesy call on the morning to say the electrician was on his way. 5* customer service and repair!”

“What a professional job! Requested the job on the morning, due to a cancellation the work was completed on the afternoon! Tom assessed the work required, explained charging and agreed everything before starting. He kept me informed and discussed requirements throughout. He used a laser to ensure measurements were exact and explained the screws used appropriate to the wall type. He was very precise and organised in his work. There was no mess to clean up and shoe guards worn to protect my flooring. I am extremely happy with the work and won’t hesitate to contact Area Maintenance again.”

The blocked down pipe was removed, cleaned out and Kevin amended the outlet end to minimise any overflow water. Top quality jobs performed with no fuss and full explanations. Thanks Kevin!”

“Really pleased with the work carried out by Kevin. It was a small job to box in very unsightly pipework which we were left with when a new boiler was fitted just prior to lockdown. Although a small job, it was quite awkward and there wasn’t a lot of space for a Kevin to work is in. We are delighted with the outcome and wouldn’t hesitate to use Area Maintenance again or recommend them. Job well done, thank you.”

“The per hour price was advised up front, I thought this was a little expensive but it was classed as a call out and the work was done on a Sunday so its dearer. In my experience this is a very efficient and professional company from call handling to doing the job and the billing. The installation was done quickly and cleanly. Craig was very courteous and followed distancing for the current covid issue. I liked the way card payment was taken at the time and an invoice immediately emailed which confirmed payment had been taken. I would use these guys again.”

“Engineer done an outstanding job of repairing the leak. Not withstanding the fact I rang at 8am and they were here by 10am so very prompt response. He gave me some advice about the shower going in forward in terms of the seal and also a recommendation for a plasterer to repair the lounge ceiling. Worked neatly and professionally wearing overshoes and gloves and explained everything he had done. This is not the first time I have used Area Maintenance and will continue to use them again for jobs as they are so reliable, reasonable cost and as much as possible always manage to visit the same day”
