As long as it looks good when it's first done, they leave a 5-star review and 6 months later when (for example) all the tiles lift because not enough adhesive has been used, they can't go back and change it.

It's a bit like the reviews i see quoted in a tv ad for "pay up front funeral services". How on earth can reviews be left by the people actually paying for it? They won't know if the job was done well!

I've always found word of mouth is a better way of finding someone reliable and good.

I concur 100% Dave. Our modern, transitory, nomadic population is a cash crop for sure!

I’ve just noticed it is annual service month for GAM. I’m split between two houses (Corby Del Sol and ‘Vegas) at the moment, so this will have to wait until after 6 June.

This is just a reminder to myself to order the items and service the motor car as soon as I’m settled in ‘Vegas.
