Can only echo this. Russell has now done a couple of jobs for our house on lordship lane and did a fantastic job both times around. On both occasions has done extra bits for nothing when it was not asked of him and this is much appreciated. His rates have always been competitive as well. He can be booked up a bit in advance but that seems like it is because he has a really good reputation on the forum - we took the view that if you trust someone from previous experience to produce good workmanship then we don't mind waiting a little longer.
