Had my main bathroom redesigned and installed. The workmanship throughout was 1st class and all of the tradesmen were hardworking polite and willing to go the extra mile. When a small problem came up Cameron and Jack were quick to react and had it sorted in no time. The price that was quoted was the price invoiced, there were no little extras added on. Would thoroughly recommend C&J Plumbing and heating solutions.

Very good contact with Alan. Very happy to provide advice in regard to window style and colours. Windows was done in 2 days and neat. Only a small issue due to the supplier sending wrong wrong-sized window, but not related to the company - in the meantime, my bathroom window was secured. I will be finishing the rest of my house windows with Alan in the near future and can recommend the company.
