A few more comments from our customers
Handyperson
Service
"I am writing to say thank you very much for the recent adaptations which were carried out for my parents. The arrangements which were made to assess and carry out the work at a time which was convenient for me to be in Northampton were first class. The sensitivity with which the situation was handled was superb .The work itself was carried out efficiently with hardly any mess, in fact we hardly knew he was there. Thanks once again.
My parents are delighted with the adaptations and though sceptical at first, now realise that they were needed. For my part, I am so pleased and relieved that their home environment is much safer for them.
I would highly recommend your services to other people and I am sure my parents will too."
​
"Thank you very much for building a shelf in our bin cupboard. Previously we were having to stoop down into the cupboard to lift the rubbish bags to get to the recycling boxes.
Since the problem is that I have chronic arthritis, particularly in my spine, I was in great pain having to stoop and lift. The shelf is at an ideal height for me and my wife. Thank you for your help and kindness."
​
"I would like to take this opportunity of thanking you for arranging the repair to my garage door and for all the work done on my behalf.
Care & Repair were such a help to me and it was greatly appreciated. I shall have no hesitation in recommending your services."

"I would like to thank you for the work done. The young man who came to replace my fencing worked so hard. It was more complex than had been expected but he got on with the job. I am absolutely delighted with the finished result and am most grateful to you."
Security works
An example of our Home Security Service is this client who had been the victim of a burglary and again was feeling very vulnerable. Details were referred to us by the Crime Prevention Officer.
We fitted:
> a dusk till dawn solar powered security light to the side of the front door
> a battery powered PIR alarm to both garden shed and the garage
> a deadlock to the front door
> eight battery powered window shock alarms to the downstairs windows
> we repaired a broken fence post to make it secure and
> we fitted some expandable trellis. This provides height and is deliberately flimsy so as to hamper an attempt to climb it.
The client's comment were:
"My very grateful thanks for the excellent job, cheerfully carried out by your workmen. I will be able to sleep now as I feel so much more secure. They have completed a wonderful and helpful service.
Thank you very much.
