What Our Clients Say
To Whom it concerns:
I am happy to confirm that I have know David Fenelon for over 2 years and during that time, he has worked for us on many occasions.
He has done a variety of work for example Carpentry including wood-work both external and internal, concreting works including a complete renewal of a driveway, various work in the garden including drainage, kerb laying and fencing.
He has always been reliable especially in arriving at the agreed hour on the agreed day, and equally I consider him most trustworthy and honourable.
Having been advised by somebody checking our house, that there was a bad leak in the living room and kitchen, we called David and he agreed to come and assess the problem and see repairs were going to be needed. Even though it was New Years eve and we are in England, David came out and surveyed the damage and provided us with a quote over the New Year break.
The work was scheduled in and all I can say is that we are extremely pleased with the repairs carried out by David. There were no ‘hidden extras’ in the invoice and we will certainly use David for any future work and would not hesitate to recommend him if you are needing repairs to an existing roof or a new roof construction.
I write this letter in recommendation of David Fenelon as a general contractor. I had the pleasure of working with David on the extension of our house in May 2015. I can recommend him highly and without reservation.
Throughout the course of the renovation, Mr. Fenelon was a consummate professional. When he came to the site to look at the project he was accurate in his initial assessment of the scale and cost of our project.
Our project involved groundworks, foundations, timber frame and roofing construction and tiling installation. Our job was done with care and precision and to the best standard possible.
In addition, he is extremely clean and tidy in the workplace. He and his assistant never left the worksite in disarray and were very punctual and met all promised dates.
There was no wastage of materials and the timeframe stated during the original meeting was met on target which was a huge relief.
David has worked on our house from top to bottom,inside and out. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Axcess for any job no matter how big or small. David is very punctual and consistent. Quotes given are realistic and fair and all work is of a high standard. His recommendations and observations on site have saved us a lot of future problems and euros !.
David worked on our roof April 2017. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough. Job was completed efficiently, on time, within budget ( reasonable quote) and he checked up a month later to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. Very pleasant and extremely helpful also. Top class!
I found David completely professional and tidy, done a brilliant job on our flat roof and chimney. Very punctual and found the price quoted very competitive.
