Richardson & Starling Anmeldelser 

Paul, Norrie and John did an amazing job for us.
They were enthusiastic, hard working and just nice!

Highly recommend Ross and Chris fantastic job from start to finish professionally done and also made sure there wasn’t anything left lying around very tidy. Thanks

Excellent service from Richardson & Starling. Recently had a bathroom renovation completed within 4 days, all done to a very high standard.

From Roddys initial survey to completion of the job we were kept informed all the way through about what was being carried out and the tradesmen were excellent, friendly and very professional. Would like to mention and thank Brian, Jordan and Jamie for the work carried out, we would highly recommend Richardson & Starling.

David A, the plasterer On time, friendly, great job and place left very tidy. He explained what he was going to do and nothing seemed to be a bother. Would recommend him and the company.

Having previously had a not great experience getting damp proofing done, I was super reluctant to have it done again.

Having walls cut out within your house in more than one room at a time is extremely intrusive, you have several tradespeople in your house plumbers joiners plasterers and its messy loud and the dust is awful.

I really was dreading it, however as soon as I opened the door to Norrie and Paul I was instantly made to feel at ease.

Norrie explained what they were going to do and in what timescale and kept that level of communication up with me the entire time they were here.

Both Norrie and Paul were respectful of our property realising to us it is our home , they tidied up behind them as they went to minimise the mess, they even notified us when they were about to drill or use the nail gun so that we could take our dog a walk as he doesnt like the noise.

Both Norrie and Paul were extremely conscientious, ,communicative, neat, tidy and also respectful of our needs over the 5 days they attended.

On top of all this the level of finish on their work was exceptional.
Many other tradespeople could learn from theise guys
I would 100% recommend either of these guys
to do a job.

First class diligent workers from start to finish. First day Thursday David and Daniel never stopped and then storm Eowyn took over. On the Monday John, Arran and Lewis and once again superb. All men very polite and pleasant and explained what was happening. Roddy and Steven made sure our work was carried our to their standards. Left house and pathways very clean. Hats off to all from Richardson and Starling. Grateful thanks to all. Anne & Ian

Billy and david from Ayr … really nice clean explained the very thing before and after ..left house spotless

The boys did a great job very pleased. David, Ross and Chris.

Billy and David (Ayr) carried out woodworm treatment for us. Professional, thorough and tidy tradesmen. Here on time each day and worked away through particularly cold weather! Would highly recommend.

Daniel, Ross and Chris were extremely professional, helpful and informative. We have used Richardson and Starling before and would highly recommend them.

Professional and capable. Important work carried out to a high standard. All members of the team - on site and in the office - were friendly and obliging. Particularly appreciated was their willingness to move furniture in the exceptional health circumstances which prevailed.

Brian, john and lewis completed my bathroom and kitchen wall,Very happy with it they done a fantastic job! Thanks again

Myself and my husband bought a cottage in July this year but before we bought the property we contacted and paid R&S kirkcaldy to do a damp survey, they came back to us with their findings at a cost of £6284.40, which was fair enough so we were able to go back to the sellers and have the sale price reduced by £4000, we paid R&S to do the works they stated needed done, and we were told it would take 3 and a half days, they arrived on the Monday at 8.30 which was great, quicker it's done the better.(or so we thought,)we have 2 dogs so they had to stay at my parents, I returned to the house around 3.30 that day to discover the workmen had gone already and it appeared that very little work had commenced, considering when they arrived at 8.30 they were coming to lift flooring and carpets but myself and my husband had it all done for them so it should have been a case of coming in and getting stuck straight into the rip out and repair of the damp issues, then on the Tuesday, 10.30 they arrived, I again went to my parents, due to work being commenced in our bathroom we were only able to use the toilet so we were having to go to my parents every day for showering, I returned back home about 3 o'clock and once again they were gone, still looked like very little was done in how ever long they were actually here, then came Wednesday, 10.45 and no one, so I contacted the office to be told someone would phone me back, I got a call back within 10 minutes to say that the workmen were on there way, 20 minutes later they arrived, I went to my parents again, returned back home at 2.30 to find the 2 workmen sat in the van on their phones, the work quoted to be fixed was in 4 different areas of our home, bathroom, bedroom, livingroom and loft, we live in a 2 bedroom cottage so we only had use of 1 room and the kitchen, I came in the house and there was hole in our bathroom floor and a massive hole in our livingroom and half the wall removed from the bathroom into the bedroom, (which we kinda oxpected) I went out to the van and tapped the window to get their attention, they came into the house and said they have a problem in the livingroom, the part of the floor they needed to remove and replace had a problem because the gas meter was attached to a part of it and they could not remove all of the rotten floorboards due to this, (were they just going to think I would be happy with this) I contacted the gas board and they sent someone out to lift the gas meter so they could get all the rotten board out and replace them, at the end of the day that's what we were paying for. Also in the bathroom, they got their plumber out to removed the shower and sink, the shower was to be replaced so damaging that was not an issue but the sink was fine but needed to be removed to lift the floorboards, instead of the plumber peeling the silicone off around the sink he just ripped it off the wall therefore broke 4/5 tiles which were still attached to the sink and they broke the kick plate at the bottom of the sink unit so made it unusable, we had to purchase a new sink and unit out our own pocket and we had to rush to get the new sink and unit the next day, instead of replacing the broken tiles they put a bit wet wall over the broken tiles before installing our new sink and which we agreed to, by the end of Thursday most of the work had been done, Friday came and they still had the loft to do (spray with some sort of insecticide)and the plumber had all the plumbing to do in the bathroom, he did a fantastic job, so the 1 star is for him. The 2 workmen that had been here all week started of being nice and friendly but by the end of the week the older one of the 2 because quite obnoxious and patronising because I voiced my dissatisfaction about things that either was or was not getting done and the times they would arrive and leave. His excuse was they were short staffed and have had to be elsewhere as well, I said that this was not our problem, they were scheduled to be at our home on these days so should not be putting my work on hold after it has been started. Since the work had been completed (or so we thought) we started to get the house the way we want it, new flooring painting decorating ect; we stripped all the wallpaper off throughout the whole house, first problem, we got a joiner in to lay the bathroom laminate and he discovered they hadnt sealed or attached the wetwall properly, it bangs on the wall if you push it slightly, they sent someone out and he run a bit silicone down the join and away they went, that was the first pro elm, secondly, apon stripping the wallpaper of throughout the house, we discovered the outer walls were wet and had black damp over them, and on rainy days my husband discovered the water was running down the inside of the loft and into the main house hence the wet and damp walls, we paid a specialist from R&S to check this and clearly was not done properly. There is more to say but no room!

Very professional service. Jack C was efficient, knowledgeable, and took time to explain the issues and the possible options in a way that was easy to understand. The subsequent report was clear and straightforward. 5 stars.

Quick and professional service provided by polite friendly staff. Thank you very much for a very efficient service from Billy and David

Brilliant communication about
the findings and potential solutions by Neil

Jack was friendly and gave great advice for my issue.

I recently moved in to a council property and have had Richard and starling come out and fit a new kitchen , they have plastered walls , from Dundee office team to there workmen I can’t thank them enough with everything they have done. Nothing was to much to ask and everything that needed done was done very promptly and professionally , massive thank you to Wendy at Dundee office for being so helpful and kind in a time of when I needed some reassurance

I telephoned the Edinburgh office of R&S on three occasions over 3 consecutive days (1/10-3/10) following the recommendation of my insurance company. Despite being reassured that the person who arranged appointments would call me back and the subsequent apologies from the person I spoke to, nobody did.
Not very professional.

The plumber Brian and joiner Daniel were friendly and efficient
