Dear John and Lorraine,
This is just to let you how pleased I am with the beam restoration. They have come up far better than I had ever hoped. Not only that but also the level of care you took with the restoration itself and the cleaning up afterwards was exemplary and without hesitation I will be recommending you to friends and anybody else for that matter.
Best regards

Dear John & Lorraine,
We just wanted to thank you both for the fantastic job you did on our beams, they not only look as they should but the whole living area now looks brighter & bigger. We wanted to thank you also for the stress free, professional service and the fact that the whole process was so much easier than we expected. A big thank you to Lorraine for such a thorough cleaning down afterwards. We will (and have) be recommending your company to anyone considering this process as not only do you deliver a service that is above and beyond expectation, but your genuine and personable natures instantly allay any concerns that may be involved when undertaking this kind of work.
We wish you all the best in the future and please pop in when you may be passing for a well deserved cup of tea.
Kind Regards

Dear John and Lorraine,
Thanks for a really excellent job with amazing results. Our oak and pine beams look fantastic now that the thick dark brown varnish has been removed as does the stonework. What a transformation! Your preparation before and clean up afterwards was impressive and we need not have worried about the potential mess involved. We are delighted with the way you carried out the job and the results.
Well done and many thanks.

Dear John & Lorraine
Thank you for restoring our beams, the results are superb, better than we had hoped!. Some of the beams were very old and fragile, and you treated these particularly gently, and the surrounding lime plaster was not damaged either. You demonstrated a high level of skill in the delicate use of the sandblaster. The original tool marks remain, and the character of the beams was more apparent with the removal of the heavy brown varnish. The room is now much lighter, as we had hoped. You left the house very clean, and everything was done as promised.We would have no reservations about recommending your work particularly for grade II listed buildings which have stringent regulations, i.e. not damaging the original surfaces.
Thank you

Hi John and Lorraine,
Thank you very much for the photos. I am really pleased with the result and the professional way in which you both worked on this project. As you promised, the mess was minimal and the result excellent, in fact, even better than I hoped! Thank you very much.
I would recommend anyone who has ever thought about getting their beams, or indeed their bricks or stonework cleaned to go ahead.
When the room is totally finished I will send you some photos of the end result.
With kind regards

Hi John and Lorraine,
Thanks for all your hard work last Monday the oak beams and arch look great! I was really impressed by your knowledge and interest, not only in the sandblasting process but also in our project and old buildings in general. It was nice to employ a firm who were punctual, professional and pleasant to have around. I was worried about the mess and dust but you made the whole process as painless as possible and actually left the site cleaner than when you arrived.
I would definitely be happy to recommend you.
Again thanks.

A great job. Everyone had told me what a nightmare sandblasting was… but John and Lorraine were so clean and tidy. Helpful and professional. My oak and elm beams are now fully exposed and look great.
Good to meet you both.
