All Trades GB Ltd

After a fire on Christmas Eve, All Trades have been tasked by @Aviva to undertake the works to the property. This company found it right to paint over the soot ladened walls which hadnt been cleaned whilst all damaged furniture was still in the property and hadnt been removed. The have also as of todays date 10/3/23, installed 80% of the new kitchen with soot still on the walls and a wall that has partially been removed and not re-plastered exposing burnt insulation. The boiler has been housed in a new cupboard and has never been cleaned which is a worry and the wall behind the boiler has been blocked off and now cannot be cleaned. I have since tried to speak to a person that is in charge of All Trades and I have been told that they are either in a meeting or they are out to lunch. I have no faith whatsoever that the job will be completed to a high /safe standard and I am extremely worried that because the job isnt being project managed that safety isnt a priority!

I read some reviews which put me off using this company (aviva ins claim). But I could not be any happier with the work done by Ken the joiner who did an excellent job on relaying floor, skirting boards and decorator Andy who also did a fabulous job. Thank you

We had Martin from All Trades GB Ltd, who stripped out the damaged ceiling in the kitchen from long term Bathroom leak, and removed floor tiles. He did this quickly and skillfully and left every where as clean as when he arrived. I look forward to his return after drying out machine and assessor has given the go ahead for plastering, decorating, and flooring to complete our Kitchen.

They are currently in the process of very slowly wrecking my home, courtesy of Aviva insurance. At every stage the work has been planned and executed incompetently. When they arrived on day one I wasn't there, so rather than phoning to ask where I was, they started demolishing the wall of my house without properly bracing it. This resulted in cracking in the walls in the room above which they have still not accepted responsibility for. I am only grateful the damage wasn't much worse. They then took the radiator off the wall, damaging the pipework in the process, which resulted in my central heating being rendered out of order, which they have made no serious effort to rectify. I still have no heating. It is late November, two months after they started work. This damage also resulted in water soaking into the joists below the radiator, which they have done nothing about. They then rebuilt the wall without the necessary insulating material which resulted a huge amount of mould which meant they had to tear the plaster off the wall and start again. They then decided that finishing around my front door was too complicated for them so they boxed it in with 6 inch wide pine planks. They also replastered an upstairs wall without bothering to take the radiator off the wall, with predictable results. They latest thing they have done is started laying the laminate flooring on the ground floor, which is supposed to run through the whole of the ground floor with no thresholds, but they have cut the boards at the door, necessitating a threshold and defeating the object of running the flooring throughout the ground floor. Oh, and they got paint all over the radiator that they had just fitted (into a non-working system). In other words, as I said, every single stage of the project, at seemingly every level, has been marred by incompetence. But, hey, I'm sure they're cheap!
