Gleeson Carpentry

We used Gleeson Carpentry to change the bannisters on our staircase, as well as some other changes and fixing the many squeaking steps. We have now also used James and Liam to install some velux roof windows, and to fix the floor joists in our shower room to stop the shower leaking. We are very pleased with the quality of the work delivered for all 3 pieces of work. James and Liam are very friendly, but also professional, and have done 3 great jobs for us, and used their knowledge and enthusiasm to help us make some decisions when we weren't totally sure about what we wanted. We have already recommended them to our neighbour, who has booked them because of the great job they has done for us, and are looking to use them for another job we have coming up. I have nothing negative to say about James and Liam from the first contact through to completion, and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Services: Paint indoors, Installation

James and Liam did literally half a job. They were hired to fit eight new doors and trim down 5 cupboard doors. They fitted four of the doors and then told us they were harder to fit than they first thought, and charged us an additional 10 per door on top of what they had originally quoted. Prior to this they didnt even bother coming round to quote for the job in person, trying to blame it on COVID-19 restrictions (yet they were strangely able to do some of the work a few weeks later). I chased James to see when they were coming back to finish the job and then Liam (the brother) told me via text message they couldnt finish it for personal reasons. On the phone after this to find out why, they simply said theres more to life than four doors. They have also left us with a poorly fitted bathroom door lock. Liam tried blaming this on the lock itself, however we had another one of these locks fitted by someone else and had no problems with it. This is an incredibly unprofessional company and I would not recommend them to anyone. Lesson learnt is do not pay before the whole job is completed and do not employ someone that isnt willing to come round to quote.
