Alex put the lights up in my barbers shop for me. He was fantastic, and the lights look great. Alex is really reliable and reasonably priced. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Linear Electrical are the best tradespeople we’ve ever used. Matt was professional, completely reliable, and incredibly friendly while offering very competitive pricing. We contacted Linear with a few issues which were not straightforward and Matt took the time to take us through all the options and what would be best. Nothing was too much trouble and when the work was done it was to a very high standard, with the area left very tidy. I would recommend Linear Electrical to everyone - fantastic service.

I was organising a murder mystery night with a fish and chip supper. I was directed to using Flo’s Fryer Fish and Chips. I emailed them and they were very easy to talk to and the hire rates were very reasonable. The options they had to cater for were very good. Vegetarian and Vegan! When they arrived they were very friendly. The food was amazing and this one review doesn’t give them justice. I’m actually planning to hire them again for another murder mystery.

We hired Flo's for our wedding breakfast. The price we paid was competitive per head - pretty much a comparable price to cod and chips at a chippy. But this included all of the extras like curry sauce, mushy peas and wooden knives and forks, so it was actually very competitive considering all of these extras. We had a few veggies and vegans who were well catered for, and a few in our party were coeliac, so clinically gluten free and they were well catered for too. The communication before the day was great, and on the day the team were very chirpy and friendly. We had a party of just over 50, and they were able to get everyone served in great time, which was great as it was early February so a tad nippy out! We had numerous people comment that it was the best fish and chips they have ever had, which made us feel good about our wedding breakfast choice as it wasn't a traditional one! The fish wasn't greasy at all, nor were the chips. The portion was good too. Not crazy big, but a good sized portion of fish (or big sausage), and a generous portion of chips. All but the biggest of eaters struggled to finish theirs. They sent a message in that we had a few portions left over, so the big eaters were able to go and get a few extras lol! The van itself looked very hygienic and spotless inside. It was very presentable from the outside too, and it was very clear what options were available to our guests thanks to good signage. Thoroughly recommended. Great service, and very well priced.

WOW. We had Flo's as one of our caterers at our wedding last weekend and the food and service was outstanding. From booking 2 years ago, to communicating up until the day before the wedding, nothing was too much trouble. They catered for all of our guests dietary requirements and even ordered us some extra pickled onion, eggs and gherkins! The food was incredible!! All of our 120 guests loved the food, the fish was so light, piping hot and not greasy at all. Plus the curry sauce was sooo good, proper kick to it! I wouldn't hesitate to book them for any future events! Thank you so much!!

Myself & Robyn would like to give a very heart felt thanks to Flo's Fryer for the absolutely amazing service we received recently at our wedding at Newhaven Fort. The fish & chips were delicious and we can't thank you enough for the vegan option for the bride, she loved the battered mushrooms! The portion sizes were amazing and all of our guest commented on how awesome the food was so again thank you so much, you guys really made our day even more special. We would highly recommend Flo's for your wedding or event. x

This is a fantastic company. We lost power in our home in the early hours of Sunday morning and Clare spent a good couple of hours calling between us and one of their electricians to try and help us resolve the issue. She was diligent, very helpful and gave the impression that nothing was too much trouble. We eventually managed to get the power back on and identified a faulty socket as the culprit. Clare arranged to get an electrician out to us the following day (we were offered a same day option but decided to wait until Monday). The electricians who came to us were polite knowledgeable and quick workers. They completed the repair with minimal fuss and disruption to us and were completely professional throughout. Clare also completed a follow up with regards to payment confirming that our payment had been received which was appreciated. Overall this company are beyond helpful, very professional, reasonably priced and their customer service is excellent. We will definitely be using them again and we cannot recommend them enough.

Darren is his team are a highly professional bunch which carried out their work to high standards and diligence. A consumer unit replacement job turned into then having to add extra 32amp sockets for my HiFi system didnt sway them. They were more than happy to do the wxtra work. I highly recommend them. A big thank you for the quality work.

Great workmanship. I needed an electrician at short notice and Darren from On-X Electrical came to my rescue. If you are looking for a professional that will complete the work exactly as you desire and provide a high level of service, I highly recommend On-X Electrical for the job. I am very happy with Darren’s work and glad to see that there are professionals like him still making our homes safe. All work was completed to a high standard with no mess left behind.

Stopped for a coffee and a bite at this new (to me) cafe in Staplehurst. I was out for a ride on a cold December day, and the warm atmosphere of “Kin” was most welcoming. I had a Black Americano and a Cheese Toastie with Kimchi. The Kimchi is made “in-house” and was very good! The coffee was also a good quality. The cafe was busy when I arrived but I managed to get a seat on one of their comfy sofas. There is street parking (free) immediately outside the cafe or the town shops have a car park just 50 yards away. This was a great find, and I will return!

Recently discovered Kin for their infamous taco night but have then returned for day time coffee and pastries. The whole thing is just the absolute epitome of what a small local business should all be about. Well made drinks, cracking local food but honestly the thing that sets it apart is the phenomenal staff who are kind, friendly and always grateful. I can't recommend it enough for a nice spot for a coffee (although nervous to advertise taco night as I always want to be able to get a seat!)

My Fiancée and I have attended the Friday taco nights twice since they started and it has gone from really good to truly great. It's a lovely relaxed atmosphere, a good cocktail list (I reccomend the Dirty Backyard Caipirinha) and the tacos are brilliant. I like the pork - my partner likes the fish. Would reccomend for groups looking for something more niche than your typical pub grub available in the area. It's a special evening to kick off the weekend.

Rating: 5 / 5

Moving back from uni, the one thing missing in Kent was decent coffee! Kin has exactly that as well as a lovely atmosphere and kind, friendly staff. No extra charges for vegan milk, amazing food and wonderful specialty coffee at an even better price. We come in most days with our dog (who loves his pup cups as much as I love my cappuccinos) :)

Karen and the team worked on a large internal lighting upgrade at our church and completed the job to an extremely high standard, getting in additional equipment needed and being incredibly flexible to get it finished quickly, when the job turned out to be more involved than we had initially realised. It has made such a huge difference to the building. Karen and the team were polite and courteous, they are qualified to the highest levels as needed by the C of E and they provided all supporting documentation immediately on completion of the work. They are very experienced in working with churches.We would not hesitate to use the team in future and would recommend to other churches in the area, as well as residential properties.

Rating: 5 / 5

A fast, efficient and professional service. Well priced. Karen came to survey the job and one of her team of electricians completed the work. I will definitely use this company again and will happily recommend them to friends and family.

Darren visited to carry out some modest work at a residential property, his level of experience was essential in planning out the minor works. He took into account changes that would occur at a later date and he performed the work above my expectation. Thank you.

Brilliant Service by Josh & he's team.. We had a rough idea of how we wanted our bathroom to look, but they made it really come to life, offering great advice and product purchases to really make it exactly how we wanted. Clean, considerate workmanship, and great attention to detail. I can't thank them enough for doing such a great job!

Easy Installation have provided me with an excellent service at a competitive price and a beautiful cloakroom as the end result. Josh was very knowledgeable and helpful with advice on the best toilet for the cloakroom. All work was completed in a very clean and tidy manor. They also replaced my tiled kitchen floor which was a massive job and which i am also delighted with. I can highly recommend Josh and his team at Easy Installations.

Great experience with Josh and his team on fully renovating our bathrooms. Couldn't recommend them more! It was the first time doing any house work for me and I could not be more pleased with the experience. They took care of everything from design, to suggesting and supplying products and doing the work quickly and professionally. Communication was timely and clear, and Josh was always there to answer any questions, so I felt I could really trust him and the team with everything. To start, Josh took measurements and Erin reached out to ask for our vision and delivered designs according to what we expressed after just a couple of days. The quotes we got were more detailed and clear than any other we'd received, including all details about the products we could use, selected by them, but of course also making it very easy to change anything we wanted and give feedback along the way. They were also ready to start work very quickly and we were done with the full redo of our bathroom, cloakroom and shower room in less then a month. Frankie and Lewis, who did most of our work, were diligent, helpful, friendly and minded all the details. The work was done to a very high standard and they even came to do some minor touch-ups we noticed, with no fuss after the work was done.

I recently had easy Installations install silicone in my bathroom, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The installation process was incredibly easy and efficient. Lewis was professional and skilled, ensuring that every corner was sealed perfectly. The silicone itself has a smooth finish and looks great, providing a watertight barrier. Overall, it was a hassle-free experience, and I highly recommend the team for any bathroom sealing needs!

Christian and Vikki really are great, and we would highly recommend them. They replaced our consumer unit and installed a number of lights and sockets for us, both internally and externally. They were quick to respond to our enquiry and come to quote for the work, reworked things to get the work completed for us before Xmas, and sent across the certificate once the work was completed. We'll certainly be using them again whenever we need more electrical work done!

We have been using Christian for all our electrical repairs, installations and certifications for over 5 years now. He is always responsive, on time and 100% reliable as well as being priced very reasonably. His work is always of a high standard. Vikki runs the admin side of the business very efficiently. I would highly recommend Secure Elec. to anyone looking for a local reliable electrician.

Contacted Secure Elec to help fix an electric gate problem. Fast and responsive and just the best quality customer service. A real pleasure to have Christian then come out within hours to diagnose and repair the issue. Gates now working AAA+++. Turns out he tackles electrical problems of all sorts from new installs to repairs. Definitely now on my Go to list of service providers.

Christian was excellent throughout the process of repairing our electric gate. His quote was the best and his workmanship was excellent. He did a brilliant job and I will be recommending him to everyone.
