I’ve been going to embellish for a couple of years and love the place. The staff are so friendly. My stylist Sarah is the best stylist I’ve ever had. She is attentive and caring. She listens to how you want and like your hair. She offers good advice about your hair. She is absolutely brilliant. I always love my hair and get exactly what we have discussed and decided on. What a very talented hairdresser she is. I would recommend her to everyone. I’ve sent friends to her and they all feel just like I do. The salon has been newly refurbished and looks absolutely beautiful. All the staff are friendly and attentive. I am offered a drink several times during my visit and Sarah always tells the person making it how I like it so I get a perfect cup of coffee. These little things are important. I always get a wonderful head massage off Sarah as part of my hair wash because she knows how much I love it. If I only want a very slight trim then that is what I get. No taking up to an inch off like other stylists have in the past. Sarah always listens to what is important to me and wants very much to make sure I’m happy with what she has done. Her customers are important to her and she wants them to leave the salon feeling amazing. She takes pride in what she does and always gives her very best to make sure her clients are happy. I highly recommend embellish and definitely recommend Sarah to everyone. A very talented knowledgeable and experienced stylist indeed. I have put some photos on of how beautiful Sarah has made my hair look over the years with different cuts and colours.

I’ve been having my hair done with Dan for years and my hair has never looked better. I tried many other salons in the past and was never fully satisfied with the results. Embellish has such a nice atmosphere and always provides a top quality service. All the staff are so friendly and helpful. Would never go anywhere else.

I’ve been going to The Mill pretty much since it opened for my cut and colour (shout out to Catherine 🤍) and knew that when I got married it was Amie and her team that I wanted for my wedding hair, so much so that she was one of the first suppliers I booked! And she was incredible! We had 8 people to get ready the morning of the wedding and Amie (and Amy who joined her for the morning) had everyone ready ahead of the time we’d been aiming for with the most perfect hair. All the girls said how wonderful she was, and how happy they were with their hair - it didn’t move all day and they all felt so comfortable. I had a trial with Amie a few months before the wedding and on the day she completely perfected what I wanted. Not only that, she also took some incredibly special photos and videos of my first look with my Dad and girls that I’ll cherish forever, and none of us even noticed her taking. In the run up to the wedding, my usual hair stylist, Catherine made sure my colour was perfect - she constantly reviewed the trial photos Amie and I had took to make sure that when my hair was pulled back it’d look exactly how I wanted it to. It felt like the glam squad started months in advance and I loved it! I’d truly recommend Amie and the Mill Hair Studio to anyone xxxx

Amie at The Mill was absolutely brilliant! I booked Amie to do my bridal hair and my four bridesmaids on the morning of our wedding. Amie came to our hotel and from the moment she arrived, we knew we were in great hands. She did a fantastic job on the bridesmaids, tailoring each style to them and making sure they were happy. They are looked amazing and were so happy with their styles on the day (which lasted the full 12 hours!) I couldn’t have been happier with the bridesmaids hair and with mine. I was blown away with the style she managed to create for me. It was perfect and Amie worked so hard across the whole morning to make sure everything was just right. Amie did a fantastic job and can’t thank her enough for making us all feel special on the day.

Amie did the hair for me and my wedding party and she was fantastic from start to finish. I had to rearrange my trial appointment and she was so helpful at fitting me in and making sure that I never felt like an inconvenience. She was so calm and friendly on the morning of the wedding that myself and the rest of the wedding party had an excellent morning getting ready. I would recommend Amie for wedding hair services to anyone in the future!

I've been going to Remedy Rooms for about three years now and I would highly recommend it. The staff are friendly and helpful and always make you feel welcome. I have my hair and nails done and I'm always pleased with the results.

We had a lovely pre wedding pamper yesterday. Staff were lovely and so were all the treatments, manicures and pedicures.

Absolutely fantastic service, so kind and helpful and really listening to what we wanted. Exceptional service. And such a kind person. I am very pleased with our new cupboards, which are custom-made for such uneven walls.

Malcolm replaced all of the internal doors within our property to oak vaneer solid doors. Malcolm sourced the doors for us a fitted them to a high standard. The quality of the work was excellent and Malcolm was extremely friendly and professional throughout. I would highly recommend his company.

Needed some bar stools shortening and Malcolm did a fantastic job, super quick turnaround. Talked me through it and advised on the best way with his 47 years experience! Always a bonus when the bloke is as nice a fella as Malcolm! I'll 100% be back with any carpentry needs I might have

Rating: 5 / 5

Thanks Malcolm for planing our heavy duty doors so they can now close properly, the doors are so heavy that it’s not an easy job, and we really appreciated you being able to fit us in so quickly!

I've been a regular customer for some time now and always leave the salon happy. Keeley is a real magician in hair colouring and the results are better than I've dreamt about! Hair treatments are also very nourishing and the hair look silky and shiny for a couple of months afterwards.

Was really nervous to have my hair coloured again as I had a bad experience at a different local salon a few weeks prior. I had a consultation with Sarah who listened to what I wanted and explained thoroughly what could reasonably be achieved and what the process would be. I can’t believe how beautiful the colour correction turned out and couldn’t be happier. They were all so kind and lovely to chat to as well. I will be returning 😊

I cannot speak highly enough of MD Hair! The staff are all amazing, they’re all so friendly and welcoming and really can’t do enough to make you feel at home and well looked after. They’re all so knowledgable and passionate about everything that they do. They go into great depth, explaining which colours would best suit your completion and eye colour and which cut would best suit and emphasise your best features. Michelle does my hair and I’m always so happy when I leave and feeling my absolute best. I’ve now been going to MD for over 2 years and I can honestly say I would never go anywhere else, they really are the best! I can’t recommend them highly enough!

This is my 4th visit to this salon and I will continue to return for all of my hair care needs. Was at the mercy of Sarah to change up my colour from just boring brown. Trusted her implicitly to fulfill my half cocked idea and she more than came through. Advised on colour that would look nice with my skin tones and took care of my hair's health rather than just frying it and doing what I'd originally asked. Took her time and used her master colorist skills to create hair I more than love. Love love love my hair!!! Will be back in December 😊

Chris recently fitted an alcove cabinet and shelving which we're delighted with. He was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

We have had a brilliant experience with Davidson Bespoke Joinery. Right from the start Jake has been great to work with. He put much more thought into the design than anybody else did and we really felt like he cared about getting the best finished product. It was an unusual space, under the slope of a roof in our loft conversion, but Jake managed to get the finished wardrobes to look like they really belonged there. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and we have already arranged to have some more work done in the spring.

I approached Jake just over a year ago with the idea of having a bespoke kitchen. I was already impressed with work I had seen in other homes but the design process, ideas and attention to detail during fitting exceeded expectations. I love my new kitchen space and it’s admired by so many people. I have since added pieces to other areas in the house, which are equally impressive. The level of service and craftsmanship provided by Jake and Jensen is exceptional and I cannot recommend highly enough!

I had the pleasure of Davidson Bespoke Joinery fitting my new wardrobes, and I can't recommend them highly enough! Jake and his team fitted some stunning wardrobes in a beautiful duck egg colour, with his exceptional craftsmanship. He also upgraded my drawer boxes to solid oak free of charge. Jake and his mainly complete their projects in Sheffield, Dronfield, or Chesterfield, but he also covers the surrounding regions, making his services accessible to a wide range of clients. His attention to detail, professionalism, and dedication to delivering high-quality results are truly impressive. Thank you, Jake and his team, for your outstanding work my bedroom has been completely transformed and I would definitely use the service again!

Found Jake’s company via Facebook, along with a couple of other firms & also one of the “big boys”. Jake & Jensen came round to help plan our project and give us a quote. Not surprisingly, as a bespoke project, they weren’t the cheapest but we felt happy we would get value for money. That proved to be the case and we were delighted with the final result. We added extra bits to our requirements but Jake was flexible enough to accommodate our requests. We can highly recommend Davidson Bespoke Joinery for the final product and their customer service, along with his contacts who did some electrical work for us,at the same time.

Would definitely recommend M&M (Manoj, Evan & Clare ) to anyone who needs a garden makeover. We were consulted on every decision , advised on cost and delivery of materials . The team worked in all conditions and have completely changed our back garden , couldn't be happier with the finish .

Manoj and the team were friendly, efficient and competitively priced. Very helpful and immaculate work

Rating: 5 / 5

Manoj and his team are trustworthy, kind and professional. Communication was great, the workmen (and women!) were lovely and a genuine pleasure to have around. Shout out to Evan who was particularly excellent. They all did a great job on my garden/patio and I would recommend them wholeheartedly. With the amount of dodgy tradespeople about I wouldn't use anyone else - so see you next year guys ;)

Absolutely brilliant service. Manoj and his team started helping us in January with some (much needed!) garden maintenance. We were so impressed with them that we asked if they could build us a new patio. What started as a maintenance visit has turned into a new patio, new path, new steps, revamped rockery, new lawn and reseeded the main lawn. They are brilliant. Shout out to Evan who leads the landscaping side - very knowledgeable and always looking for innovative solution. Manoj has an excellent team, is polite and courteous and a pleasure to have helping us! I could not recommend highly enough. A proper 5 star review.

Friendly, professional & high quality. Would recommend 100%. We started with a request for an attic bannister and has now completed every room in the house inc rebuilding bay window and opening up the kitchen and dining room to laying our garden patios. Fantastic work. !!

We were having problems trying to get quotes for some building work. Several builders turned up and then never provided quotes which is frustrating. Chiltern Joinery Service was recommended to us and Phil turned up on time and provided a detailed quote within a couple of weeks. Phil kept us informed about when he could start as he had lots of work already in the pipeline. When Phil started work we were informed about what was going to happen each day and who was turning up the following day and at what time. Most other builders just turn up when they want and don’t keep you informed so this was great to have a builder who communicates with the customer. Phil had lots of good advice and incorporated extra work without any issues. The work was done to a good standard and a reasonable price. The work was to refurbish 4 cold rooms in a 1920 house and make them more energy efficient by adding lots of insulation etc. We can certainly feel the difference now and a friend with a thermal imaging camera proved that the rooms are much warmer than the other rooms in the house. After that Phil and his team installed fitted bedroom and office furniture. Phil will be visiting in the near future to fix a minor problem with the roof, and we’ll be happy to use Phil’s services in the future for another bedroom, bathroom and kitchen.

Rating: 5 / 5

We would 100% recommend Phil and his team. We couldn’t have asked for a more professional, friendly and dedicated team. The workmanship and attention to detail was spot on. They were punctual and reliable, throughout the 8 month build they didn’t miss a day, working through some horrendous weather conditions, always with a smile! Not only was the workmanship of an excellent quality but they kept the site so tidy and organised which was brilliant. No request was too much and Phil and his team were always more than happy to help. We will certainly be using them for any building work in the future and would like to thank them again for making the build process so enjoyable and creating a fabulous new home for us!

Phil has completed a range of different jobs for us since 2013. Initially we commissioned him to complete a tricky staircase renovation job-his attention to detail and speed were notable. From that point on Phil has completed a loft conversion and most recently an entire house remodel for us. Phil treats every job as if it was his own home and gives valuable suggestions when required. He is an excellent communicator and his son Tom who works with him has become a capable craftsman in his own right. Phil and his team become part of the family when on site and we cannot recommend them highly enough.
