I can't fault Able Cable at all. I've used them a couple of times now to add new sockets in the lounge (a double straight to the fuse board & a single socket spliced off existing sockets), centre the lights in the main bedroom and office upstairs, change a tired pendant light to a new LED strip and make a light switch safe to be changed to a chrome switch. I wouldn't look to hire anyone else at this point and I'm looking forward to hiring them again after my holiday to fit an extractor fan, centre some more lights and fit an external light. Cannot recommend these guys enough - very friendly, very efficient, tidied up some complicated wiring & gave me a bit of advice regarding filler for the ceilings and around the new socket.

Had a issue with my electricity this morning. My wife who is wheelchair bound.Able cable electricians Phone them this morning spoke to a very helpful lady. Who talked me through how to reset my fuse board. It worked so up and running again. I know some companies would have changed a call out fee. So I would just like to say thank you to the company and the lady I spoke with.

Am very happy that Able Cable found time to do this job for us. These guys are amazing. The booking is easy. Timely arrival of the professional. Been given a lot of recommendations and safety tips. Received the very clear listed quotation the next day. After ordering the works they came in time and worked hard for 2 days from morning until late in the afternoon. They did everything that was ordered. After they finished when I had questions Roo was very kind and answered my questions, walked with me from room to room and showed and explained what they did and how it all works or how is it all connected and why. Nice work. Thank you very much!

Wonderful service from Able Cable! Early this year had ring doorbell wired installed. Jason worked out how to join into old doorbell wiring. He took time doing the job carefully and left me with doorbell functioning well and wiring inside house very much neater than it had ever been.

New Boiler and hot water tank installed. We found The Kent Plumber an excellent company to work with. Stewart is knowledgeable, goes above and beyond, to make sure every part of your heating and hot water system is fully functional. Faults on the old system rectified. Competitively priced as well.

Brilliant Plumber - very knowledgeable and at a good price. Had a airlock in the pipe, he came out next day and traced the problem to the source and fixed it.

We had a wonderful experience with Stewart at the Kent plumber. Stewart is a knowledgeable & professional multi trader who completely redesigned three rooms in my house, being, my en suit bathroom, main house bathroom and downstairs cloakroom. This included taking all three rooms back to bare brick and starting again. From start to finish we felt that he really understood what we wanted in our designs, he was helpful and full of tips and suggestions, for example, I had never thought about having a bath with no taps! and nothing was too much trouble. All major work was completed to an exceptionally high standard. He is friendly, reliable, trustworthy and fairly priced. We will definitely be recommending Stewart at thekentplumber and hopefully will be using them when we get round to our kitchen renovation. Thank you again Stewart and the team.

Absolutely brilliant service. We called them out on Tuesday, they arrived on Wednesday and diagnosed the problem with our shower and fitted a new one on the Thursday. Considering the price of complete showers on their own the price was very reasonable. A good efficient service.

I would highly recommend Diamond Heating and Plumbing. They responded very quickly to my email and promptly arranged a visit to provide a quotation. The quote was competitive and everyone I dealt with was friendly and efficient. The work was completed on time and in a professional and tidy manner. I am very grateful for the good service I received.

This was my first time of using the company. I need a Radiator valve replaced plus a new PRV. Ryan attended and speedily and efficiently did both. He didn't need to drain the system so the price was then adjusted to reflect that. An honest, efficient and trustworthy company that I'd absolutely recommend.

Thank you so much to Kieran from Diamond Heating and Plumbing. When our boiler broke down he came out really quickly to fix it and went above and beyond to get it sorted as quickly as possible for us. Very professional service as always.

I have had a wonderful experience although I nearly gave up in the first week as I’d had a tooth removed and the invisaligners were so sore, BUT I persevered and I am so pleased I did. 56 weeks later I have a new smile and I am so pleased. Also because I was strict with myself as to how long I had them in over a 24 hour period I didn’t need to have any more news aligners. I would highly recommend Staplehurst Dental Practice too, everyone was very helpful and kind.

I’ve just finished my Invisalign treatment with Dr Einfeldt at Staplehurst Dental Practice and I am so happy with the results! ( pictures below, Whitening still to go tho) From start to finish the whole team at Staplehurst Dental Practice have been fantastic. They have been honest, very friendly and really did made me feel comfortable while I was there. I had finished the initial course but after a consultation they wanted to do a few more tweaks to get my teeth absolutely perfect! It added another 7 more weeks but what a difference! All in all it took only 8 months to get the perfect smile. I had a few Invisalign consultations else where before I started my treatment but Staplehurst dental was by far the best! After seeing Dr Einfeldt, I knew I was in safe hands as I could tell he is a perfectionist. I’m just so glad I went with them! Thank you to you all.

I thoroughly recommend Staplehurst Dental Practice to anyone. Starting with the hygienist appointment (which I have always been afraid to attend due to sensitive teeth). The hygienist totally listened to my concerns and acted accordingly. I will ALWAYS trust the hygienist there and never use another. I then had porcelain veneers fitted on my top four teeth. Again, I was absolutely delighted with the finished product. Throughout my whole experience there I was made to feel comfortable, informed throughout by professional caring individuals. Thank you so very much, you were amazing and I will not be using another dentist. Can't recommend them enough! Melissa

I booked an appointment at the end of July to see Dr Jan Einfeldt as I was suffering from an ongoing abscess which was really painful and needed treatment. Also I was overdue a checkup having moved to the area 18 months previously. Dr Jan was absolutely wonderful as he not only thoroughly checked my teeth, but also x-rayed and scanned them. The result was that the abscess had been draining but the tooth needed attention along with two other teeth up on the same area and next to the problem tooth. He advised that the best long term solution would be to have a cap and a bridge providing that the existing teeth could be saved by being root filled. Obviously that couldn't be guaranteed at this stage but hopefully that would be the preferred outcome. Dr Jan said that if I was happy with his suggestion, which I definitely was, then he would refer me to a specialist dentist who was an expert in root canal treatment. That course of action was taken and my teeth were successfully saved and root canal filled and prepared for Dr Jan to then provide and fit the new bridge and crown. I have done a separate review for Pearl Dental Care and Dr Karim who is based in Sevenoaks and undertook the root canal treatment. I then returned to Dr Jan and again he fully explained the next steps, told me the cost and went on to scan my mouth and to provide all the information required to send to his chosen technician, who would then produce the new bridge. Two weeks later, I returned to have the new bridge fitted and I am absolutely delighted - it is just like having my original teeth back but so much better. The bridge is easy to keep clean and I am thrilled to be able to eat and chew food without discomfort. It has been money very well spent and I would thoroughly recommend Dr Jan and his team to anyone needing to see a dentist. Both he and Dr Karim are absolutely unique and real craftsmen, whilst also being very down to earth and explaining everything very clearly. They are both anxious to help maintain and protect original teeth as far as is possible unlike previous dentists that I have been to who just want to take teeth out and fit implants! My grateful thanks to both these dental practices and these two exceptional men who go above and beyond with their excellent approach and dental care.

TD Robinson installed a new combi-boiler for us, replacing our 30+ year old back boiler. Everything went very so smoothly. The engineers were friendly and very professional. The whole job went well, and everything was kept nice and tidy. I would recommend them to anybody.

Excellent service all round. Reasonably straightforward job I think, but within a couple of hours of my call (it was not an emergency) Jake arrived. He completed the work to an excellent standard and was helpful, friendly and professional. Took the time to explain the work and and answer any questions I had in layman's terms.

Great service with a smile! Staff are lovely and the dentist really took the effort to explain everything they were doing and also their conclusion. Best dentist I've ever been too in over 50+ years!

I had such a lovely experience here. I am having chemo at the moment and was worried about going to the dentist as it’s more prodding and pulling but they were so gentle and lovely. Probably the best experience at a dentist that I have ever had.

I now enjoy going to the dentist and having check-ups, or treatments as the staff are so friendly, helpful and reassuring even when I feel anxious. The staff also always look happy and appear to enjoy working together.

We only stopped for a little refreshment. It's a nice pub, very traditional and comfortable. Nice staff. We did not eat but it looked like good solid pub grub.

We stayed just one night for a wedding at Cooling Castle Barn. Brilliant, convenient transfer by Gav to and from the venue which was, a much appreciated, inclusion in the room rate. Very friendly pub with a fabulous chef who doesn’t stop smiling even when she’s run off her feet. All staff were lovely and obviously dedicated. Nice, clean, spacious room with lots of added extras, again, much appreciated. Evening meal and cooked breakfast were excellent! Would definitely stay again.

We stayed here for a wedding at cooling castle. The team were really lovely and helpful. The lift to and from the venue was an amazing touch. Gav made sure we got back safely and even popped the kettle on. Food was really great! The room was clean and spacious.

Friendly staff and dog friendly in the bar. Went on a Friday evening and it was super busy in both the bar and restaurant so food took a while to come out. It was a little noisy for us but it was great to see a local pub doing well

Peter quoted us on another visit for a boiler service. Provided him the make and model and he knowledgeably stated we would need a specific part replaced due to its age. Peter was spot on, and showed me the removed part partway through the service. If it hadn't been replaced we could have ended up needing a new boiler completely. Fantastic, honest work as always. Will happily have Peter back again in future, thanks.
