This was my first ever dental treatment (a wisdom tooth removal), but Noel made me feel very at ease from start to finish. Before beginning the treatment he took the time to explain the whole tooth extraction procedure, and answer my questions. I hardly felt the anaesthetic injections, and the tooth extraction was entirely pain free and over quickly. Noel made sure to outline and give me a brochure on the appropriate aftercare to support the healing, which was followed up with a phone call the next day. I certainly felt like I was in very safe and caring hands would highly trust Noel for any dental treatments in future!

Very professional service from Noel Perkins. I was kept informed of the procedure at all times and the treatment was lengthy but always pain free. Very reassuring Jane the assistant keeping a friendly and calm atmosphere. Very pleased with the results and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Noel to anyone else thinking about implants.

I was having problems with an abscess low down in my gum. I eventually had a tooth removed but the abscess persisted, and I was threatened with the removal of a second tooth. My dentist suggested that the problem needed some specialist treatment and I was referred to Noel Perkins at Green Dental Surgery. Noel examined the abscess area and took x-rays and confirmed that the second tooth would have to be removed in order to thoroughly cleanse and treat the abscess area. There would be a large hole left in the gum where the abscess had been, so bone augmentation would be required before an implant could be fitted. Eighteen months later and the treatment is complete. The abscess has gone, by gum has been restored, and I have a shiny new implant to see! I cannot thank Noel enough. I have been totally impressed with the skill, care and professionalism he has shown throughout the treatment. I had not heard of bone augmentation before, but that was the magic that made the implant treatment work. I would definitely recommend Noel Perkins to carry out this treatment for others who may be considering implant surgery.

I've always had excellent care at Green Dental for several years. The routine has been good, and one lost filling (which hurt) replaced promptly. Most recently I've had a wisdom tooth that was beyond restoration removed by Mr Noel Perkins. This was known to be a difficult extraction and I was worried it would need a trip to hospital. Mr Perkins did this excellently as well as reassuring. Explanation and consent were kind, thorough and understandable. The procedure was time consuming but not painful and the after care reassuring with an uneventful recovery again pretty much pain free. My apprehension about this was needless and all the care excellent.

Noel & his nurse did a great job on taking out my wisdom tooth plus absess 3 weeks ago. I was very worried beforehand, after not having a tooth out for some time. However, Noel & his nurse were both very kind, caring, & patient, & I felt in very safe & capable hands from the start. After explaining everything to me in detail, I had the injections, which were done very carefully, & I didn’t even feel them. Noel kept checking that I was ok, which I found to be very comforting. I was absolutely fine over the next two weeks, when I went back for my final check up. Noel said everything was healing well, which was a great relief to me. I would definitely recommend Noel & his team, to anyone needing any dental surgery. You will be well looked after, & Noel’s enthusiasm & smile shows his confidence in his work, & will brighten your day! Diane S.

Spoke to Mike 3 months before taking the plunge on a solar and battery storage installation. He was really helpful to run through my situation and what installation would best suit my needs. I was cost conscious at first but was put at ease following his quotation that beat all other quotes and included the black solar panels which look very sleek. When I was ready to set a date I paid my deposit and 2 weeks later they turned up on the day they said they would to install. All went well and they were very considerate to take off boots when coming into the house and didn’t hang about getting the job done. I was left with a fully functioning system the same day with the ability to see all from my phone. The equipment they use such as the solar panels and batteries are highly rated online with good warranties so no cheap parts that will fail. After nearly 3 months I can report all is well and they’ve contacted me 3-4 times to ask how the system is functioning, making sure I am happy with the system and also given advice as to what new tariffs are coming out so as best to get my solar paid off. In summary; a great small company that carries out a neat installation with good communication and a great pre care and aftercare service from engineers that care.

So positive was my most recent experience that I am motivated to write only the third online review I've ever left. The other 2 were all in the pursuit of a free sugary cocktail at a grotty hotel bar or such-like. Unfortunately this sweet tooth has landed me with dental trouble on more than one occasion. Fortunately for me, the ever courteous, friendly and professional team at the Bridge dental practice have always been there in my hour of need. They are second to none and I couldn't speak more highly of the whole team with regards to the service my family have had over the past 6 years. My recent appointment mid-pandemic was as excellent as ever, especially in light of all the difficult adjustments they have had to make. Behind the unassuming, clean, family-run feel to the whole place reveals 2 powerhouses of modern dental practice in Heidi and James. It is clear they are as much experts in the art of dentistry as they are in the science. Carlsberg don't do dentists, but if they did, they should model it exactly on the Bridge dental practice Kendal.

Couldn't hope for a nicer dental practice. Really, let's face it no-one likes going to the dentist, but here it's almost a pleasant experience. All the staff are happy and fun, and still attentive and caring. I had a wedding coming up and had 6 weeks left when I decided my teeth seriously needed sorting. They managed to get me in for a total of 8 appointments and with a week to go I was done, happy with a decent smile again. They went well beyond the call for me. Thanks to the dentists and staff... You will get wedding photos soon.

I had a problem with my solar panels which I inherited from a previous owner. The pay in tariff was less each year so Jack from Coastal Energy came and fixed the problem by installing and enphase system.. He as such a nice person and talked me through each step of his work. The result was only 3 panels were working and now all 16 are. Awesome service.

If you get the chance take your time to locate this wonderful historic venue tucked away down a ginel off Stramonsgate in heart of Kendal. If you do then, like us during our recent visit, you'll be glad you did. The Joshua Tree is a small family run Café & Bistro nestled in one of Kendals oldest Yards in a historic 16th century building. Here we found a warm welcome, great service and some lovely food at an affordable price. The produce is locally sourced and freshly prepared by the team in the upstairs, small and open kitchen area. The menu is unpretentious but with a great selection of what I would call traditional British fare. The homemade soup of the day was delicious, the vegetarian quiche delightful and the chicken, leek and mushoom pie superb. All served by pleasant and efficient, but not intrusive, staff in a wonderful quirky setting. The low ceilings, nice wood burning stove, and open wooden staircase leading to the upstaurs dining area all help to make this a nice venue for us to enjoy a lovely lunch.

We had the Christmas Menu and wow it did not disappoint. I’m not a big eater but the proportions of food was just right . Lovely tender succulent turkey, plenty of roasties, and four different veg accompanied by stuffing gravy and pigs in blanket. We have been to Joshua Tree quite a few times and it never disappoints. All the staff are lovely and very friendly. If you get the chance please make the effort to go it is definitely worth a visit

After many embarrasing years with my situation I looked around and decided on Crossbank Dental Care. My painless treatment including implants has been first class and given me improved confidence and my self esteem back. A visit to Crossbank is always a welcoming, friendly and caring experience. Dr Neil Cooper and all his staff are an amazing practice. I can only simply say thank you.

Went for a check up and clean with Helen. She was professional, warm and friendly and spend some time discussing my plan and my needs, even suggesting that I lower the band/ monthly cost as I don’t need as much as I’m paying for. When does that ever happen?! She done a fabulous clean and I dazzled everyone I met with my new found confidence in my smile. Thank you, Helen and Crossbank. Wonderful team.

I'm never been nervous going to the dentist for treatment but for some reason this time I was. Jamal quickly put me at ease. Ive had quite a few fillings and hand on heart I can say it was the least painful (in fact pain free) one, I've ever had. Tongue didn't feel the size of a drain pipe (as it usually does) and the anaesthetic wore off fairly quickly. Top service Jamal.

I had an appointment for a couple of fillings yesterday. I was quite worried as one of them was quite close to the nerve, but Jamal was brilliant, I never even saw the needle coming, the whole appointment went well with barely any pain at all and was over much quicker than I was expecting. Donella was great on reception as I went a bit dizzy afterwards, so she went and got me a glucose tablet whilst I took a seat.

From the moment we walked in, the experience was exceptional. Donella, the receptionist, was incredibly warm and welcoming. She went above and beyond by making my kids laugh and feel at ease, even creating fun faces out of rubber gloves to keep them entertained. My 3 and 5-year-old felt completely comfortable and had a blast during their visit. The dentist was also wonderful with them, showing so much patience and care. My children are already asking when they can go back! A fantastic team that really knows how to make dental visits fun and stress-free for little ones. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience with Jake. Highly recommended. Did a partial rewire of our house. Got 2 quotes before him both of which recommended a full rewire of our house which wasn’t needed and would have taken 2-3 weeks. Jake did a full inspection and explained exactly what needed to be done at every point. Very clean and thorough. Kept to dates. Good communication

Jake replaced a faulty inverter, as well as checking and recommending some safety upgrades, which were probably long overdue after 20 years in our property. Jake was friendly and professional, arrived when he said he would and offered excellent advice - he could easily have tried to recommend additions we would not get the benefit from, but looked at our situation and gave great, honest advice.
