Rob has been my go to electrician for a few years. He installed the lights on my decking and around my hot tub. Recently I ordered a new fridge/freezer and the company refused to deliver because my old fridge was hard wired. (I had paid for installation and the removal of my old fridge). Rob quickly came to my rescue and fitted a new socket. However I also needed a shelf above the fridge removed because my new fridge/freezer is taller. It was a nightmare to remove! The kitchen fitters made too much of a good job! However Rob went above and beyond and used his tools and expertise to remove the shelf. I’m so happy with Rob’s service. He’s a friendly local and I highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Recently employed Rob to wire up an antique Victorial garden lamp post. It was a tricky install, but he knew just how to approach the issues and did a quality job using some components I didn't even know existed! Genuine and professional, would definitely re-use Rob without any hesitation.

It’s a real pleasure to write a review for Rob & the work he has completed at our new home. Rob has worked with us from the beginning of our project & has been on hand throughout. Rob started by helping us to decide on the best lighting and electrical options for our new home, he brought brilliant ideas & helped to bring our vision to life. We are so grateful to Rob for working easily alongside other trades in our home, having each stage of the project ready for the next trade to take over. We couldn’t be happier with the quality of work & the attention to detail that Rob had delivered. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rob & to work with him again on future projects.

Hooked up a garden light for me. Was on time professional and courteous. Did a great job and was reasonably priced. Would recommend. Thanks

I had to call Andrew from Swithland Electrical Services yesterday (06/08/23) due to an unexpected leak and loss of electric. Andrew was very polite and professional and managed to get my electricity restored (even going above and beyond and fitting me a new light replacement - which I happened to have handy). I was dreading the bill due to it being a Sunday and his attendance at my home for over an hour but I was pleasantly surprised. I would thoroughly recommend them for any electrical service you need and I will not hesitate to contact them again. Thank you again.

Excellent workmanship, did a very tidy job, and good communication when arranging the work too. Andrew is friendly and helpful, a good, honest guy. Thanks.

Andrew provided an amazing service, he was so professional, completed the job quickly and efficiently and at a really reasonable price. I will definitely use Swithland Electrical again, thank you

We'd highly recommend Andrew to anyone. Professional, good quality work. As well as general electrical work, he installed a full security system to our property, including heat seeking cameras, laser beam breakers and an alarm. All work has been superb. Richard.

Great experience with Peacock Dental Spa today ❤️ I was so nervous as it'd been so long since I had seen a dentist - I had nothing to worry about. I'm on my way to loving my smile again :) the whole team were so lovely, big thank you to you all! See you again soon!

I actually found this dentist as a recommendation from someone else. Best dental practice - hands down. I’m not exaggerating, these guys are literally the warmest, most welcoming and friendliest staff team ever. I wanted some cosmetic dental work doing and went to several dental clinics for quotes. Peacock dental spa team really went the extra mile to make me feel welcome and took the time to discuss the options to give me the outcome I wanted to achieve. They have been transparent throughout the whole process. This practice really has a family feel and makes you feel so valued as a customer. 5 stars ✨well deserved. I’m so happy with the work I’ve had done 😄

I highly recommend Peacock Dental Spa not only has my treatment been amazing from start to finish and been left with amazing looking teeth but the staff are amazing!! Natalie who dealt with my enquire to start with is just lovely and approachable helping to plan your dental plan really listening to what you want to achieve with the help of Google to look at celebs you want teeth like and wouldn’t like!! Then there is Katie who is just brilliant and will also do a private Karaoke session whilst she works her magic!! It feels more like a social visit with friends than a dentist appointment!! ☺️

I've had 2 appointments at Peacock Dental Spa so far, and have been incredibly impressed. Every member of staff is so friendly, kind and helpful, and they really take their time to get to know you. Everything has been explained thoroughly, with humour and care, and the options for treatment have been detailed with everything clearly set out, no hidden costs. I have previously had some really shoddy work at another dentist, and Katy explained why what happened happened, whilst being professional and not criticising the previous work - very diplomatic! I feel confident that my teeth are in good hands, and little touches from the eye masks during appointments, right down to the Christmas loo paper, make me so glad I switched to Peacock. Sometimes you have to prioritise yourself and invest in your smile😁

Absolutely brilliant service as I went in for an emergency appointment as I don't like dentists and terrified of them the staff made me at ease and took there time with me only if I could score them 10 out 10 on here. I would, really professional, helpful, kind and caring for anyone's needs. Thank-you great central dentist for your help.

i came here a week ago for an emergency appointment and i had never been to this dentist before. the dentist dr sandhu and his assistant who tended to me were the friendliest and most reassuring people. i was really nervous about a tooth extraction but they made me feel comfortable and the service was excellent. i can’t thank them enough for completely sorting ongoing tooth pain i had

Rating: 5 / 5

Phenomenal service & dentistry. Never have I found staff more helpful than here. Explained every part of what they were doing, went through options with me, extra communicative during the procedure. If you have any fear of dentists, do try Great Central Dental!

Was absolutely amazing. SALIBI I think his name is was great at settling my nerves and has the best hands for the job. Had major tooth extraction with great difficulty as I have hooked roots but he managed to get the whole tooth with no pain or feeling what so ever. Highly recommended for the most vulnerable and nervous of people.

Thanks Dentalist.

I’ve had several appointments at the Dentalist and I’ve had the best experience. Dr Safira has been exceptional, thoroughly examining my teeth (I’ve not been to the dentist in over 3 years due to anxiety) and coming up with a suitable plan together. She has listened to my concerns and I’m very very happy with the experience so far. We are slowly working towards my goals for my teeth and I look forward to my appointments each time. I recently had a Hygiene Treatment appointment and Dr Safira was very understanding and careful with the clean - my mouth hasn’t felt this sparkly in a long time! The location itself is perfect with parking, and the building is clean and spacious - you’d think it was a boujie hotel walking in. The front of house staff are also quick and respectful, always offering a drink on entrance haha Overall a 10/10 experience so far, I’m planning on booking my husband in for treatment too Thank you The Dentalist!

Rating: 5 / 5

The Dentalist have been absolutely fantastic! I went to get Invisalign done so that my teeth would be straight for my wedding 😊 My teeth look amazing now and were beautifully straight for my wedding! I was blown away at how quick and easy the whole process was. The team are great too really friendly and helpful! They have been so nice every time I’ve been in and absolutely amazing service! Ive recommended them to everyone and now my new husband and my mum both go to them too!

I am normally nervous about going to the dentist after not going for some time but from my first appointment I felt reassured, comfortable and listened to. The setting is beautiful and relaxing also. I thought the cost would be outside my affordability but the pricing is transparent and reasonable. I cannot recommend the Dentalist enough. They are friendly and kind and the first rate dental care. They talk you though each step carefully and with compassion. I could not be happier with my care from start to finish and happy with my smile :)

Harry and his team exceeded expectations! Their prompt quoting, swift scheduling for fixing, and meticulous installation of 2 TVs with soundbars, including seamless wire concealment, left me truly impressed. The workmanship and professionalism displayed were exceptional. I highly recommend their services.

Rating: 5 / 5

Harry and his team are so professional and very knowledgeable of all the options available for putting tv on walls. They successfully put my 65inch Samsung and my new Samsung Soundbar on our wall and they also put an old Sony tv above a mantelpiece in another room . Harry and his team were so courteous and nothing was too much trouble . Are they the cheapest ? No Are they the best ? Yes ! Highly recommend

Henry and another chap came to put up our Sky Glass TV. They were on time no messing ans straight on the job. Measured where I wanted it located and advised on the height above the log burner. Very professional and tidied up afterwards. Would highly recommend.

Rating: 5 / 5

Harry did an excellent job mounting my 77 inch G2 flush against the wall with lots of cables completely hidden within the wall. Polite and professional. Would strongly recommend.

Thank you to Dr. Lone for my root canal treatment which he completed this week. I had been anxious about it, but need not have been. Throughout my visits, he was caring, informative and professional. When it came to the two main treatment stages, his calm presence, attentive care and keeping me informed made the whole experience easy; I felt relaxed throughout. My experience at Forest Road Dental Practice has been a pleasure since I joined over two years ago. The staff are friendly, caring, warm and professional, and have provided me a high standard of care and treatments. It is always lovely to come for my check-ups with Ray. I couldn't have found a more wonderful practice to come to.

Rating: 5 / 5

Just had my first check up here and was looked after so well by all the staff. Being nervous has meant I'd do anything to stay away from visiting the dentist but having come here I've realised this is dentistry how it should be. The service was professional, all options were discussed and I left feeling reassured that I was in good hands. The waiting room is really cosy and they've got a great selection of magazines to pass time by, although I didn't have enough time to read much as I was called through shortly after arriving! Would highly recommend Would give them 11/10 if I could

I came to the Forest Road dental practice today for an emergency appointment referred by NHS 111. I was misleadingly informed that this was an NHS referrals clinic but I am so pleased I made an appointment anyway. I have had a few unpleasant experiences at dentists in the past but Dr Ray and his lovely dental nurse were amazing. He clearly explained the issue I had, there was no pressure to go ahead with any procedures, and I left with a renewed confidence in dentists. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming and the whole atmosphere is warm and relaxing. I am now signing on as a patient and will be taking advantage of their dental plan.

Great practice, very reliable and professional. Offered a great and professional service. Would highly recommend.

I was referred to Gorse Covert for an extraction. I am very anxious about the dentist and immediately the receptionist made me feel calmer. She was friendly and professional. The dental nurse who was in with me was so lovely. It was her first day and she made me feel comfortable didn’t rush me after and checked I was ok. Very impressed. The extraction itself went well the dentist was informative and made me feel at ease. A really positive experience Thankyou all.

Rating: 5 / 5

I was petrified of the dentist when I first walked into this practice, and had neglected my oral hygiene for years because of it. Gorse have not only helped me feel safe, comfortable and confident going to the dentist, but turned me into a good little brusher too. I travel down from Sheffield for this practice and have no qualms about it and won’t be looking to relocate closer, the service from the team is too good.

Rating: 5 / 5

My own dentist can't do more difficult extractions so I've been referred to Gorse three times now. Each time they've been very friendly and informative, and each extraction has gone off without a problem. I have to travel a bit to get there from my referrals but it's been worth it for the service!

Tommy was really helpful right from the first conversation. Loads of great advice on picking the right shower and was able to come and fit in not much time at all. Where there was complications they seemed to be no trouble at all. Really happy with the work once complete. Will be the first person we call nex time we have a job needs doing.

Rating: 5 / 5

Tom was fantastic. Came over to fix my kitchen mixer taps, which had been broken for quite some time now - not funny trying to turn the hot tap on with a pair of pliers every time, just because the handle dropped off and would not stay on anymore! Whilst he was here, I managed to get him to tackle another job that been left for far too long - the shower unit. He couldn't have been more helpful, punctual and efficient at sorting these two jobs out for me. I am so happy that he could do these so quickly for me. Five out of five stars - very impressed.

Called in the middle of the night because of a heavy hissing sound coming from my kitchen water pipes, came that night and quickly diagnosed the problem which was a nasty mains water pipe leak. We agreed on the cost and proceeded with repairs the next day. Great quality work and will definitely be calling again if I ever need any plumbing work done.

Tommy managed to install a washing machine very quick after the move to our new house with short notice. Very easy interaction and job done ✅. Fair price with great quality. Definitely recommend.
