Extremely disappointed.
Took my money and did not return to complete the job.
Andrea
I recently hired Jake for a bathroom installation, and I am extremely impressed with his work. He arrived on time, before 9 AM, and completed the entire project by 3 PM the same day. Jake was highly professional throughout, ensuring all surrounding areas were protected and leaving no mess behind. The finished product is stunning and exactly as promised. I will definitely hire Jake again for future projects and highly recommend his services to anyone looking for quality work. More...

R G Trades LTD is a first class company. Jake Gibson of that company attended punctually at my home and completed the work required efficiently and with expertise. Jake was courteous, hard working and tided up after his work was completed in an expert manner. I highly recommend this company and will use them again. More...

Would definitely use and Jake and Co again. Both very honest, professional and completed the job quickly. Slight delays due to other commitments, but very transparent about it and communicated very quickly, having no real impact on the job itself and the job got done on the day requested. Recommend them both as they deliver on their promises. More...
Dani
Jakes big van broke down but he still carried out by house move with a smaller van, resulting in him doing around 8 trips in place of two. Much harder work for him and a long day but he didn’t complain. They moved all boxes into the correct rooms for me and also took down and rebuilt my bed. Can’t thank them enough and will use them again. More...

Good professional job and lovely chaps. Would use again. Committed to staying on and completing the job. Would've been 5 stars if we had communicated better on the job/quote which couldve saved a bit of time getting all the materials ready.
Kathy
Jake and colleague did a full days work for my business, putting together the furniture for our kitchen and soft seating area. It was a big job, roughly 65 items, but Jake said he could do it in a day and he was true to his word. They were polite, professional, tidy and just got on with the job at hand. I would definitely recommend them. More...

Jake did an excellent job assembling our wardrobes and bookshelves. He came in early and stayed till the afternoon without any extra cost. Some parts did not fit and he did volunteer to come back to it when I have ordered them. He seems to be a very patient and friendly person. I will definitely be using his services again. More...

MAK
Handyman
I asked Jake to mount a shelf MDF board in a property that I let , reseal a balcony door to reduce heat loss. Additionally Jake claimed he expert in installing CCTV and I trusted him . The tenant later texted me to say they would not let Jake do nay work for them; he was late on three occasions without giving any notice or explanation. Jake got wooden shelf which is fire hazard above the radiator, he did not fix the shelf and lastly he could not set up the CCTV and left it to the tenant to complete the job. I trusted him and paid him £200 but this was partially my fault as the tenant did not tell me about this miss till much later. I gave him 5* for painting but would recommend him to do any bigger job. I am very disappointed for paying him £300 and ending up getting a carpenter and CCTV expert to clear his miss. More...
Reply from RG Trades
Hi mak Firstly I never installed CCTV in your Property, the stuff your saying doesnt make sence. I called you to make sure your happy with the job before you pay me and you said your happy. Also my car broke down on the way to the property and I told the tenant also told you I won’t be able to make it so we rescheduled I don’t know where your getting your facts from as the mdf shelf is thick how can it be a fire hazard? it’s a fire hazard if it gets exposed to 204.c, the tenant said he was happy to, Would appreciate if you can contact me

My wardrobes were bespoke and quote tricky and after a long day Jake managed to get them up just how we wanted them. Pleasure to work with
Samina
Furniture & Flat Pack Assembly
Jake and his brother assembled 4 items of furniture for me and they were extremely professional, friendly and helpful. They worked extremely hard right from the moment they arrived and assembled the furniture extremely fast and to a high standard. Jake even removed all the rubbish/ cardboard boxes and disposed them for me. Jake kept contact and provided updates right from the initial booking and quoted me a fair price. I highly recommend Jake and have already arranged for Jake to come back to fit my lights, curtain rails and blinds. More...
James
Jake is a very good chippy, knows how to do everything for a fair price and does all jobs properly. I recently got my house renovated and I got Jake in to do my kitchen and he done a really good job, after he finished the kitchen he asked me if I wanted help with the rest of the house and he said he can do it all. So I hired Jake to do my bathroom, decorate the house and also he done a loft renovation that looks great. Highly recommend Jake More...
