When we purchased our five bed Victorian town house in Clifton in 2016, it had not been touched for 30+ years and was in need of renovation. Friends recommended we talk to Steve, John and Alex who proved to be an absolute godsend, pulling their network of skilled craftsmen in to transform the house into a comfortable and stylish home.
Works included – roof repairs, new lead work in gullies and the rebuilding of two chimney stacks; removal of two load bearing walls to produce an open plan ground floor and a master bedroom on the upper floor; replacement and repair of sash windows; light-wells created on floors one and two; complete re-plumb with new radiators throughout; major upgrade to electrical wiring; three new bathrooms (master bathroom, wet room and a shower room for guest suite); floor boards and staircase repaired, stripped and oiled throughout the house; a stylish kitchen island and cooker range fitted; shelving, cupboards and wardrobes created to match existing Victorian originals; plus the entire house redecorated to a high standard.
Throughout the renovation I continued to work in Manchester during the week, whilst S was at home alone. At all times the Spruce team were conscientious and extremely careful as they worked through the house in phases to allow us to “live in” as the improvements moved forwards. Their professional approach and wide-ranging experience enabled them to cope with “surprises” and to pull additional expertise into the project when required. As a result we achieved what we wanted without feeling like we had lost control in a potentially very stressful time.
If you value deep property experience, a co-operative approach and a completely trustworthy team – I recommend Spruce for your project.
