15th Jul 2025

I have a big and heavy console table needs to be moved from ground floor to 1st floor by stairs, it’s a piece of artwork so needs to be treated with extra care, it’s already wrapped and protected so as long as you don’t drop it off it’s gonna be fine, just too heavy I can’t do it safely myself. This Job requires at least 2 strong and skilled men.

Paul and his team are very punctual and precise, very solid work for a very reasonable price! I’d definitely ask him for help next time.
