Peter Cox Avis 2 616

We asked Peter Cox to investigate a recent problem we had with internal damp. After an appointment was made for a survey to be done by a Mr. Gareth Hayward the gentleman himself phoned us to announce his arrival. Having duly arrived he impressed us greatly by diagnosing the cause and the solution to our problem.
He also gave some expert advice on how to check for and deal with other problems that he came across in his job, should they ever arise. This is the second occasion we have dealt with Peter Cox and have found them to be very good at their job. The office staff are very polite and the surveyors are really good. We would certainly use them again.

Communication was first rate....no pressure. Workmen were polite,on time, explained the process, worked in a very tidy manner and cleared up all mess before they left.

Joshua Broadbent spent time investigating and discussing the issues with us. We were very pleased by his visit and plan to have any work undertaken by Peter Cox as a result.

Great team both in the office, site survey and installation. Very helpful and accommodating. Installation team cleaned up after them and removed all debris.
Would advise that you cover off all works required and agreed during the site survey so it is recorded.

I would like to thank Peter cox for the work carried out at my property.
Gareth the surveyor explained what needed to be done to cure damp on my halls outer wall.
Paul who removed the horrible black mortar and Mark and his young apprentice Sean who did a wonderful job of plastering my hall, and cleaning up at the end of each day.Also Liam who was at the end of the phone to answer any questions.
I would definitely recommend Peter Cox.

The team worked efficiently to replace the joists and floor boards. Two days were allowed but they only took one. They left the room as they had found it.

We've had Peter Cox do some work in our house since buying in November. The surveyor Rhys has been absolutely incredible with us, explaining everything step by step and always there to answer any questions. Had some work done by Rab and his colleague in the basement, and then the loft and a wall treatment completed by Rhys himself and his colleague Murray. All work has been brilliant, completed on time if not before, and the boys always tidied up after themselves. Good, honest, hard working boys that are a credit to the company, would highly recommend and will be giving Rhys a call when the next job occurs.

Many thanks to Dan who came out to check our damp proof course.

He was efficient & easy to deal with, explaining the test he was carrying out on our walls here at Peddimore.

Keep up the good work, Dan!

I had an inspection of my property on Tuesday 22nd July in SW London. Chris, the surveyor had good people skills and was knowledgeable. However I was appalled that the technician who cut out pieces of the ceiling and looked under the carpet did not ask but took from a cupboard in the hall a hand held brush and dust pan to clear some of the dust and debris from the floor. He should have brought his own and also brought a vacuum cleaner. He left my floor by the door covered in dust and debris. The same with my bedroom, the carpet was covered in debris and the surveyor and technician both watched as I used my own vacuum cleaner to hoover. The bay window ledges were covered in dust and debris and both the technician and surveyor did not pay any attention on clearing the dust and debris they had created. I didn't see any polythene dust sheets or any type of covering for floor or furniture, although I had created space for them and moved furniture out of the way. Your website clearly states:
Our specialists are equipped with floor coverings to protect your home and Hilti dust extraction units to ensure we will leave your property free from dust and debris.
This was not the case last Tuesday.

This is the second time I've used Peter Cox.
On both occasions they have provided an excellent service.
They certainly know what they're doing.
All of those involved from start to finish on all sides of the work - Stefan the surveyor, Murray the technician, Brian the plasterer along with Sarah in the office and Toni her supervisor - were friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and professional.
Couldn't ask for more.
Great job too, on time and all cleared up after completion.
Thanks to you all.

The survey was comprehensive and and the report issued to us in quick order. The quote for the works was clear, with itemised activities priced separately.

The work done (replastering with damp proof course) was expertly done. Justin, the plasterer, arrived on time and was very efficient and polite. He kept us in the loop at all times and minimised the mess. He was really great.

The reason I gave 4 stars was that it was suggested on the website and during the survey that the cost of the survey would be deducted from the cost of the works. However, I was then told upon booking the work that this only applies if all the works are requested (as opposed to only picking some of the items on the quote). The quote did not mention this caveat at all, which is a bit sneaky.

Very happy with the service great communication John who did the work was fantastic and left the house spotless as I was not there I thought he hadn’t been in until I looked a the working aria closely.

Excellent professional members of staff. Friendly service and work done to high standard with minimal inconvience.

Everyone we dealt with was professional and helpful.
Work was done well and as laid out in the proposal.

Phil came this morning. On time and ready to go. Explained all elements of the treatment he was going to do and what chemicals he would be using. Put floor protectors down and was very conscientious. Place was spotless when he left. Gave good clear instructions about “aftercare” and left paperwork explaining the same.
Very pleased. Would definitely recommend

Peter Cox arranged the installation of a roof ventilation fan for my mother. She said the installer was very polite and carried out the installation quickly and cleanly.
The fan cannot be heard. Within a few days of it being fitted mums house already seems to have a fresher atmosphere.

You cannot fault Peter Cox, this is the second time I have used them for my damp proofing work, and the whole experience was amazing! The communication and planning was perfect from both Jaden and Donita. The contractors AJ and Jason, were incredible, turned up on time, really friendly and talked me through the process, I was more than happy to leave them in my house while I went to work, and the whole job was completed perfectly in 2 days. I will be contacting Peter Cox to come back for some more work in due course, and would urge anyone else to use them.

Did not turn up to do the job this morning. No call, so called them. They called the technician, he's in bed I'll and didn't bother to ring them.

I've taken a day off work as I work from home. I don't get paid if I don't work and that's a £500 loss. Whole room is moved around and covered. Now I have to take another day in 2 weeks time. But they can't recompense my loss because they said they didn't know!

Absolute disgrace.

Job survey on time very helpful.
Quotation next day email.
The young man that installed the new DPC was very professional.
Only had one issue accounts were too abrupt at the time of the call looking for payment. I was on a track machine & did not have the time to talk. She could do with slowing down a little & understand its not all about her ticking the box on that phone call in fact if it was not for my secretary I would have cancelled. Some one else phoned & they sorted it out between them the job was done next day. 10 out of 10 to the young man.
