We have had a very happy experience with Mark and his team of Charlotte, Sam, James and Leslie. They very efficiently replaced the whole of the conservatory roof double glazing (half a ton of glass) and left a neat and tidy job well done. They were a pleasure to have in our house. We are now enjoying a significantly warmer conservatory than before.

-

Our timber-frame Amdega conservatory began leaking after nearly 30 years. In the world of uPVC it is not easy to find a reliable local company who have the reputation and experience to re-roof a timber structure…..until we found Mark George and his team (mostly family).We received a competitive quote and helpful advice. We are very pleased with completed work which was carried out tidily and unobtrusively with skill and care. We can strongly recommend Mark and his team.

-

Mark, Charlotte and Sam, did a great job replacing the roof of our 25-year-old conservatory. It had been leaking badly from a poorly designed and built valley gutter, which Mark ingeniously reconfigured, as well as changing the glazing design to improve drainage and eliminate draughts. They started the job as planned and finished the job on time despite some unexpected issues. We would strongly recommend them, one of the best contractors we have ever had.

-

If you want to have your conservatory restored to pristine condition look no further than Mark George Conservatories Ltd. This family firm is not only efficient and reliable but they are also a pleasure to have around your house. Charlotte, Sam and Mark have left our 22 year old conservatory looking better than it did originally. We are really pleased with the whole process and recommend this Company.

Conservatory repair finished to an amazing standard not hard to pay and very clean and tidy. Would highly recommend.

-

You cannot imagine my relief at owning a conservatory that does not leak after 29 years of gushing and drips. Hooray for Team George!I just wanted you all to know how brilliant the conservatory looks. When I agreed to have the plywood blanks left in while the glass was prepared, I could not have imagined that there would be so much difference when they were replaced by the real glass. It is amazing; so much brighter and more beautiful.I really do want to thank you for your team effort during the COVID 19 lockdown. I feel lucky to have had you all beavering away to waterproof and beautify my conservatory.Very frustrating not being able to give you all a big hug.

We are very pleased with the new conservatory. The quality of work is excellent and it has been a pleasure to have members of your family working at our house.

Being of senior years, I was apprehensive of the upheaval of having a new conservatory being built. My doubts were unfounded. Mark, Charlotte and Liam were professional skilled workers, who were extremely hard working, tidy, and very polite. The company have been informative throughout, and very supportive. I now have a beautiful bespoke hardwood conservatory, that I am truly proud of, and would highly recommend them to anyone, Thank you very much.

We cannot express how impressed we were with Mark and his entire team. From the first call the entire team were responsive, flexible and incredibly professional. The quality of workmanship and pride demonstrated is rarely seen. The team were friendly, helpful, tidy and even washed their own cups!!The end result is a high end finish that will last for years and therefore worth every penny spent. Many thanks.

Thanks Mark, Liam and Leslie. I am absolutely delighted with the conservatory. I cannot believe how warm it is, even without heating on a rainy autumn weekend. We spent alot of the weekend in there - having dinner, playing, working and enjoying the view over the garden.

-

I am really pleased with the Orangery. Many thanks to you (Leslie), Mark and Liam for it all.

-

Thank you for doing such a terrific job of replacing our conservatory roof. The work has obviously been done very professionally to a high standard, and it was a pleasure to have you both around while the work was being completed. It looks great and now that we have redecorated the walls and resealed the floor its like having a new conservatory - just in time to withstand the recent storms. What a joy to be watertight again! Thank you also to Leslie for handling the admin side of things so efficiently. We would be very happy to recommend the Mark George Conservatories team.

-

We are absolutely delighted with the work Mark and Liam have done on the conservatory, it exceeded our expectations! We are so glad we found you and that you were able to do the work. Mark and Liam are not only lovely but superstars! I keep on going into the conservatory and admiring it, I’m really happy.

We are very pleased with the professionalism with which the works have been carried out. Very efficient and very tidy which is absolutely great. We are certainly very confident that the conservatory is now in excellent condition for which we thank you. We would not hesitate to recommend your firm to others.

-

Just to say thank you so much for the excellent renovation of our conservatory roof. The new glass, skylight and improved design that Mark suggested has given a new lease of life to our existing 20 year old bespoke timber conservatory. Mark and Liam are true professionals in the craft and we now have a beautiful, weather-tight and warm conservatory which blends sympathetically with the character of our period house. They took so much care to protect our home during the renovations and left it beautifully presented at the end. Mark George Conservatories thoroughly deserve their membership of the Guild of Master Craftsmen. Thank you all very much.

-

Thanks very much. Mark and Liam did a fantastic job - the conservatory looks brilliant and we are delighted with it!

-

Just to say many, many thanks and to let you all know how pleased we are with the excellent workmanship in the renovation of our whole conservatory roof. Mark George, Liam and Charlotte were a real pleasure, professional, efficient, great attention to detail. We are so glad we chose you and would not hesitate to recommend your company.

-

We are delighted with our new conservatory - really excited about it, thank you. Mark, Liam and Charlotte have done a fantastic job and were a pleasure to have around. We would definitely recommend them.

-

Thank you and we couldn't be happier with the work and finish carried out. Your advice and attention to detail were brilliant. Many thanks again.

-

This is just to let you know that we are most delighted with the new roof and, as Mark says, it makes the conservatory a most attractive architectural feature of the house when seen from the end of the garden. Also, it is lovely to see the sky again and hopefully we shall be able to forgo blinds and enjoy the changing sky from the adjoining rooms as well as from inside the conservatory. We shall enjoy sitting there and drinking your very kind gift of champagne. Thank you. Mark and Liam and Charlotte all worked so hard and well to complete the installation of the roof before the rain came on Wednesday and we are grateful to them for all the care taken and for the excellent result. Please convey special thanks to them. The work done by Mark George Conservatories is of a very high standard and the service is first class. Ahmed is delighted too and he is very pleased with the lovely idigbo door and its simple and effective canopy and the double-glazed window for his study. All the work done has upgraded our house as well as making it pleasanter to live in with extra useable space. Lastly, thank you for all the work you have done towards making the installation of the roof glass go smoothly and for the extra work involved in the new door and canopy and the special double-glazing for the study window. We have appreciated being informed of the details so that we can make the right decisions. You and Mark have co-operated over the years to create a first-class company and we wish you success and prosperity in the coming years. With our very best wishes and kindest regards.

-

Thanks a lot for our super conservatory and all the work and professionalism that everyone put in. We love it and we are using it loads. We don’t get wet either!

-

The conservatory looks great - we are thrilled! Plus, lovely people to have around.

-

I am so pleased with the job. It looks like a brand new conservatory. Your team worked exceedingly well and I am only sorry you were inconvenienced by the bad weather in December. I am looking forward to no more leaks.

-

Please pass on our thanks to Mark and Liam, who were both extremely professional, friendly and polite - they were a pleasure to have around. We were most grateful for their help in moving the furniture, which I could not have managed following my operation. We are very pleased with the work.

-

I'm delighted with the conservatory roof and will be recommending you to anyone and everyone.

-

I cannot recommend Mark George conservatories highly enough! From the first meeting with Mark when he came to discuss our requirements to the final day when he and Liam left they were highly professional and courteous at all times. They spent a whole day preparing the area prior to even starting the job to ensure all the worktops etc were safely protected. We are extremely happy with the roof lantern, it has made an amazing difference to the light in our home and would use this company again without hesitation. Many thanks

-

The conservatory roof looks great - many thanks to Mark and his team for their hard work.

-

The work was completed in the nick of time before torrential rain! The roof held up brilliantly in the downpours. We are delighted with the work; the 3 of them were excellent and a pleasure to have around.

-

Many thanks to Mark, Liam and Charlotte for their excellent service and workmanship. It was the most pleasant experience of house works I have had and we’ve had a few! The new roof looks great now we are used to the changes and I am very relieved that we will be rid of the leaks and damp wall. Thank you to all the team and the smiley faces were really appreciated each morning! Thank you for putting up with the dog too!

-

Thanks very much. We are very pleased with the work and the way it was carried out.

We are more than happy with the results of Mark, Liam and Charlotte's work. Whats more they were a pleasure to have around, both professional and friendly....excellent in fact!

I would like to thank Mark and the team very much for an excellent job done extremely professionally.

-

Many thanks to you and the team and please pass on our thanks to Mark. The team worked hard in very hot conditions and our thanks to them all. We are very pleased with the 'new look' of the conservatory roof, a much 'cleaner' design compared to what we had. And watertight too! We look forward to enjoying our 'new' conservatory in the winter as well as in the summer!

-

Thank you and we couldn't be happier with the work and finish carried out. Your advice and attention to detail were brilliant. Many thanks again.

Mark and Liam did a great job replacing the glass on our conservatory. Despite a number of unforeseen problems, they managed to get the job done on time and within the original quote. Thanks.

-

My wife and I are very pleased with the refurbished conservatory roof. We are particularly impressed that it has been possible to retain appearance and features of the original Amdega conservatory. Your husband and his colleague completed the work with great efficiency and the minimum of disturbance.

-

Many thanks to you and Mark for all your time and patience in supplying us with a beautiful Orangery. There were some unforeseen events on the way on my part, but everything was handled professionally and nothing was to much to sort out. We are more than delighted.

-

The service has been great from start to finish. Very easy and Mark and Liam were a pleasure to have here. I will probably hold my breath a little until the next lot of downpours come but I have no reason to believe everything will not be fine. I am looking forward to it not raining into the conservatory going forward :) Thanks again for all of your help. It’s been a hugely prompt and efficient service and I would not hesitate to recommend you.

-

Very Happy - Just Brilliant!! Could not have been better! Many thanks

-

It is almost a year since you built our new conservatory and I just had to contact you to let you know we are so pleased with it. Thank you so much.

-

We are very pleased indeed with the conservatory, which looks great and just like new. So thank you very much Mark and the boys for such an excellent job, and also for leaving everything in such good and clean order.

-

We just wanted to write to say what a fantastic job you’ve done on our conservatory. You were reliable, hard-working, polite and very skilled at the task in hand and believe us, that combination is very rare in firms these days.

-

My wife and I would like to express our gratitude to Mark George Conservatories for the efficient and thoughtful way the repairs to our conservatory were carried out. It is the second time we have used the company and were as pleased this time as we were the first. Leslie the Office Manager was always very pleasant to talk to and kept us fully informed on the details of the itinerary, never leaving us wondering what was happening as is often the case nowadays. Liam was thoughtful and helpful and like Mark was always punctual and very hard working. The result is excellent and we would not hesitate to call upon the company again should we require any work carried out in the future or to recommend them to anyone requiring conservatory construction or repairs.

-

I wish I had known about Mark George Conservatories before. After years of putting up with problems, temporary fixes and patchy service I now have a newly restored conservatory with all work completed very professionally and sooner then I had anticipated. Customer service has been superb throughout and the finished product has also exceeded expectations. Mark and his team were a pleasure to meet and to have working in my home. I wish there were more companies like them – a rare find! Thank you.

-

Mark and his team have been outstanding. Communication was first class from the initial meeting; his attention to detail and desire to complete the job to the highest possible standards makes him head and shoulders above any other contractor we’ve had. Recommended without hesitation.

-

So far so good and the electric roof windows have behaved and remained closed with the rain and not that I’m expecting any, but no leaks either, so another very happy customer! Mark and Liam were great to have working here and I just wish all contractors were as professional and reliable as they’ve been. I’m confident that I won’t be needing to contact you any time soon, so just a big thank you from me to you all for being so good to deal with.

-

We are thrilled with the work which Mark and Liam have done. I must say it has been an absolute pleasure to have Mark & Liam working here for the last week, they have worked so hard with long hours every day which has been most appreciated.

-

Mike & I are both thrilled with the standard of your workmanship. You have all worked extremely hard and tirelessly to ensure a complete transformation of our conservatory, working with a cheery attitude to produce a beautiful finish. We are sure we will be enjoying the fruits of your labour for many years to come. It has been a pleasure meeting you and having you all here.

-

We are very happy with the work you did for us and even had the heavy rain to check that it was waterproof!

-

Clive and I would like to thank you very much for a great job on the conservatory roof, and we cannot believe the difference it has made! The whole process was extremely smooth and thankfully the weather cooperated as well! Our thanks to Mark, Liam and James.

-

Now that you have finished the work, on time, with such skill and professionalism, this part of our house looks like new. It was a pleasure to have Steve, Alan and Liam installing the new roof and vents. The warm weather gave us a chance to open the new vents and reduce midday temperature down to a pleasant heat – so not only will the room be warmer when needed but also the temperature will be much more controllable when necessary.

-

First off, having seen the mess and the appalling state that the roof was in, I was quite frankly astonished by how good it looked when they had finished. I was also most impressed by how careful they were to minimise the mess as they were working and the very clean environment they left behind. Although any form of enforced maintenance to one’s property is hardly something one takes pleasure in, I have to say I am delighted with the work that you did for me. Moreover, I would not hesitate to recommend your services to anybody that needs similar work done. Thanks again.

-

Now that we have had a few sunny days I thought I would write and let you know how pleased we are with the roof vents you designed and fitted to our conservatory. The addition of these has meant that, instead of the sauna like temperatures we experienced before, it is now a pleasant environment enabling us to enjoy the conservatory to the full. Many thanks for a job well done and your high level of customer service.

-

I am extremely pleased with the job and the way it was carried out. I took photographs which I was able to show my wife and she is thrilled with it. I hope in the future my boys will be able to use your services.

-

I am writing to thank you for the truly excellent work you have just completed in replacing the roof of the conservatory here. We have nothing but praise for the quality of the finished timberwork and glazing, and for the splendid way in which Steven and John Paul did the work over a period of five days and left us at the end of it with an immaculate site. We had an inch of rain today but needless to say the conservatory has behaved perfectly and kept every last drop outside.

-

The boys were brilliant and we will be recommending you without hesitation. Thank you.

-

May I just say that Greg and I found it a pleasure to do business with everyone involved and we are really happy with the end result.

-

We have really appreciated your skill and your style of operating

-

Thank you for completing the work so courteously and professionally

-

The finished job has more than met our expectations. The quality of the joinery, the double glazed units and lead work are excellent. What’s more, the team were reliable, professional and generally a pleasure to have around. Thank you for a first class job!

-

Just a quickie to let you know that despite this freezing weather, the work you carried out has been a fantastic success. It is really warm in the conservatory now – this is in marked contrast to last winter (before you did the work) where it couldn’t be used on a cold night like this. Thank you.

-

We rarely come across a team of professionals who live up to their promise so much. Thank you for a superb execution on time, on budget and leaving behind a clean, tidy and welcoming site. It has been a real pleasure dealing with every member of your team. We barely felt your presence during the works. British workmanship and excellence at its best. Congratulations!

-

You did a great job and we are very pleased indeed – would have no hesitation in recommending your company’s workmanship and service.

-

I cannot thank you enough for the beautiful repair to our conservatory. It really looks new built and it’s good to know it will keep out the weather, come what may in future. The porch has also been wonderfully transformed into a solid structure again and beautifully done. May I just say what a pleasure it has been to work with you and your family company. What a tremendous service you provide. Many thanks for all your help and understanding.

-

How impressed I am by the appearance of the new roof vent and by the way your two men went about doing the job. They were charming, careful, clean and tidy and I particularly liked the way they introduced themselves by name when they first arrived.

-

We are loving the roof – the difference in warmth is amazing. I was sceptical about that aspect of it at first but wow, what a difference!

-

We're delighted with the results of last week's labours in the rain. Your design recommendations and execution were excellent. Also hoping not to appear patronising, I was particularly impressed with the care and consideration taken by all three, not only respecting our property during the job but also the professional yet approachable manner you approached and handled Anthea and I, the clients.

-

For the record I have been impressed by the workmanship and attention to detail demonstrated during my conservatory repair. I was kept informed at each stage of the work and I cannot speak too highly of the professionalism of Stephen, Mark and Liam.

-

We just wanted to write to say what a fantastic job you’ve done to our conservatory. You were reliable, hard-working, polite and very skilled at the task in hand and believe us, that combination is very rare in firms these days.
