“Bow Tie was a pleasure to work with. I think we were very luck to find them. They gave me a very high level of confidence that all technical aspects were within their control and they knew what they were doing. This was a technical project and it was important for us to be comfortable on those matters. At the other end of the scale, they paid just as much attention to all the niggly, small decorative matters that become very important towards the end of the build. They were impressive right across the range of skills you have to have to get a project like this done well”.
“Passing our air test the first time is testament to how well Bow Tie do things”
“Hi all, just wanted to say, we are really impressed with your team in Bounds Green, they are doing such a brilliant job, and are a credit to your company.”
“It quickly became clear that Bow Tie want to do a good job, they want their work to be to a high standard, no problem is too small to discuss and identify solutions, they really want to get it right.”
“Rafael demonstrated a great knowledge in respect of building work and was able to draw plans and give advice regarding interior design. He was not only a competent builder but was fully involved in a complete refurbishment job from conception to realisation. The finish result was amazing and is a great demonstration of Rafael’s skills.”
