Lodge Restoration

Chris refurbished and repaired our bay window, both wood and stonework, and replaced the old glass with 'slimlite' double glazed units. Our windows now look smart and are also draught-proof and sound insulated. He gave very good advice during our consultation and would quite happily have done as good a job with single glazing if our budget had been tighter (but still cheaper than replacement double glazed windows). We were able to arrange for him to have access whilst we were away on holiday, and as it involved about 8 days' work this was less disruptive for us and worked out well. I would have no hesitation in recommending his work and would definitely use his services again.

Chris did a great job of repairing our window frames. He gave us options on what he could for us without any pressure to commit to the job. His quote was very reasonable - he even charged us less on the day as the job was more straightforward than had initially thought. I would recommend Chris and without doubt use him again.

I would highly recommend his services.

Chris was professional and polite.

Lodge restorations: Chris was an excellent worder. Trustworthy, reliable and very good value for money. I would highly recommend him.

Chris has carried out a few jobs for me over the last 18 months and has always done such a good job that I got him back to renovate my bathroom, alongside my plumber.

He's reliable, very hard working, a total perfectionist and the most friendly and tidy tradesman I've had the pleasure of dealing with. I can't recommend Chris highly enough!

We thoroughly recommend Chris Lodge and Lodge Restoration - for knowledge, expertise and customer service (including swift and careful follow up aftercare).

The work involved (a) designing and building a pair of bookcases to fit into the available space, and (b) reconstituting and redecorating a toilet-area. This work was completed speedily and to a very high standard. In particular, the bookcases look extremely professional and are finished-off to a high level of detail. Similarly, the toilet area was substantially transformed from "bare walls, floor and ceiling" into a well-finished, tiled and decorative space. I was especially pleased with Chris's flexibility and his willingness to discuss the ongoing jobs. He made many useful suggestions and recommendations throughout. He is reliable, inventive, hard-working and trustworthy.

Chris did 2 jobs for us: making and fitting replacement window shutters and cutting down a piece of furniture ( a futon). In both cases he carried out the work to an exceedingly high standard, obviously taking a professional pride in every aspect of his work. He will be be our first port of call for any future work. Very highly recommended.

Excellent service and quality at a reasonable price. I couldn't praise Chris highly enough. Don't go anywhere else for window renovations or joinery.

Christopher did a great job in renovating my windows, replacing what needed replaced and repairing the parts that did not. He took great care and had pride in producing an excellent finish to the job. The estimates he gave were accurate and supported with pictures. He fearlessly worked at height (with safety gear).

I would be very happy to use him again for any joinery task.

Chris was flexible and completely reliable. I had to change dates for the work on my door at the last minute and he went out of his way to accommodate me and complete the work at the earliest opportunity. He did an excellent job and was highly professional in his approach. I will be contacting him again for further work and I would definitely highly recommend him to others.

I have known Chris over many years now and he has completed a variety of work, both for my home and for my day nursery business.
He has always been professional and reliable and has completed a range of work including joinery, paint work, tiling, grouting and re pointing the garden wall with lime mortar.
He has completed all these works to a high standard and been helpful, professional and friendly.

Chris has been working for us for many years, helping to maintain the historic properties that we own. He seems to be able to turn his hand to any challenge we set him and is always reliable and friendly. He takes great pride in his work and always cleans up thoroughly when he’s finished. We also appreciate the fact that he keeps us well-informed during the project.

Chris is extremely professional and friendly and his work is excellent. I have a list of other jobs that he is doing around my flat and I have no doubt that they will be done to a very high standard.

I would recommend him to anyone.

I have used the services of Lodge Restoration on two occasions - once for the restoration of a large bay window and once to have a large wardrobe he designed and built into a bedroom - Chris Lodge on both occasions was personable, reliable and his work could not be faulted - I would happily recommend him.

Concise detailed and fair estimate delivered witching 48 hours of initial visit - job done to the upmost proficiency and cleanliness and within the time specified - great value and a pleasure to employ - will definitely be using lodge - restoration again - can't recommend him highly enough
