We would like to say how pleased we are with the Oak and Glass Staircase fitted by Abbott-Wade.
From the offset, the company was thorough and efficient. The three man team who fitted the staircase were very friendly and professional. They worked well together, did a very good job with very little inconvenience to ourselves. They cleared away all mess and left the staircase looking stunning.
Thank you very much to Lee and his lads.
