What our clients say

I think the current manager I deal with (Vince) is so adaptable and the best I think I have ever worked with
OVHcloud

Terry Wicks (superstar). Terry has been very helpful over the last week. He popped into Lavington Street each morning to check the system. He made changes to see if we could right the wrong. He explains everything in a language that I understand. In other words, he doesn’t blind you with science. Terry is also a lovely chap and an asset to your team.

Kings College London

If only every single contractor I had come across was so well-organised, kept me updated all times and delivered to such standards, my life would be much easier. It was a last-minute request as another contractor let me down badly and I needed someone to do the works urgently. When I called Artic (Chris Cerisola) I had not much hope you would be able to do the work on such short notice to such high standards. It seems I was wrong, thanks for that.

University of Law

Works were completed swiftly and in particular we were pleased with the good and regular communications issued by Artic at all stages (from quoting in a timely manner to arranging attendance and completing the works)

SLaM NHS Foundation Trust

Greig has done a great job on the monthly report and we spoke with all parties on our to keep the system working as efficiently and raise any concerns at the earliest opportunity. Please say a special thanks to Greig for his desire to make sure the Planet PPM system works as well as possible to not only achieve the SLA’s but also as a system to make sure we have a reliable and robust record of the good work we carry out on a month to month basis.

Sainsbury Welcome Centre

The way your team have applied themselves and delivered over the past 18 months is second to none and this has only reinforced the relationship. It has also given me kudos as I brought you in, so thank you. I know that Peter and Danny are both new employees but whoever is doing the recruitment needs a huge pat on the back. They have been incredible. Technically, attitude, application are all top draw. They really are (after 1 month) the go-to guys on site. Feedback from colleagues, staff and students has been positive in regards to reaction times and job done first time.
