When we purchased our new home in Perth at the end of December 2016, the home report had identified a number of items (scoring 2s) that needed fixing. We invited Alliance to quote for fixing all these works (which required different trades). The work was done on time to a very high standard with the workmen polite and tidy and the supervisor checking to make sure that there were no problems." Peter Lloyd 20 Graybank Road
Aaron, Tracey and the team at Alliance Timber couldn't have been more helpful and supportive. From the initial inspection to the completion of the job they provided a professional and high quality level of work and service. Thank you.
"Can’t recommend these guys highly enough. Having just finished a complete house renovation there aren’t a lot of trades people I would recommend but Alliance did a perfect job at a great price. They damp-proofed the whole house and did some structural renovations at the back of the property. They worked hard, fast and well, they were always courteous, friendly and always cleaned up at the end of every day. Nothing was ever a problem and any little extras were quickly taken care of no questions asked. 1st class service from quote to finish!"
"We had some work done to our roof the other day. We have had workmen across the road (from a different company, that I shall not mention!) for nearly 3 months and not one of them had been as approachable and friendly as John and Justin. They were here for one day to fix our roof and cleaned the gutters and in that time did an excellent job. I would definitely recommend them."
"Work done efficiently and to a high standard
Staff brilliant and kept me well informed of all jobs required
Would highly recommend them"
"Dear Alliance, I would like to thank your company for carrying out urgent repairs to our roof. Your men were very polite and efficient. hopefully we dont get winds like that again. Regards"
"This is the 2nd time I have used Alliance. Lived up to the speed and quality as the last time!"
"Aaron and his team have recently carried out external projects to our house and to say we are delighted is an understatement! Highly recommend and would not hesitate to use in the future."
"It was so refreshing to have a punctual, polite team carry out our new extension. They went the extra mile to ensure they treated our property as if it were their own and ensured that they cleaned up after each day. We were happy from the initial meeting right through to the end of the project. We can't thank team Alliance enough!!"
"I recently used Alliance to convert my garage in to an office. They took care of everything from start to finish. The team carried out a top quality job and I could not single any one of them out as they all put in 100% . A perfect garage conversion without any hassle."
"We just wanted to say how pleased we are with the standard of work you have carried out recently. High quality plastering for a very reasonable price. Many thanks."
