wastafirth 01 Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Just had a visit from a charming man wanting to give us a new driveway with an excellent price to boot! Do what you wish, but the company is registered in Edinburgh to a mailbox shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fistrail Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 I have seen some of jobs they have done in Tingwall and Burra ,not great quality jobs I don't think I would have paid them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulb Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 please please dont use. if you need your drive done find someone local. maybe it will cost you more but your more likely to have a decent job done. as last time dont assume door knockers are nice honest hard workers just trying to earn a crust. most often they are not. a decent worker does not need to travel away from base to earn a living. if your tempted just delay saying yes for a few days. if its a now or never deal let it be never. just look in tje paper or yellow pages plenty of folks willing to work for you BGDDisco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Akkeri Posted January 29, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 This lot (Wilson and Sons Contractors Ltd) have been letting themselves into people's houses and have been chased out of some places. As well as that they have been doing 'work' that has not been requested then charging for it. Criminals. Do not use them - they'll leave when the work stops.

Fistrail Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Drive around and look at the quality of the jobs they have done ,two at the tingwall loch and two at the soothend of burra before you go down the brae to the cattle grid. Get some local lads to do it properly for probably the same price and a better finish , Fladdaman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavi Ugl Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) This lot (Wilson and Sons Contractors Ltd) have been letting themselves into people's houses and have been chased out of some places. As well as that they have been doing 'work' that has not been requested then charging for it. Criminals. Do not use them - they'll leave when the work stops.If that's the case(and I don't doubt it) then the Police need to be getting involved. Surely doing unrequested work and then charging for it is a criminal offence. As is entering peoples' homes without permission. It's called unlawful entry.
