(Feb 2011) Hello Helen, Our house signs have arrived amid much excitement and we are delighted with them! I absolutely love the autumn sandstone and I can't wait to see them in situ (maybe this weekend). Also, thanks to your efficient service we are able to keep the builders happy--and hopefully on schedule as they construct my annex (The Orangery) which is attached to my daughter and family's house (Saffron House) where I currently reside. Once again many thanks for a friendly and efficient service and a most agreeable product. Best wishes Janet

(Feb 2011) Hi Helen Thank you, we have just received the sign. We are delighted, it is perfect and beautiful. It's a shame it's going ouside where we can't see it! Thank you so much for your patience in endeavouring to get it just right, we really appreciate it. Kind Regards..... Shaorn


(Jan 2011) Hi Helen I am sorry I did not reply earlier but I have had a dreaded virus and not been able to do anything for over a week. Anyway I can't thank you enough for the engraved house sign plaque, when it arrived it was better than I had imagined. I had bought it for my partner David who had just gained planning permission to build a house on our farm; this is why I wanted it for Christmas (it came well in time too.) I just wanted to say your service and quality of workmanship is second to none and if in the future I need anything else I will be back in touch. Many thanks again... Jenny

(Jan 2011) Hello Helen, Happy New Year to you all I am writing to say thank you all so much for the Plews Cottage house sign. Not only did you cope with our prevarications and delays, but you also had the snow for couriers to contend with. It arrived, I hear, on Tuesday 21st December and looks absolutely fabulous. Both Lindsey and Ian are delighted with it and look forward to warmer weather when the rendering of the house, and the placement of the sign can go ahead! Thank you so much.. Maggie

Hi Helen, My Mum received the house sign today and she absolutely loves it. Thanks you so much for your exquisite work and professional, prompt service - especially at this time of year! Much appreciated... Many thanks, Steph Breen
