Don’t trust

They recived the parcel well and quickly I had sold them two half soverons that they had said would be worth £600 each making it 1.2k total. When they got them I received a email saying they were only worth £600 due to them being damaged even though the website never specified that they needed to be a certain condition and my coins were not in bad condition at all I mean they we’re not mint but no majour damage, very disappointed wouldn’t recommend, I then called them and asked them if they would ship them back and pay postage and they refused leading to me spending £10 just to get them sent back to me. WOULDNT RECOMMEND!!!

Disappointing

Husband took time off work for a visit for quotes on numerous jobs in our property including 2 room refits so not a small job by any means. Initial impressions were very good and he was impressed with the visit but we were left with vague instructions about getting back to them after visiting a plumbers merchants to choose items. After a delay in the project due to health issues at our end which meant we hadn’t been able to do this, attempts to contact them again to discuss getting the price for the initial parts of the job have gone unanswered and ignored for nearly a month now despite their customer charter claims that they won’t disappear. Very disappointing as they seemed to offer what we were looking for but no follow up after the initial visit and no response to our messages is frustrating when we were planning to use them for significant works.

Professional and Helpful Company

A very professional and helpful company. All staff ranging from Director through to skilled staff and apprentices were masters of their craft. A very positive team who delivered the results they promised. We would certainly use the company again.

Then look no further than Atkinsons.

Would highly recommend

Fantastic! Your one stop shop for all of your building and maintenance

Great quality work from an impressive and experienced team. Fast, reliable and do exactly what they say they’ll do. Their communication is very impressive and they have a defined management structure making working with them very easy.

We’ve used Atkinsons for large refurb projects and all of our ongoing maintenance needs across our North East portfolio.

Could not recommend them more.

Right people for the job

10 out of 10

Had an emergency leak coming through the ceiling today. Rang these guys and they were here in minutes. Dale was great. He rang for a joiner from the same company to fix the flooring and the whole job was complete within 20 minutes. They even put the carpet and bed back in place for us which they didnt need to do. Proper gents. Cant thank them enough!

Very thorough boiler service.

I was having a few minor issues with my boiler, Pressure dropping and Ignition lock out error. Someone recommended Atkinsons to me, so I booked a boiler service and to look at my issues. Dale turned up at my home and within 5 seconds of removing the boiler front cover he found the 1st fault! He also found other fault on boiler, turns out my boiler has never ever been serviced correctly in 8 years! Delighted with my experience.

New Electric Boiler

Dale from Atkinson’s came and looked at what we needed. We had a quote within a day and Dale was very helpful and a great chap too. The boiler and google nest were fitted after removing the previous one within two days. Really nice guys and a great service. Thanks very much. 👏🏻

Could not recommend more highly

Gary and his team of skilled tradesmen have done an incredible job in delivering our major extension on time and in budget. They are incredibly skilled, dedicated and diligent with a high level of attention to detail in ensuring our extension matched well with our 1920s home. Gary managed the whole 5 month programme seamlessly from building works, major new heating works, fit out, craft joinery and landscaping. We could not recommend them more highly.

Delighted!

My journey with ATKINSONS from the first consultation to the impeccable final touches has been extraordinary. In October 2023, they completed a beautiful extension for my home in Durham, which has left me extremely impressed with the results.

Gary was the project manager assigned to us, and his commitment shone through immediately. He consistently communicated with clarity, established and adhered to realistic timelines, and made certain we were updated at every stage. His meticulous attention to detail and adept coordination skills meant that the final product was not just what we had hoped for, but something that surpassed our original vision.

The team at ATKINSONS showcased remarkable craftsmanship. Their sharp eye for detail and unwavering dedication to excellence are quite exceptional. Throughout the project, they worked with a professionalism that respected our personal space and time, ensuring that each day ended with a site that was tidy and orderly.

Particularly impressive was Gary's handling of unexpected hurdles. His proactive stance meant that any potential problems were swiftly and effectively managed, keeping the project smoothly on course.

The result is a stunning extension that harmonizes perfectly with our existing home, enhancing our living space beautifully. I am grateful to Gary and the whole ATKINSONS team for their stellar work. I highly recommend them to anyone in Durham or beyond looking for a trustworthy and professional team for their building needs.
