What customers say about our work

“Con has worked in 2 locations for us - a Victorian terraced house in St Leonards on Sea and a Victorian three storey clock tower in Heathfield. We asked Con to replace the old single glazed windows with new wooden double glazed sash windows that were in keeping with the age and aesthetics of this Victorian home. Con sourced and fitted the windows for us, we couldn't have asked for better service. Con was always up front regarding budgets and material costs and if anything unexpected popped up he would discuss it first before proceeding.

My mother-in-law purchased a clock tower in 2016 and took it on as a restoration project. The property had been badly neglected for 40 years. Having listened to our praise for Con she decided he was the man for the job. It was a challenge for any competent craftsman but Con was brilliant and tackled the work with enthusiasm and expertise. Over the period of 8 months he and his small team worked on the interior rooms and the re-pointing to all the exterior brickwork. He tackled and eradicated the dry rot that was present in much of the woodwork. Con is great to work with and fully explains what he is doing. He produces solutions not problems. Nothing is too much trouble.

We would gladly recommend Con every time”.

“My new house is truly lovely but if I had to choose my favourite feature it would be the beautiful wall to wall bookcase designed and made for me by Con Ryan. To watch a true craftsman like Con at work gives you a feeling of complete confidence of knowing that the end product will be something more than special. I have an extensive book collection and, with books of different genres and of multi sizes, the planning of the housing was no mean feat. Con was willing to find solutions and adapt.

The execution and finishing of the work was excellent and I can heartily recommend his work and expertise to anyone looking for great workmanship and quality.”

I needed two new Georgian sash windows for my Grade II listed house. Con worked on the specification for the wooden windows and installed both windows with new fixtures and fittings which are in keeping with the house. I am very pleased with the results. Thank you Con.

“I have known Con Ryan for about 30 years. He has done a great deal of work for me at my house including putting in new windows and doors, as well as storage for a bath and shower room and a large bedroom. He has also worked at my holiday home, putting in a new balcony with bi-fold doors. He has always worked conscientiously and thoroughly with great attention to detail. I can strongly recommend him.
