We recently used Hames and Sons to fix two external patio doors and 5 internal door handles and they were excellent. The work is professional and was very challenging given the state of some of the doors. The price was reasonable and the guy was very friendly and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend

Ross came out to my house this morning after responding to a post I made on a local fb page.
My patio doors were catching and not locking, which was not simply down to the heat. On inspection he realised my door hinges had loosened and the door needed straightening. He was lovely and helpful. Would absolutely use him again.
