CUSTOMERS COMMENTS -

Here's recent customers comments below and please view the brick project in the "customers projects" gallery

Stuart A, Felixstowe - 10th March 2021

I was looking for 2 matching Victorian doors to finish my house off and after much searching online I came across these guys. Sent them an email with dimensions and requirements and I got a message back the next morning with photos.. they matched exactly other doors I have. We agreed a price and they even arranged the courier delivery for me. Fantastic service and will no doubt be looking at what else they have and hope to take a trip to their site when restrictions allow. Thanks R&S, great job.

Hi,

A few months ago I bought 250 wire cut reds from you to make a patio. I just wanted to let you know how pleased I was with the bricks. They cleaned up really well and the patio looks very good.

The quality of the bricks was also excellent, in the end there was only one of the 250 I could not use - probably better than a pallet of new bricks

I've attached a couple of photos of the patio, also one of a wall we built last year using your multibricks.

I'll certainly come to Reclaim and Salvage again if I have another project.

Regards

D B

"Hi Andy,

Kind regards, 

Ashley"

Business Debtors : Currently we have NO defaulting debtors - Thank-You

Rogue Suppliers:

CURRYS aka DSG Retail Ltd  - suppliers of the worst quality products we have used in years and then un-contactable when there is a problem to resolve. Their web site is a masterclass in blocking customer complaints and communications , their telephone system likewise designed to run up massive bills on hold as you 'speak' ( or don't) to their global call centres as far afield as South Africa.  AVOID them at ALL costs - we are now taking legal action to obtain a refund for their defective equipment that despite being 'guaranteed' for 5 years started failing in 2 months and is now deemed unrepairable by the manufacturer SMEG.
