Booking My Services

Hi there! Just a quick note to let you know that I run a ‘non-drop in’ business, which means I kindly ask that you give me a heads-up before visiting or dropping off your equipment. This helps me ensure that I can give your job the time and attention it deserves. Thanks very much for your assistance, and please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or concerns.
