Review by Iris
on 14th July 2025
"I have been delighted with the support I received from my initial contact with the office, to the visit or the surveyor and then the completion of the work, which was to deal with wood boring beetles. Everyone was very friendly, professional and respectful of my property. I have already recommended Active Services to a friend."
Trader reply: "Hello Iris, thank you for recommending us. We are glad you are happy with the work conducted."
