Hi,
just a warning... if your car is in any way 'unusual' don't go to Mr Clutch.
I have a citroen with hydractive suspension, I went there today to get the brakes checked out. They didn't 'set' the suspension when they jacked it up and as a result the suspension is knackerd! :mad:
Off to Pilling tomorrow to see what they say about my suspension. I have a feeling I won't see any of the money to fix it...
does anyone know if I have any rights with regards to this?

Anyone know of a reliable company who put up satellite dishes please? A friend put one up for me but couldn't get it working. We exchanged the LNB unit (or something like that) but it still doesnt work, so I think a pro to come and sort it out. I'd be grateful for any recommendations.

Thanks

can anyone recommend a locak mechanic for brake pads and discs to be fitted - just need them fitting as I already bought them a darn sight cheaper than I could have got at a garage LOL

Hi
I want to knock down the internal wall between my kitchen and dinning room, can anyone recommend a local builder who could do this? I've had some bad experiences in the past so im hoping a local recommendation will help avoid the stress!
Thanks in advance

I had Anglian - they're not the cheapest, but I found them the best quality when I was researching. Also their aftercare was good - came out a couple of times to fix small things - no quibble.

I had Keyne Home Improvements do the front of my house - the guy is very honest, upfront and came in a lot cheaper than the 'big' names... and is FENSA registered etc. When I get the back done I'll be calling him to quote...
