Testimonials

At O.G Conservatory Maintenance and repairs we take great pride in the quality of our workmanship and the high standards of service we provide from start to finish.

It matters to us what our customers think and we are delighted to share with you some testimonials from conservatory repair and maintenance projects we have recently undertaken in the South East.

Mr Pile

Thank you very much for all your hard work. We are very pleased to say that the refurbishments apart from looking very smart have definitely passed the ultimate test of keeping all this rain out.

Mr & Mrs Forster

“We just wanted to get in touch and let you know that our conservatory is water tight, thank you so much for doing such a fantastic job. We have had so much rain over the last week and not a drop to be heard.”

Mr Bushell

“Thank you very much for all of your hard work on renovating my conservatory, it looks fantastic its just like having a new one.”

Mrs Zivkovic

We feel extremely lucky to have found O.G Conservatories and that they accepted a job in our area of London. Our 20+ year old timber conservatory was upgraded from noisy, draughty, cold and ugly polycarbonate roof panels to contemporary double glazing with an immediate impact on sound proofing, heat insulation and not to mention the cosmetic appearance. Steve & Max demonstrated the highest standard of work, accurate planning, execution and maintained detailed informative communication throughout-professionalism and quality on a level rarely seen. 

Mr & Mrs Ferguson

“Steve & Max restored our faith in tradesmen. We had a very leaky conservatory, they immediately discovered the problem and within the quoted period fixed it. After several rainy days its dry as a bone inside. Steve’s quote was fair, his work ethic and skills are second to none and I could have set my watch by his time keeping. We would highly recommend O.G Conservatory maintenance to anyone needing repairs etc. to their conservatories. Thank you for a job well done.”

Dr MacLennan
Our conservatory was leaking and had wet rot in several places. We found O.G Conservatories on the web and following an on-site examination Steve George gave us a quotation which we accepted.

We are so glad we did for Steve & Max spent 3 weeks with us and have produced a weatherproof rot free conservatory which is now in better condition than the original. There was more rot than originally thought but in spite of this Steve stuck to the original quote. We are delighted with the result.

In addition we enjoyed them being here-they were both extremely hard working and also very good company.

We highly recommend them without a single reservation.

Mr & Mrs Brindle

It was a pleasure to have Steve & Max here to fix our leaky conservatory with a new roof. They came on time, were totally professional and worked really hard, with one eye on the late September weather!

I had been finding it really hard to find a competent conservatory firm that would even consider doing the work that was necessary, yet following a visit to view the site to take measurements etc, Steve & Max did not let me down and the work was outstanding.

We would have no hesitation in recommending them to anybody with problems to their wooden conservatory. 

Mr Stannard

You will be glad to know that we have had no further leaks to our conservatory, despite some very heavy rainfalls – Thank you for sorting us out.

Mr Blakey
I am so impressed with the work that Steve & Max have done and pleased that I accepted their quotation.

I had a quote from another company that wanted to replace rather than restore.

Steve and Max pretty much rebuilt the entire roof using top quality materials whats more they managed to retain the internal structure that gives my Orangery its distinctive character.

Throughout it is clear that Steve takes pride in his work explaining the reasoning for each process, its a genuine pleasure to see a professional at work!

Steve gave a fixed quotation up front and stuck to it.

I really have no hesitation in recommending O.G Conservatories to anyone.

Dr Lade

I am writing to say how pleased my wife and I are with the excellent work carried out by Steve, Max & Oscar. The conservatory had been well made twenty years ago but the polycarbonate roof had been leaking over time and there were a few areas of rotten timber so that it was not a pleasant place in which to spend time. We had asked other firms for estimates and their offers all proposed  removal of all but the lower half of the brickwork and very costly reconstruction of the timber frame and transparent roof.

Steve from OG provided us with a completely different assessment telling us that the buildings timber was in a generally good state and he could easily repair any problem areas. He proposed replacing the polycarbonate to modern glass and his quote for the work was less than half that of other firms.

Steve and his team began work on schedule and worked quickly and effectively, they were pleasant, helpful and nice to have around. Steve was always happy to explain what he was doing and why and Jayne managed any administrative questions promptly and efficiently.

Upon completion of the work the finished product has given us back a delightful conservatory with a beautiful Activ-blue glass roof that is greatly superior to the old polycarbonate original and brings space and light into the room this area of the house is now transformed and is a pleasure to use whatever the weather.

I would recommend Steve & Jayne and their conservatory maintenance company to anyone who wants a really high quality conservatory restoration.

Mr Adams

We have a 20+ year old wooden conservatory that we love, the roof was leaking and there was a gale blowing. I was prepared to pay a lot of money for a new conservatory but Steve from O.G came to carry out a survey and provided us with a quotation with options and decided to go ahead with the repair and higher specification glass.

Steve & Max came to fit the roof and did a fantastic highly professional job! Steve clearly knows his business and used new technology in replacing the roof parts, I think the new roof will outlive me! O.G have very high standards and did a few repairs that were not in the remit-and finally two really nice guys.

 

Mr & Mrs Edmonds
Jayne please pass this on to the guys: “We are over the moon! Stephen & Max were extremely professional and set a standard that everyone should aspire to! We would not hesitate in recommending them.”
Mr & Mrs Gale-Batten

We have been very impressed with the work carried out by Steve, Max & Oscar and their friendly professionalism, It has been a pleasure having them around. The conservatory looks fantastic and we are looking forward to a leak free future.

Mr & Mrs Trotman
Steve I just wanted to write to recognise what an excellent job you did with our conservatory roof. During this extended period of very heavy rain, we have not had one drop leak inside. Truly impressive, and something we are very grateful for.
Mr Valentine
“Steve just a quick email to thank you for successfully fixing the leak in our Garden Room Roof, we have lived with this for some 15 years and it is a relief to have a proper engineered solution.”
Mr & Mrs Walker
“We are so pleased with the work carried out by your company, Steve and Max did a marvelous job replacing the roof, repairing the rotten timber and much more, in fact it looks like new! This was done with minimum distribution and we would highly recommend O.G Conservatories.”
Mrs Crosbie-Dawson
Steve just letting you know that we had 39ml of rain last night and not a single drop entered our conservatory! finally we found someone that managed to solve and repair our conservatory roof-Thank you
Mrs Lindeman
Thank you so much for doing such a fantastic job. It is a relief to know that you have made the conservatory watertight, and that it will not need attention again. I really appreciated your professional approach to the work that yourself & Max carried out, if a potential customer ever wants to speak to someone I would be more than happy to give a verbal reference.
Mr & Mrs Auty
 

“Many thanks for your willingness to come North and address the leaks from which our orangery has suffered for many years. You and Max worked very hard over the 7 days you were here, were great to have around and very neat and tidy.

You have produced an excellent result which will last us for many years to come without significant maintenance.”

Mr & Mrs Dent
Our 25 year old conservatory had developed quite a few problems that local builders and a “conservatory specialist” had failed to cure.

O.G Conservatories came recommended to us and Steve George and his team did an excellent job in a very professional manner, a job which included completely re-roofing and refurbishing our conservatory.

We would highly recommend O.G Conservatory Maintenance without hesitation.

Mr Payne
“Steve George at O.G Conservatories provided us with a range of refurbishment options that we would be able to do to our wooden conservatory instead of replacing the roof entirely, when it came to the carrying out the work it was carried out without significant disruption and was completed on time, we are really impressed with the quality of the workmanship and the aesthetics are better then it would have been with the other options proposed by other conservatory firms which was full removal and replacement! these alternatives would have taken longer and based on the quotes we received certainly cost a lot more.”
Mr & Mrs Ferranti
“Hi Steve just had to let you know that our refurbished conservatory looks truly magnificent, yourself and Max done a fantastic job-thank you very much. We will be in-touch next year to book you in to do our kitchen conservatory.”
Mr & Mrs Roulstone
O.G Conservatories offers a very professional service. After having a detailed discussion with Steve George about the various options for the restoration of our conservatory (attached to a Grade II listed property) took place, we were quoted for the work, which we accepted then given a convenient date for the work to be carried out. The refurbishment was completed on time, on budget, and to an exceptional standard. Thoroughly recommended.
Mr & Mrs Halbert
We feel we must let you know that we are extremely happy with the work that you recently carried out for us, both in the quality and efficiency of execution. Site management was very professional, with the conservatory floor protected and plastic sheeting erected to isolate the work from our home. It was particularly useful that you have expertise in conservatory construction and the quality of your leadwork was first rate.
Mr & Mrs Birmingham
The new roof looks great and works well now that we have had the rain to test it out! We really appreciated your prompt and efficient, but personable approach to the work you carried out.
Mr & Mrs Greenwood
O.G Conservatories managed a very challenging rebuild of our old rotten conservatory which forms an integral part of our building. Access was not easy but Stephen & Matthew managed the whole process so professionally, making it appear easy when it was clearly anything but! They were prompt, professional and helpful at all times and the quality of the product and the workmanship was superb. They really take pride in what they do. The new conservatory looks great and works beautifully. We are absolutely delighted and would highly recommend them.
Mr & Mrs Smith
21 years ago we had a large conservatory designed and built by Glasshouses. After several years we had a number of leaks for which it proved impossible to find permanent solutions.

We read tributes to O.G Conservatories in National Press articles and also on their website. We contacted Steve George at O.G and agreed to him coming north to make an initial survey after sending him pictures of our problems.

After a thorough inspection which included stripping away previous botched attempts of repair he was able to provide us with a written quotation for three alternatives of work required.

We were sufficiently impressed by his survey and his personal explanations of our problems and solutions that we had no hesitation in asking him to carry out the work quoted as soon as possible.

The work was completed and done in a most professional and friendly manner and we highly recommend O.G Conservatories.

We have had not one drop of water into the conservatory since the work was completed. Steve George lifted a cloud of frustration off our shoulders which has been there for several years we struggled with local tradesmen attempting to solve our problem without success and at some cost.

Mr & Mrs Powell

Many thanks for a great job. Gill and I are delighted with our new back porch. It both tidies up what was a messy area and will keep the weather out, it also enhances the rear elevation of The Cottage and ties together old and newer construction.

 Everything on the project went smoothly from the initial visit, proposal and detailed fine tuning to the actual installation.

 We would certainly recommend you to others.

Mr & Mrs Lock

Before speaking to Steve we had not considered restoration of our wooden conservatory as an option and thought we were looking at a costly replacement, so we were very pleased to find O.G Conservatory Maintenance could refurbish it to such a high standard, making it look like new at less than half the cost. Completed on time with minimum upheaval.

We are very satisfied customers.

Mr & Mrs Fellows-Prynne
  We finally found a company that could help us after spotting an advert in The Daily Telegraph ‘Alison Cork’ supplement.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I called and received a very good reception from Stephens’s wife Jayne she was most helpful and professional asking me if we could email over images and measurements of our existing conservatory and then Stephen would call to see if the job would be a feasible alteration and with an approximate cost (we live in the North East region Newcastle).

Stephen called us back promptly and explained in detail the options available. We were very satisfied with the plan and a date was fixed.

Stephen and Matthew came and spent time taking measurements and returned a few weeks later once our bespoke glass had been manufactured.

 

We found Stephen and Matthew worked to a very high standard of craftsmanship and skill with no disruption to our home.

 

We are delighted with the end result the new glass roof has made a huge difference to the light in our virtually ‘new’ conservatory and the roof ventilator has made a massive difference to the air circulation keeping it a lot cooler.

Best wishes for the future and thank you again.

Mr & Mrs Henderson
We were searching anxiously for someone capable of solving our conservatory repair problem, we looked for three things: 1. Diagnosis: Other companies seemed reluctant to say what would work: Steve George’s conclusions were plausible, understandable and in sympathy with those of a structural engineer. We felt confident that he would do the right job. 2. Quality: We needed the job to be done to the highest standard, and importantly for O.G Conservatories to leave us with the confidence that the problem had been rectified. 3. Service: We needed a company that would show up when they said they would, get the job done with no hidden dramas and charge us what they quoted. These are the boxes that O.G conservatories ticked, and that would make them our first call for conservatory issues in the future. We had seen three other companies prior, and none came close.  
Ms Hilton

I thought having my 25 year old conservatory refurbished would be too disruptive and traumatic as I live in a second floor flat. However, along came O.G Conservatories and they did an amazing job. They were punctual, tidy and cheerful and the whole job went according to schedule. 

I am absolutely delighted with the end result and would not hesitate in recommending them to anyone.

Mr & Mrs Smart

I must say we are absolutely delighted with what you have done for us. What a fantastic job, thank you.

It’s no wonder you’re snowed under with quality like that.

Mr Harris

I feel I must write to tell you how happy I am with the work that you carried out on my conservatory roof last month.

First and foremost, the quality of the finished roof was excellent. It is beautifully finished, elegant and efficient yet understated as I had hoped. The problem of the sagging above the door has been successfully eliminated.

Secondly, I must commend you on your innovation. The roof bares several little features which I know that you have successfully developed over the years, such as the glass panes draining directly into the gutters. Other firms don’t seem to do this, but persist with flawed designs that fail to soon.

Thirdly, your excellent organisation is extraordinary. How you manage it so well from a distance, coming to survey and take measurements and then reappearing some time later with exactly the right parts, is beyond me. Something had to go wrong! – But absolutely nothing did, you finished right on time despite your painstaking efforts and refusal to cut corners.

Finally, Steve, you’ve been a pleasure to deal with. You’ve always been most pleasant, and done exactly what you have said you would do, and communicated effectively throughout. I consider you to be an honourable and trustworthy, supplying an honest service for an honest price, you and Matthew were a pleasure to have around.

 I cannot thank you enough.

Mr & Mrs Clark

Steve George carried out an initial survey and I was immediately impressed by his knowledgeable and professional approach to the project. The work was completed with minimum disruption, on time and was excellent value for money.

We are delighted with the end result and would have no hesitation in recommending O.G conservatories.

Mr Tinder

After several years of leaking skylights and valley on my conservatory roof I contacted “O.G Conservatory Maintenance” to try to rectify the problems.

The professional and on schedule approach of Steve George and his team could not be faulted.

From site visit to completion was carried out on time, on budget and with minimal disruption.

I would definitely recommend “O.G Conservatory Maintenance” to anyone wishing to renovate/repair their conservatory and if, in the future, I wanted another conservatory built this is the company that I would choose.

Mr & Mrs McGill

Many thanks Steve, a very professional job and expected no less from yourself. Janet and I are so pleased with your work. I have copied our builder in on the photos for his awareness of a job well done and that he has 100% confidence in recommendation when any more similar work comes up.

Mr & Mrs Hopper
 

We couldn’t be any happier with our new conservatory. Can I just say from our first contact via phone, the site visit and you finally undertaking and completing the job, it has been a pleasure dealing with you and your company in my experience it is rare to have tradesmen who took such care of our property to such a high standard. It was refreshing to see someone who actually cares about what they do and strives to do the best possible job.

In addition and this is a personal thing for me actually turns up when they say they will and stays until the job is complete.

I would have no hesitation in recommending O.G Conservatory Maintenance to anyone requiring your service.

 

Mr & Mrs Hazell-Smith
 

We would just like to say “we are absolutely delighted with the conservatory roof, etc. Thank you for doing a lovely job and we wish you and your business well for the future.

Mr & Mrs Parry-Smith

I would recommend O.G Conservatories to anyone needing a conservatory renovation, they took great care of the whole job, was tidy and covered the wooden floor with hardboard and plastic before work started. We were kept informed and consulted when decisions needed to be made. They have turned our tired old conservatory into a room we can use all year round and be proud of for a fraction of the cost of a new one.

Mr & Mrs Davies

We have rarely come across such a professional and caring approach when needing any sort of building maintenance. The knowledge and expertise possessed by Steve George and his team was invaluable in upgrading our conservatory roof from noisy and drafty polycarbonate to quiet and well insulated double glazing, which has now given us a usable space that we can enjoy throughout the year. The attention to detail both in the planning stage and the finishing was exemplary, lead flashings-bespoke timber work-tinted glass and as a result of this and Steve’s open manner in discussing the job and giving excellent advice, there were no nasty surprises or hidden extra charges to the original estimate. The result: A pleasure and total satisfaction

Uri Geller
“I have owned a bespoke timber conservatory for 30 years, but it started leaking some time ago, although several attempts were made to fix it none were successful, until along came O.G Conservatory Maintenance! Stephen George was amazing he knew just what to do, he worked very hard in carrying out the necessary repairs and finally my conservatory no longer leaks!! I would have no hesitation in recommending Stephen and his fantastic company.”
Mrs Pink
I feel I have to tell you how pleased I am with the work you have done to repair the leaking roof on my conservatory, the swimming pool roof and also the house roof. The standard of work is exceptionally high and I have no hesitation in recommending you to others. You left the property clean and tidy and your colleagues were courteous and obliging throughout.
Mr & Mrs Le Roux
“I would like to thank you for your most professional and stress free service. It was a absolute pleasure to do business with you and I highly recommend that anyone looking for a first class conservatory company to contact you. If any prospective clients would like to contact me I would be only too happy to do so.”
Mr & Mrs Taylor

Both Beverley and I would like to thank you for the great job you performed on or conservatory, it really looks so good and we now have huge confidence in its sustainability.

It has been a pleasure to have you and Max around and we have every admiration for your professionalism and quality of the workmanship.

Mrs Warren

I was tearing my hair out when my conservatory started leaking recently, moving furniture, mopping up and hoping it would not leak on guests was a nightmare.

I eventually found Steve at O.G Conservatories and found him down to earth, very knowledgeable and genuinely wanted to help solve my problem rather than just trying to sell me expensive repairs as others had done.

With a free no obligation survey visit and written quotation I chose to go ahead the leaks were rectified, I would highly recommend O.G Conservatory maintenance.

Mr & Mrs Salter
 

My wife and I were considering a new conservatory as our old one was starting to leak a little and some of the timber joists were showing signs of wet rot. We sought advice from O.G Conservatories and Steve made an appointment to carry out a survey, following which he provided us with a quotation for the necessary work.

We accepted the quotation and were given a date for the work to start and an indication of the length of time that the work would take. Steve and Max arrived on the date agreed, completed the work one day earlier than anticipated and the whole experience was a pleasure.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Steve and O.G Conservatory Maintenance Ltd.

Mr & Mrs Peck
I really do have to write to thank you so much for the ‘miracles’ that you performed on the conservatory at my house in Milton Malsor. As you know, I had rented out my house for several years and as a result the leaks that it had developed over these years had been somewhat overlooked. When I decided to sell in the spring 2014 I knew something fairly drastic had to be done to the conservatory to make the house saleable. This is when I had the good fortune of contacting yourself. Of the three companies I contacted for recommendations and quotes, yours was far the most professional and reassuring. From initial contact, to first site visit, to quote, to site measurements and finally to completion of the job, everything went like clockwork and always totally professional. I can now confirm that – thanks to you and the ‘miracle’ that you performed earlier this year – the house has now been sold.
Mr Hewitt

Fantastic service and communication from the start. Thanks to Jayne, Steve & team a great job done and I really appreciate you squeezing me into your busy schedule.

“I was really struggling to find someone that I would trust to do a good job on my conservatory roof vent replacement, from our initial discussion on the phone and from the questions Steve asked it was clear he knew what he was talking about and understood what was required.” 

Mr & Mrs Naish

So glad we found someone that could help us and thanks for a great job.

Mr & Mrs Fielden

Having had problems with leaking valleys and hips on our conservatory for many years we were at a loss as to where to look for a reliable company that could provide the necessary expertise and resolve the issues once and for all. From the moment Steve came to assess what needed to be done and discussed his findings and proposals, he gave us complete confidence. He immediately tracked down the causes and clearly explained what needed to be done. A full quote arrived a few days later which laid everything out in great detail.

The roof work was carried out in a most expert and professional way by Steve and Matthew, who were a pleasure to have on our premises.

In addition the heavy external doors were rehung so that for the first time in years all the bolts can now be properly locked, the finishing touch was applied by the expert covering of the roof finials in lead (no more painting!).

We would recommend O.G Conservatories for any conservatory work without hesitation.

Mr & Mrs Burgess

We would just like to say thank you for our new conservatory roof we are both very pleased with the finished result and cannot believe the transformation it has made to our existing conservatory, both from an appearance and functional point of view. We would be more than happy to endorse and recommend your company to anyone else thinking of undertaking a similar project. We found you and your company very professional from start to finish, initially very helpful when we were deciding on the various options for our new roof, and then very hard working and efficient during the actual build which has resulted in a superb result. Many thanks again for your excellent workmanship and we wish you every deserved success in the future.

Mr Dunning

Thank you very much for the work you carried out on my conservatory, the roof glass has made a huge improvement.

Mr Platts

We are very happy with the work that you carried out to our conservatory, I would gladly recommend you to our friends.

Mrs Chessell

Thank you for the most efficient service that I have experienced in while.

Mr & Mrs Hawkes
 

We would just like to thank you for the excellent job you did to solve the leaky roof of our conservatory. You listened to all our concerns, and the advice and explanation you gave us on how to proceed were superb.

We are very impressed with your lead work and so giving our conservatory a new lease of life. We would not hesitate to recommend O.G. Conservatories.

 

Mrs Williams

Thank you for all your wonderful work on our conservatory. Both Adrian and I are delighted with it.

Mr Hewitt
 

I am just writing to say many thanks for the wonderful job you have done on our balcony. The lead work looks fantastic and is exactly how I envisioned it would be.

As you know, this weekend it has rained virtually nonstop! With this amount of rain it would normally mean the plasterwork downstairs would be discolouring as it would be getting damper due to the water penetrating through from above, well after close inspection the plasterwork downstairs is still dry as a bone.

Once again Steve many thanks for the superb job you have done, if I need any more work done in the future I would not hesitate to contact you!

Mr & Mrs Jacobs

We greatly appreciated the professionalism and attention to detail with which Stephen George undertook, the recent rotten timber repairs have transformed our 18-year old conservatory and given it a new lease of life! We were so impressed by his initial advice and “can do” attitude, rather than advising complete replacement as other contractors might have done!

We would certainly use his services again.

Mr & Mrs Jennings

I am writing to say thank you for the really outstanding job you have done for us, maintaining our conservatory roof. You provided excellent initial advice, and a clear quotation describing the proposed repairs. The completed work has left our 15 year old conservatory looking as good as new. Our only regret is not seeking your services sooner! We will not hesitate to recommend you to friends. Thank you once again for a job really well done.

 

Mr Hudson

Steve George carried out the work he said he would, on time, courteously and to a high standard. We would definitely use him again.

Mr Ostley

In these days of commercial services it is usual to receive letters of complaint, but, on this occasion, I write to congratulate your Company on a first class job.

The specification for the work was carried out to the letter and it is refreshing to see the right methods used in preparation, before attempting to apply any finishes.

Unfortunately with today’s standards, it is the norm to apply paint within the first hour on site.

It is with pleasure that I recommend your Company to any future Client.

Mr Barnes

O.G Conservatory Maintenance have just completed refurbishing our conservatory roof , the work was carried out on time and in a careful and tidy fashion.

We are delighted with the result and would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone who requires repairs to their conservatory.
