“I would highly recommend Peter for any requirement where a work of excellence is needed”
Hi Peter,
Just thought I would let you know that my beautiful Jarrah blanket box arrived safely today (all the way from Perth WA to Wollongong NSW) and I am very happy with the outstanding quality of the workmanship.
I can highly recommend the removal company, the blanket box was well protected and arrived in perfect condition. The removalist unpacked the blanket box and placed it in the room for me.
When I was on the internet looking for a custom made blanket box in a design I liked, I was happy when I found your website. Then I realised you were on the other side of the country, that was not a problem to Peter. Peter was terrific to deal with kept me up dated on the progress of the blanket box and time frame when it would be completed and delivered.
I would highly recommend Peter for any requirement where a work of excellence is needed.
Many thanks,
Lyn
Wollongong, N.S.W.
