I hired this item to make the job easier and quicker
I hired this item, a plaster board lifter, on the basis of the on line description that implied that one man could lift the board a short height in the upright position onto the lifter, tilt it to a flat position and then lift it to the ceiling joists. What I got would only lift the board after I'd lifted it horizontally 5' from the floor, a feat only just inside my physical capabilities and after significant improvisation, this greatly slowed down the job I was doing.
Excellent service
Great service, based on experience and knowledge of tools
Really impressed with the service received when I hired a core drill from here. I had never used one before and needed to drill through church walls 5 foot thick. Trystan took a lot of time to ensure that they provided the right set up and to explain how to use it for best effect. It worked a treat. This was a very different experience to using a better known national firm who’s staff did not have practical experience of the tools and sent something entirely unsuitable.
