What our clients say
CRYPTO 2024 CONFERENCE
The service from conception through to completion is fantastic and even after completion they then go the extra mile to ensure that the project is handed back sparkling clean! Carrying out works for us in a busy independent school, we are often very specific with when and how works should be carried out, which Smith & Brenson always somehow manage to accommodate, further to this the standard of the work is always exemplary. The ability to meet tight deadlines with exacting standards whilst delivering friendly customer service is their strong point.”
Tim Peacock, Facilities Manager, Royal High School, Bath (an independent day and boarding school for girls aged 3-18, part of the Girls’ Day School Trust)
MUCP EXCHANGES
Since having them on board it has enabled the school to be kept to a high standard and meant that in the last DFE inspection audit we were rated as one of the top 5% best maintained schools in the country. I would thoroughly recommend them. They have always priced work fairly and delivered beyond expectations.”
Thomas Powe, Systems and Services Manager, Bishop Road Primary School, Bristol
MEO TOOLS
I have used them for all kinds of work and the range of trades they are able to cover takes the hassle out of everything. Unlike other companies, Smith & Brenson have been more than happy to carry out the smallest of jobs to larger projects where they are able to take the lead and co-ordinate other contractors and trades.
One of the key benefits I have found from working with Smith & Brenson is the wealth of experience they possess, which ensures they are able to advise on specifications and help problem solve when needed, always ensuring a quality finish. Smith & Brenson never compromise on quality, always ensuring pricing is competitive and finishing is second to none. I would not hesitate to recommend Smith & Brenson to anyone in need of a reliable and quality construction company.”
Sam Hembury, Head of Resource, Sheiling School, Thornbury, South Gloucestershire (an independent, residential school for children and young people aged 6-19 with special educational needs)
