Clinton Conservatories

The quality was not what it was supposed to be (nothing like it )the conservatory was built badly leaking water after the first few days ....John mccaffrey promised to fix it but never did anything ..trying to contact him was hopeless so had to finally give up inthe end ......I was tell anyone not to deal with Clinton conservatorys or the company he has set up to do repairs as it would be his own repairs he would be doing and there would be plenty of them

This company (actually a one-man operation - John McCaffrey) left us with a building site for over a year after taking J17,000 part payment from us. We had to take him to court to try to get it back but despite a court ruling in our favour we still haven't seen a penny from him. All we got was another bill from our lawyer. Don't let this man con you into thinking he has a regular work force (he doesn't) or that he has any kind of reliability. He will lie about anything to keep you on board. We had to get another company to finish the job and thank goodness we did. I can't imagine the mess he might have made of the job if he had ever got round to finishing it. It all seems fine at first with the site visit, the plans, the planning permission and even the beginning of construction (three Polish guys who could hardly speak any english) but then he disappeared with a large chunk of our money and became almost impossible to contact. His place of work is an unmarked, run-down unit in an industrial estate, he never answers his home telephone, his mobile or responds to mail or even answers when you knock on his door. None of the conservatories pictured on his web site were built by him, they are all just pictures chosen at random from the internet. The list of complaints goes on and on. I repeat, don't trust him, don't go near him. He now trades under the company name Four Seasons Conservatory Maintenance - don't trust this either. He is on a list of rogue traders.

Brilliant Conservatory. Painless from start to finish and brilliant value
