HISTORICAL HIGHLIGHTS

In 1973, we were the first company in Scotland to achieve 1-day Rewiring. Twelve months after, we were the first to boast 1-week Modernisation with unique decanting into luxury mobile homes.

A few years later, we astonished English onlookers with the speed and efficiency of our Turnaround (which involved reducing interiors to 4 bare walls, followed by refurbishment and full decoration).

Each of these feats received highly favourable TV coverage. What else? Well, we completed every remaining pre-war house for a council in Greater Manchester. 3,600 in total. And recently a scottish project featured a particularly challenging form of height reduction. Once again, according to the body who commissioned our work, we responded admirably. Looking back, we've turned over 40,000 housed into homes. That's a sizeable number of satisfied customers. But that's not the entire story. Because G F Sharp always have - and always will - take on jobs involving a single trade, or a combination of trades.

For example, we've completed 50,000 central heating, 60,000 rewiring and 10,000 recladding and roof-filling tasks throughout Scotland and Northern England.

Some trades, or all trades, it all points to the specialists at G F Sharp.

• PRIOR TO PAINT REPAIRS - Involving joinery, bricklaying, plumbing and painting.

• BISF PROPERTIES - we've frequently encountered and overcome structural, insulation and condensation problems on these system- build, post-war homes.

• RESPONSE MAINTENANCE - common maintenance headaches, if tackled on a large scale, need an uncommon standard of organisation before they can be rectified. G F Sharp have that organisation.

• NO DECANTING OF RESIDENTS IF UNNECESSARY but using luxury mobile homes if it is.
