I've been in this line of work for years so I know what a decent service looks like and this is one. Everything from the booking through to the finished job followed the usual steps and nothing caught me out. The price sits where it should for the quality you get. I'd send clients their way without a second thought.
Read moreI'd looked at a couple of others first and this one was the cheapest on paper. Sign up kept failing on my card though and it took three goes plus a call before it went through. Once I was in it was fine, but the start was a real faff and I was not impressed.
Read moreCompared with the other two I'd shortlisted this came out on top, mainly because the booking was simpler and I could change dates without a phone call. The others wanted me to jump through hoops for every small change. Here it all worked from the account page and the reminder came through as promised. Would happily go back.
Read moreNeeded it for a gig I had booked and didn't want to be stuck. Signed up on the app in the middle of the night, pretty smooth. Just a bit slow to confirm the details which was annoying but fine in the end.
I went for the basic option because I wanted good value and it did the job well enough. The sign up was quick and the price was lower than the big names I checked. My only gripe is the wait, it took nearly three weeks to get started and I had to chase once. Not the end of the world but worth knowing if you're in a hurry.
Would go with them again, they got me sorted in the end. Signing up was simple enough and I knew which option I wanted. The only thing that dragged was waiting for them to come back to me after I sent over my details, took a good few days and I had to chase once. Once it was going it was fine.
Went for the annual plan rather than paying monthly and it works out a fair bit cheaper over the year. It covers everything I needed without paying for extras I'd never use. Signing up took a few minutes and the confirmation came straight away. Good value if you know you'll use it all year.
Compared with the cheaper sites I'd seen this one came in noticeably higher for what I needed. The sign up itself was fine and I got a reply to my first question the same day. It does work, it's just not the bargain I was after, so I'll see what else is about next time.
What I liked most was that the prices were laid out clearly from the start, so I knew exactly what I was paying before I signed up. For the money it's a sensible choice and I didn't feel the need to shop around. The first appointment had a small hiccup with the time but they sorted it with a quick call. Would use again.
