What our customers are saying

Thought I’d call you, It was really refreshing to have an engineer that turned up on time, reported in as expected, finished a job as required, doubled up on his attendance by completing the maintenance and gave clear feedback when returning the site keys, credit to the engineer and Lift Specialists Ltd for a great start to a contract.”

McGlashans Building Management

“As you are aware I attended a witness test last Friday to the above site, this unit is probably the best lift that I have ever had the pleasure to attend, the quality of the installation and workmanship is second to none, with only two very minor items to rectify. I would therefore like to take this opportunity to personally thank you and all of your team for all of your hard efforts in achieving this very high standard of workmanship, you have really raised the bar on this one. Excellent performance across all areas of the contract, particularly with the progress being made with the replacement and upgrade of the passenger lifts, thank you.”
