Carly Eaton-Walker, Owner at the Old Bridge Inn
“I received outstanding customer service from my first contact with JLA, right through to the delivery and installation of my dishwasher. The team were reliable and friendly, and nothing was too much trouble. Their communication was brilliant, and the delivery and installation were arranged to take place at a time that suited me. The JLA engineer was first-class.”
