"I have now personally dealt with Michael Petchey from Bricks & Mortgages for over three years. I was put in contact with Michael through a Local Estate Agent who recommended highly of their services. In the past three years, Michael has acted for both me personally and for my business requirements. Michael's work ethic and strive to deliver are fantastic, along with his knowledge and understanding of the industry. I am using Bricks & Mortgages again for another personal requirement, and I would now not use anyone else. I would highly recommend Bricks & Mortgages and Michael Petchey to all, and I look forward to continuing to use their services for the foreseeable.”
