What our customers say about us

Outstanding service from the team at BGS Birmingham, from the moment we made the initial call to when John attended our Warwick site. Everyone did a commendable job. Thank you!

Mike Cox | CBRE, Warwick

Many thanks for the excellent service provided by your team at BGS Glasgow with our various door issues at our Kilmalid site. Your prompt and efficient resolution to each problem was truly appreciated.

Ian Stanley | Chivas Brothers, Dumbarton

The door functions and looks great, and the gentlemen who installed it were exceptionally professional and courteous, truly a credit to BGS, their Birmingham branch in particular.

Mark Frumenzi | Biffa, Tipton

The reports for the West Bromwich site are the best we’ve received. They have been issued individually for each door serviced, with clear notes and remedials/faults identified. This is the level of service that is expected and the format of service reports that we would like to receive for doors serviced on all Flexspace sites. Thanks to Sorin and Kyle from BGS Birmingham for their efforts.

Jurgita Poluniovaite | Flexspace, West Bromwich

My thanks to John and Sorin from the Birmingham depot, as they were both excellent. All trims at the AA (Automobile Association) building in Oldbury are now in place, and the overhead brush makes the roller shutter come together very nicely. The trim is also a lot better on the bottom and is a more suitable fit compared to the original. Thanks for getting this sorted!

Jordan Anderson | CBRE, Oldbury

Thank you, Charlotte, for all the timely effort and everything you have done for me today. This is much appreciated; you are a credit to BGS.

Amey, National Highways

I just want to say a huge thank you to the BGS team for coming through for us.

Ben worked tirelessly on Friday to secure a HIAB (Hydrauliska Industri AB) for our site, and the engineers that attended on Saturday did an exceptional job, got the gate back up and running again.

We really appreciate all the effort and how quickly you got things done. Your hard work means a lot to us.

CBRE

Thank you very much everyone for your support to get this door fixed in record breaking time! Fantastic service.

CBRE

I just wanted to say how impressed we were with the service we received. I only raised the call out in the morning, and someone was on site by the afternoon. A lot of my job is spent chasing people, so we’re not used to things happening that quickly; the site manager was very happy!

Extra

Peter did an excellent job getting the disabled door working by retrofitting new equipment onto it. It’s working exactly the way it was before, with all the correct interlocks for safety and fire alarm integration. He worked until late last night and called me, as I requested, around 20:30 to provide an update. I was really impressed with his attitude in getting the job done! It’s very easy to criticise engineers for not doing a good job, but we should also praise them when they do great work. So, please let Peter know he is a credit to you, and so is Steve Fish. Many thanks!

EQUANS

Phil & Steve completed the task safely and professionally. A site induction was completed, and a safety briefing was held before work began. Work was carried out safely and to a high standard, and site rules were always followed. An end-of-task briefing was given with an explanation of findings and recommendations for improvements. Biffa Teesside will retain the services of BGS for all work on on-site roller shutter doors.

Biffa Teesside

I just wanted to drop to a line to thank you for your help on Friday. I know you don’t currently look after the barriers at MK, but you were a huge help. On Friday, when a very aggressive DHL driver became threatening, and I couldn’t free his truck from the barrier, you came straight around to help me. I really couldn’t have resolved the situation without your help.

You went above and beyond to support me, remaining calm while the driver was losing his temper and becoming unreasonable. Thank you once again.

Scania

Thank you for a year of excellent service; your engineers have been excellent, as has been the general service we have received from your team.

SPIE Facilities

Thank you for getting your engineers to site so quickly to look at our front doors. The lads did a great job with them and managed to get all 4 doors operating correctly.

CBRE Facilities

Thank you for today. We had a shutter serviced and a barrier repaired and we are incredibly happy with the results. Great job done by the lads who attended.

Biffa

After experiencing issues with the electrics on our front door, we called BGS. Their engineers were professional, friendly and efficient. They completely replaced the electrics in our ailing front door. The man in charge, Connor was very polite and helpful. Would highly recommend.

Monkseaton Library (North Tyneside Council)

We requested a visit from the BGS team and were delighted to receive great service today. They attended the site and resolved the issue with no issues. We were so pleased with their efforts, that we’re now exploring the possibility of setting up a maintenance service contract for our assets on site.

ROBBIE HAMMOND | CBRE LIMITED

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the first class service we received from your team on Saturday 19th February 2022. The work was executed professionally and efficiently under somewhat adverse conditions. We now have peace of mind that the gate conforms to a safer standard, along with an improved appearance.

 

Thank you for the help and assistance you have given to make this work.”

Russ- Grange Truck Park

Thank you for being flexible and very supportive to our needs- BGSs involvement has been a bonus for us

Stephen Hughes | Kettle Produce Ltd

Can I just say a big thanks to the engineer that we had on site, fantastic job and service.

Dave Clark | DLI Engineering LTD

Just want to share with you the excellent service provided by Sam and Steve to get this job complete… the nice word to say about the shutter is that it was tough and a very stressful situation.

Everything that could go wrong did and your team kept the ideas/solutions coming until we finally managed to open back up.

Without them I have no doubt the store would still be closed! They really are an asset to your business. Thanks again

Gareth Burgess | PVH

I just wanted to send an email this morning thanking everyone for the work that was put in over the weekend installing the roller shutter. It is working perfectly, I was kept informed (GWS) which I really appreciate. Once again thanks to all for all the hard work.

JACQUI HEGGIE | CBRE LIMITED

I just wanted to contact you to let you know what excellent service Rob Overend gave to our company. We had an electric gate installed in 2019 and had nothing but trouble. Rob took on our case and managed to turn the situation around from one to a situation where we were kept in the loop on a regular basis until the matter was finally resolved.

I have to say how refreshing it was to talk to a real person who didn’t always give us the answers we wanted to hear but always came back to us in a frank and honest manner. So often we, as customers, want to complain but, in this instance, we felt that his seniors should be aware of the exemplary way in which he conducted himself.

I hope, for the sake of BGS services, that he stays with your company for a very long time.

Sylvia Curtis | SPC Property Development Limited

I just wanted to drop you a line to say I have spoken to Mark Crawford at Maidstone regarding the fire door install yesterday. Mark could not sing your team’s praises enough. He also commented on the quality difference in the doors you have installed. The team adjusted the main front door that had been playing up for some time and now Mark has asked for a quote for another door onsite. Mark was extremely pleased and impressed with the service from BGS.

Thank you and well done!

JULIE DISPAINE | SCANIA

Just to let you know that Peter from BGS attended the branch this morning.

Absolutely delighted to say that (it appears), we have working syphon doors……they just need to pass the 48hr test to say for sure!!

We await replacement of the condemned door as it is a temporary fix, but for now I cannot thank Pete enough for his common sense approach, he looked at all the faults thoroughly, and methodically worked his way through them, with good humour and professionalism.

JOSH LEE | CBRE LIMITED

I would just like to pass on thanks to the engineer who attended New Oxford House yesterday.

Our Auto doors have been playing up for some time and he took the time sort them out for good. it wasn’t a quick job so I appreciate his attitude and his general manor as he came across a nice guy ????

Many Thanks

HARRY | ENGIE

I would just like you to pass on my thanks to Dave and Brian for their prompt attendance to this morning’s call out at Exchange Plaza.

Their repair work was excellent and carried out in a professional and courteous manner especially when having to manually raise and lower the shutter door for the tenants entering and exiting the car park whilst carrying out the repair work.

Much appreciated and many thanks again.

JOHN | CBRE LIMITED

This is just a quick email to express our thanks for the Roller Door that has been installed on our new office building, especially in the current climate. The guys have done an excellent job and it is ideal for what we need.

Once we get back to having hospitality opened it would be great to have you along.

FINLAY MCLEAN NOBLE | CHAIRMAN / SECRETARY | FRASERBURGH FOOTBALL CLUB

Really appreciate your prompt response to getting Jimmy on site this evening.

We have not managed to rectify the issue this evening. We will wait for a full report before moving forward with this and look for a long term resolution to this issue. We will need this as soon as possible. Jimmy really put in a great effort tonight to get this rectified, and it would be great for him to get the positive feedback from this callout as it is not often that engineers arrive to site last minute on a Friday and do everything they can to rectify the fault.

BRYN | CANARY WHARF

Just a quick comment from my side. The Engineers Levi and Nick were thoroughly professional from Start to Finish, the standard of work was great, and they were extremely helpful on site and co-operative.

LIAM PUFFITT | SWINDON DESIGNER OUTLET

Many thanks for the service provided, the engineers were really good and have done a great job.

TONY ALDRIDGE | GEFCO FORWARDING

Can I just take this chance to comment on your fitter, Jimmy, that attended on Friday?

What a charming, professional and knowledgeable chap. I was helping him all day in the scissor lift (all Covid precautions were observed) and I was very impressed by him and his conscientious approach to the work. A real breath of fresh air from a lot of engineers I’ve worked alongside in the past.

As we require further work in the future may I request that it be Jimmy who attends? Thanks again for getting us out of this jam

PHIL BROUGH | BENTLEY ADVANCED MATERIALS

We find ourselves in a quite extraordinary situation, whereby we are collectively responding to the challenges posed by Coronavirus pandemic whilst still providing essential services to our customers.
However, I am very pleased to be able to announce that North Tyneside Council ‘s Housing Property and Construction Service has passed two important safety milestones recently.
We have:

Achieved 1 million hours of work without a RIDDOR accident being recorded
Achieved a full calendar year, to the end of October 2020, without a RIDDOR accident being recorded.

We could not have achieved any of this without your help. Your professionalism, dedication, and willingness to help in the most challenging circumstances, is a testament to you, your company and all your employees. We rely on you to provide us with the expertise we need, and you have not let us down.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you most sincerely for your sterling efforts in the past year and we look forward to continuing our relationship in the future.

ALAN KERR | NORTH TYNESIDE COUNCIL

Just a quick message to express my sincere gratitude for your response, whilst we are not an account holder your engineer arrived around 8.00AM and has resolved the issues. We operate a similar business which supports 24/7 operations and I know it isn’t easy but we really would have came unstuck if it wasn’t for your support and I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate it.

JACK PLEAVIN | CEO AND OWNER | PLEAVIN POWER

Two lads who came this morning were brilliant and fixed the gate in no time. No need to mention, we’re very happy with the service.

MARCIN RADYMSKI

Just thought I would ping you a quick email to let you know that all the guys you have sent onto site this week have been absolutely fantastic. I cannot fault any of them in the slightest and it was a complete pleasure to deal with them. They were helpful and courteous and even when I could not let them on to site, they were willing to go out of their way to help.

As for yourself sending over the documentation I needed and the scissor lift was removed from site virtually as soon as the guys were finish, it is just a breath of fresh air to deal with people similar to our good selves, who understand if we all work together it is just so much easier. Pass on my praise to the guys if you can and keep a hold of the site number – fingers crossed for next years service!!!

JOANNA CAIRNS | OPERATIONS MANAGER | BIFFA WASTE SERVICES

Just wanted to pass my thanks on for a job well done at Roberts Road, EMD. My engineer Craig Barlow noted the engineers from BGS went above and beyond to complete the works today and was very impressed with both their attitude and skill level.

BRAD KAYE | GLOBAL WORKPLACE SOLUTIONS – CBRE

Quick email to say thank you for completing the service here at Cannock on our roller shutter door. Please can you thank the 2 guys (John and Tom) for there hard work. It was great to have 2 guys like them completing their roles / tasks with no issues to report.

IAN WATSON | APC OVERNIGHT

I would just like to say how happy I am with the service from Raihmel at Chapelfied East. We have had a constant issue at this property which resulted in numerous call outs and angry Residents but still went undetected from previous Contractors used. Raihmel attended for the 1st time last week (very promptly I must say) and found the fault straight away. Again thank you for your very satisfactory service to Watsons.

KERRY WINN | WATSONS PROPERTY

The engineer did a great job today and he did give us the impression that we have made a good choice of starting working with BGSs Services.

PEDRO DASILVA | GREENVALE AP

Further to our conversation, can I once again say what a great set of lads you sent to us. They had a we will fix it no matter what attitude and did an absolute fantastic job even though the job wasn’t really in there working area. Please pass on my thanks.

GARETH LOCKWOOD | NIXON HIRE

I cannot thank you enough for the professional and prompt attention shown to myself tonight, both of you are a credit to yourselves and your company – exactly the people companies need who want to succeed. If you can either let me have ant relevant e-mail address I would like to pass this up the chain in the hope that at some point your are both recognised for the exceptional service levels that I witnessed and benefitted from evening/night.

PAUL COLLINS | HARTLEY SERVICES

Our client have informed me today that they are extremely pleased with the work done on-site and, despite the unforeseen delays they are delighted with the level of service that they received from BGSs on this work order with specific mentions to the guys professionalism during the install and their attention to safety.

CHRIS CLOSE | CBRE LIMITED

I would like to take this opportunity to extend my own and my teams personal thanks for the top notch professional service we received from your team on our recent project at JT Doves in Consett. Which is now open and successfully operating.

NICK TURNBULL-MURPHY | TEAM BUILD CONSTRUCTION

Chris the engineer who attended today to rectify issues with the large folding gate. Carried out a fantastic job, he was effective, efficient, friendly and helpful. For the first time since the gates have been in use since May 16 I have now witnessed the gates to close really smoothly and quietly. He really took the time to make sure the job was done right with the best possible outcome. He is a credit to your company, Thank you for sending him here today.

ESSENTIAL LIVING

I would just like to pass on our praise and appreciation for Jonny and the service we received from BGS last Friday. As I explained to Barry we have struggled to have all of our auto/high speed door needs met on site. On Friday we had Jonny attend site to fix ‘A’ high speed door and by the time he left site he had 4 doors up and running for us! We have never been able to achieve this with any of the door contractors used in the past and a lot of that comes down to Jonny’s attitude and professionalism. Each time I asked him about another door he was always keen and enthusiastic to crack on and get it going, the last time was as he was driving off site but he still parked up and came back in to look at the door. The engineering team from Accord that we work on behalf of were very impressed by the work carried out and the fact that he didn’t look at a door step back and say its going to cost ‘X’ amount and take several weeks for parts etc. As discussed with Barry that they are keen to have BGS carryout other work on normal auto doors as they are happy in the knowledge it will get fixed. Once again thankyou and all involved are more than happy to work together going forward.

PAUL GODFREY | AIRCARE SERVICES LTD

We appreciate BGS’s continued support, our Technical Manager now Director has been delighted with the communication and work to date.

KAREN LOWRIE | FIFE COLLEGE

Just a quick thanks for your prompt attention to Birley Fire Station doors today.

TIM TOULSON | SOUTH YORKSHIRE FIRE & RESCUE

Thank you for the quick response today the lads who turned up did brilliantly and managed to get the shutter operational.

DAVID GRICE | UK SERVICES

Just wanted to drop you guys both a note to thank you for your help on all of our recent collaborations. The call out last night was dealt with seamlessly at every stage and I can’t commend you both highly enough for your assistance. Having had some serious issues with suppliers over the last few years it is a massive relief to know that I have a top, reliable contractor that we can turn to in this region. Our other regions still struggle with suppliers however, they are not my region so I don’t care about them!

Unfortunately our hands are tied when it comes to issuing the service contracts for this account and we can’t use our preferred suppliers which would undoubtedly be yourselves and should the opportunity to do so arise, we will do so. Having said that, please rest assured, all remedials raised from any servicing on doors, dock levellers and gates will come to you guys. Thanks for your help.

CHRIS CLOSE | TECHNICAL SUPERVISOR | GLOBAL WORKPLACE SOLUTIONS – CBRE

Just want to say the men who fitted the Kitchen Shutter at Scalby were very good. They cleaned up with no mess left – you couldn’t tell they had been. They have said they think someone is coming to put trim round if needed down the side. Well mine is as only just had it decorated this year.

MARK HAGUE | INDEPENDENT LIVING COORDINATOR | BROXTOWE BOROUGH COUNCIL

Roller shutter has been fitted. Very good. I’ll be in touch with other shutters to fit over next few weeks, months. Please pass over my good report to Mick and Phil your engineers. Very professional job. Speak soon. Thanks.

LEE ATCHINSON | DURHAM UNIVERSITY MINOR WORKS

Hope you had a good weekend. Thank you for sorting out the broken door for us so quickly, it really is appreciated. I would just like to add that Ben was a cracking guy, very helpful and friendly member of your team. We are always on the lookout for new companies to work with and I have now passed your details on to our property manager as we have been having some issues with our previous door repair company. Thanks again for your help!

LUKE ROGERS | FLEET MANAGER | A.W. LYMN

Thanks to the BGS team that attended on the 17th October to fix the North revolving door. The new plan that they came up with saved a lot of time & money and the door is working perfectly now. Thanks very much.

SARAH ALLISON | BUILDING MANAGER | CBRE

Just a quick email to thank you both for the service that your guys have given us over the past couple of weeks, Davie and Stewart who managed to repair our speed door in challenging conditions with high winds and blizzard conditions. Also today with Davie again and Robert this time, who have managed to save one of our internal doors from the skip with a sound and robust solution of re-securing the door back into its position. Just like to pass on my gratitude for a stellar service from yourselves, no doubt there will be plenty more call outs in the near future.

JOE BEATTIE | SITE SERVICES AND FACILITIES TECHNICIAN | HIGHLAND SPRING GROUP

Thanks to BGS for their help yesterday. The main access control door stopped working which would mean we either couldn’t get tenants into the building or it would be left unsecured. The guys stayed all day to come up with a solution which has meant its now working perfectly.

SARAH ALLISON | BUILDING MANAGER | PROPERTY MANAGEMENT FM – CBRE

Just wanted to take the time to say that the guy who came to repair the door number 7 was very professional and had a good attitude and stayed on until the job was done and never gave up even with a 2.5 hour drive ahead of him. He effected a temporary repair with a little assistance from us but the door will require repairing properly shortly.

GRAHAM CLUCAS | PROJECT MANAGER | WYKES ENGINEERING CO LTD

Please know that at the end of the supply chain, a huge amount of people rely on our joint efforts: our gelatin and collagen are an essential ingredient for medical capsules, patient recovery foods, food manufacturing, etc. Your keeping up the supply means that we can continue to produce. Hence, simply and sincerely: a word of gratitude. Thank you for your hard work and courage, and for our continued partnership. Together we are able to assume our responsibility. That is certainly something to be grateful for in these trying times.

WIM POOT | EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT | PB LEINER

I would like to take this opportunity to send a note of thanks for the response that you and your company have undertaken with respect to the door failure within our Pharma Manufacturing Suites. I would like to highlight both Craig Dawkins and Carl Pearce for their assistance in dealing with this breakdown which could have had drastic effects upon our business.

I would like to pass on in particular my thanks and admiration to Craig’s ultra-calm, professional, courteous and dogged determination not to be beaten but also his innovative approach to try numerous options to overcome the problem that we / he encountered over the last few days.

Please pass on my sincere thanks to Craig and Carl and elevate this to whoever in your organisation you feel would be relevant to do so.

My deepest thanks once again.

PAUL MARR | ENGINEERING MANAGER | LALEHAM

Please know that at the end of the supply chain, a huge amount of people rely on our joint efforts: our gelatin and collagen are an essential ingredient for medical capsules, patient recovery foods, food manufacturing, etc. Your keeping up the supply means that we can continue to produce. Hence, simply and sincerely: a word of gratitude. Thank you for your hard work and courage, and for our continued partnership. Together we are able to assume our responsibility. That is certainly something to be grateful for in these trying times.

CHRIS DAVEY | INTERSERVE

The first thing to consider is the response from BGS, i called them on Wednesday once i reviewed the information that had been given our contract as tier 1 supplier, The same day i received all their RAMS and good communication.The following day they attend to carry out a site audit , Very good response from them all around.The price quoted seems very reasonable from my point of view as our existing supplier were very expensive whatever they did for us. Then the cost of a scissor lift was added to every job!
We would have to wait far too long for our existing supplier to attend also, Luckily for Veolia Stoke BGS have a depot in Stoke, which is a win win for us.

LEE HOLLINS | VEOLIA

Just to deliver some much needed praise for your Engineer Robert this morning, I could relate to him being an Electrician myself & together we have resolved the gate issues we have had the gate is now working correctly & this has thankfully stopped quite a bit of pressure for myself.

Can you again pass on my thanks to him & hopefully you can assign him as our local engineer going forward?
