The two lads upgrading the system have been absolutely brilliant. Their customer service skills are excellent – they accommodated every customer living in the building. They have done a really good job; they were very polite and cleaned up after themselves every day. Nothing seemed to be a problem to them. They are both a credit to Westmorland Fire and Security.”
