Our ROC (Revitalise Our Community) Scheme encompasses taking the old and making it new, aiming to modernise community areas where we work.  Working in partnership with Town and Country Housing Group, we jointly highlighted this playground for renewel.  Previously, this area was open & unprotected from the elements, but more worringly; the local wildlife/dog population.  We offered to clean up the playground and provide the fencing, encapsulating the whole of the playground, providing some experienced operatives and our services, free of charge. The result as pictured, has now provided a safer environment for local children and parents to make use of the park and everything it has to offer. Ensuring that we continue to improve areas and communities that we work in, throughout the UK.

I live at number 35 ****** Close, Sheerness. I want to say that your employess at George Jones done a fantastic job of painting and decorating the exterior of my property and others, though this was standard and needed the effort your guys went to was impressive. They found that my wall was very dangerous and could of seriously harmed someone if it fell down, which could have been anytime. They reported this to both Amicus and yourselves and fixed my wall. They spents about 3 days doing so and they were always very polite and upbeat about the job ahead. The wall is brilliant. I was really pleased with their service, they went that extra mile thats what we want out of employees and yours certainly done that. Not only did they renew my wall but also my gate that was unsafe to. I was so grateful for their service. They were a plesaure to be around and overall im extremley satisfied with the service/job they done.
