Thanks for the weekend, all teams very helpful and professonial, the supervisor is very good on site all the time, both jobs all good.

Please could you pass Affinity’s personal thanks to all the teams involved in the reinstatement and restoration works in the Great North Road Barnet following the 14” burst on Thursday morning. All involved demonstrated commitment, professionalism and dedication to getting the road fully open in the shortest time possible. It was a privilege to have worked with them and they are a credit to us all.

The hard work and effort that every one of your lads put in over this weekend hasn’t gone unnoticed, I would especially like to thank the lads who worked a long shift on Saturday and battled through the continuous heavy downpours of rain.

Well done all. Thanks for the efforts in completing these works that were high profile.

The teams were absolutely outstanding last night, Luton Council where extremely impressed by them. As we are all aware we are under a lot of pressure in Luton currently so this kind of working relationship is key going forward.

I would like to say a huge Thank You and Well Done. Given a complex problem, you have a rare and enviable ability to find a simple solution. I especially appreciate that you always go the extra mile just to accomplish everything before the deadline. Thank you so much for your hard work & dedication.

I just wanted to pass on personally Affinity Water’s thanks for the outstanding work completed in record time on Barnet Hill since Sunday night. Over 600 Sq./M of consequential damage was reconstructed to the very highest of quality standards by your team on site lead superbly by Pat and the support of a dedicated team behind him.

I just wanted to say how much of a positive impression your operative Sean Clarke made on me, both from a personal and a company viewpoint. From my perspective in terms of managing contractors performance, and customer and HA relationships, this sort of positive engagement is so valuable
