Somlo Antiques, Piccadilly Arcade

"I have known Mr Russell Teskey of 36 Dudley Road, Richmond, Surry TW9 2EH, for a period of approximately of fourteen years. During this time he has carried out professional carpentry in both my private residence and on my business premises."

"I have found him to be both reliable and trustworthy on all occasions and would therefore have no hesitation in giving him a good reference."
George Somlo.

The Merlin School

"Russell Teskey has worked for us over a period of more than 20 years and we gladly add our names to the many who will vouch for his superb craftsmanship as a builder and carpenter."

"But aside from that his complete reliability and trustworthiness are most certainly worth acknowledgement. Never over the years have we suffered from discrepancies between our agreements at the out-set of the work and his final bill, nor have we been let down by work over-running the completion date. This was particularly relevant to extensive maintenance work at the Merlin School, Putney, which had to be completed for safety reasons during the school holidays. For 13 years which I was headmistress of that school Russell Teskey was responsible for major alterations and repairs there. It is a pleasure to vouch for his good character."
Jane Addis - Retired head of Merlin School, Putney.

Hancocks & Co Jewellers Ltd.

"The subject of this reference, Mr. Russell Teskey, has carried out over the years a lot of work within our premises. He and his partner Mr. Whitehead were given the contract to refurbish, rebuild and decorate our showrooms and these were carried out to a very high standard. The contract was in the region of £20,000 at the time and the work was carried out to our entire satisfaction. some years previously Mr. Teskey had been responsible with Mr. Whitehead for designing and building and building showcases, bookcases, and installing suspended ceilings again to a very high standard."

"The interior of our showroom makes use of mahogany and other such hard woods to a very high degree together with brass fittings to all doors etc."

"So satisfied was I with Mr. Teskey's work that some seven years ago he also carried out some major works within my house which involved taking down a former exterior wall, installing an RSJ and designing and constructing windows of the period 1930 to go alongside the main fascia of my house. Again the work was carried out to my entire satisfaction."

"I have no hesitation in recommending Teskey's work which has always been to the highest standard of traditional British craftsmanship."
D.J.Callaghan.

RTZ Group

"I write in support of Russell Teskey of 36 Dudley Road, Richmond, Surrey, TW9 2EH, United Kingdom."

"I have known Russell Teskey for six years in the UK both personally and in his capacity as a master tradesman. During this period he has done several jobs of work on my former house and more lately on my new house in Richmond, Surrey. Mr Teskey is an expert at his work and all his work was completed with satisfaction."

"Should he be given permission to settle in Melbourne, Australia it is my intention to employ him in the rehabilitation of my Melbourne home after I return from my secondment from CRA Limited (Australia) to RTZ Limited (UK)"

"Russell Teskey is honest, hardworking, completely trustworthy and would be an ideal citizen in Australia. I can recommend him unequivocally."

Yours faithfully,
