Very nice job done removing an old and re-building a new cupboard in our bathroom to house water tanks and underfloor heating control gear etc. Quoted promptly for the works, gave an estimated time to do the job and then was able to fit us in quicker when a gap appeared in work schedule. Arrived on time, carried out job to high standard and cleared up really well afterwards. Many thanks.

David did some pointing work for us and, unlike several other roofing companies contacted, turned up and carried out the work. In addition the pointing blends in well with existing pointing unlike some done on our neighbours’ roofs. So we are very pleased with the work and will definitely contact David again for roof repairs.

Great experience using the WH Kay business to make new wardrobe doors for us. They were punctual, courteous, very pleasant and friendly, respectful of our home, all cutting done outside so no mess to clear up in our home. Absolutely no hesitation in recommending them, they were exemplary

Mr Kay and his team are friendly and very efficient. More than happy with the quality and value of the works done.

Following storm Arwen in November 2021, we suffered damage to the pantiles on our roof. In several places, tiles had been displaced and broken and there were gaps allowing ingress of rain.
At very short notice considering the widespread damage in the area, David and Alan Kay arranged to come and check the roof and repair where possible.
This they did and spent several hours up ladders removing broken tiles and replacing those with salvaged tiles.
We have now used the company over many years for various tasks and have found them to be excellent workers and would have no hesitation in recommending them.

We had WH Kay back to replace our chimney pot with a vent cowl. As with the last time they attended (to repair and seal our apex tiles) they did an excellent job on time, to budget and to a very high quality. I can't recommend them enough.

Replacing two blown double glazing units in timber framed windows plus some pointing work on exterior brickwork.
David's work was excellent from start to finish, he came promptly to give a quote just before the restrictions were re-imposed, and came to do the work just days after restrictions were lifted. The old units were replaced very quickly (and disposed of), and the frames cleaned and touched up where paint had been dislodged by the works. Everything was left sparkling clean and tidy and in excellent condition. It was great that David was also able to point up a small area of brickwork at the same time.
Delighted with the result and would not hesitate to use David again in future.

The work involved replacing about a dozen ridge tiles on both my roof and garage. The work was first class in every respect and Davy and his brother are obviously very good tradesmen.

We had damage to our roof caused by Storm Arwen. After being let down by our insurance company I tried to find roofers to fix the damage. We left messages with various firms who never returned our calls and a company who said they would look at the damage but never turned up. I found W H Kay on the Trusted Trader website. David spoke to us about the damage, gave us a quote for the work and fixed the damage within a week. The work included removing and replacing a damaged ridge cap and reinforcing clips. He returned our phone calls and emails and turned up when he said he would. We are very pleased with the work and would definitely recommend him.

WH Kay are a local builder in East Lothian. I contacted them for a quote which was carried out quickly & Alan was very helpful & knowledgeable. WH Kay arrived when they said they would, reliable & trustworthy & a very high standard of Finnish. We are delighted with our new flat roof, finishing off inside & working within time & quote. Thank you Alan & team. We wouldn’t hesitate to use you again or recommend to others.
