Excellent professional job carried out at my business premises. Gary was knowledgeable and helpful in every aspect of the job, guiding us as to what we needed and what would be beneficial to us as a business, keeping costs down where we could and not overspending in areas we did not need to. The job itself was carried out extremely quickly and efficiently in a very professional manner, no rubbish left, no holes to fill or paint over, just an excellent finish. Gary is also very good in the after service and maintenance of our alarm and CCTV. An all round excellent service, would definitely recommend.
Excellent service from Vortex Fire and Security Solutions. They installed my new wireless alarm system and were professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. They took the time to clearly explain how everything works and made sure I was comfortable using the system before they left. The installation was smooth, the price was great, and the overall service was outstanding. Highly recommend!
