Absolute joke of a company. Each year they raise their maintenance costs however do not provide any service. I have called every other month for over a year for they to patch the gutters of our property. Whenever they do answer they give false promises of doing their job. We have aspestus falling down on our door steps and nothing is ever done.

I cannot rate this firm highly enough. My account was in credit, due to an oversight on my part. J. Nicholson and Son wrote to tell me as much. Not many companies would do that. I called them and got an answer almost immediately with the promise of a refund to come. I have never had any issues with this company, so was surprised by some of the other reviews.

I'd love to comment on the service but there isn't any. No answer from phones or emails. If only the things you paid for actually got done. Sigh.

Have emailed this company with no response. Called them three times with a promise of a call back but as of yet still waiting. SHOCKING!!

Pretty useless. Largely unresponsive, not able to communicate between residents in emergencies and no out-of-hours support.

Unfortunately I could not rate 0 (I would if I could) as that is more deserving for their service. I have in my time experienced some terrible service but this J Nicholson & Son are by far the WORST! AVOD AVOID - if you have a choice. If you do not have a choice, then check your options with a solicitor as J Nicholson will abuse their their position every chance they get..

Has anyone thought about seeking legal advice in regards to this management company?
From reading the reviews its clear they are not only incapable but corrupt. Look forward to hearing back from people. Thanks

Dreadful service with bunch of liers. Recently bought a property and contacted them being free holders. My solicitor sent all the information before completion and when contacted them they said not having received the paper work, my solcitor shared prooof of sending the paperwork with the person delaing at this company in CC, since then no further commuincation . Called numerous times and sent emails no reply. Not sure why these people are in business when they don't serve their clients. Completely unprofessional and disgusting standards of service.

Scam artists that charge you for work that hasn't been done. No proof of work other than receipts which took over 3 months to generate. Bills have increased over 300% consistently for the last 5 years. If only we could give minus stars, then I'd give 10.
