“I first visited Krystian when I was still dreaming of converting my van. He was patient, showed me options, priced fairly, and offered no hard sell. Through the conversion process I was kept up to date and found him very honest and trustworthy. Post-conversion I have also had support whenever I have needed to ask a question. 5 stars is not high enough!”
