Millbrook provides a fast, friendly and highly professional service from start to finish. Colin’s wealth of knowledge, experience and expertise in the field of lightning protection is exceptional, and it is clear that he takes great pride in sharing his knowledge with others.

For anyone looking to develop their understanding and experience within the lightning protection industry, I would highly recommend Colin and the team at Millbrook. The support, guidance and professionalism they provide make it an excellent environment for learning and developing your knowledge.

I have found Millbrook to be extremely approachable, knowledgeable and reliable, and I have thoroughly enjoyed working with them. A fantastic company with a genuine commitment to providing a high standard of service.

This course was probably the hardest I’ve had to do with the recording of myself, but colin was there reassure me into believing that I can and could do it. If it wasn’t for colins help I would have passed my NVQ. Although I did the work colin was just as important for me to have qualified.

I would recommend this course to any one who wants to pursue this type of career and the only person I would recommend do to this with would be colin, his knowledge and experience is fornominal. Colin is also probably the easiest person to talk to and get along with providing you put the work in yourself. Again would highly recommend colin.

I recently completed my Level 2 NVQ in Lightning Protection, and I couldn’t have asked for a better assessor than Collin. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive.

Collin took the time to explain everything clearly, gave constructive feedback, and was always approachable whenever I had questions. He made the assessment process straightforward and helped build my confidence throughout the course.

Thanks to his guidance and encouragement, I successfully passed my Level 2 NVQ. I would highly recommend Collin to anyone looking for an assessor who genuinely cares about helping people succeed. Thank you for all your support.

Millbrook First provided all the training materials required and offered support throughout the whole process. Colin was extremely helpful in helping us to not only negotiate our way through the course but in assessing the current condition of our site and even helping to arrange an external contractor to carry out a full site risk assessment. Thanks very much Colin
