A few years later in 2007, our Long Stratton branch opened enabling us to further expand our coverage into South Norfolk towards Norwich. Since then, the Long Stratton branch has joined our Diss office as market leaders in their respective areas. From the day we first opened our door at the Diss office in 1994, we have striven to be a company that our staff are proud to work for and our teams fully share our understanding of and commitment to, never comprising the personal service that our reputation has been built upon.
