Tony and his team did extensive building works to our bungalow which had an array of damp (wall, ceiling and floor) issues in the bathrooms and bedrooms. From the initial consultation to the final inspection, Tony was professional, efficient and reliable. He was also easy to communicate with and open to discussing changes and took the time to explain the process. We highly recommend him for any project, big or small.Verified reviewerJob location: PE2610 Installation of patio, drainage, fencing, driveway and landscaping

Job location: PE26Tony completed extensive outside works to our property. He met with us initially, agreed a price, schedule of works and specification. Tony was friendly and approachable throughout. He always answered the phone when we called him. Tony takes pride in his work and all work was completed to a very high standard. The project took a little longer than expected due to weather constraints as he completed the work over the winter. I would highly recommend Tony.10 Fences, patio, Outside sitting area, Garden shed, Greenhouse.

I found Mr Thomas a most affable and honest gentleman. Prompt to start work and exceptionally hard working, I actually worried that he was overdoing it. All his work has been completed to a very high standard. I am exceptionally impressed and would not hesitate to recommend him or have him back to do other works.Verified reviewerJob location: PE2610 New Garden
Posted 13 February
Tony and his team completed a complete re-vamp of our garden, removing the old decking, providing new decking, artificial grass and new paving from a very tired and worn out looking garden. From the first step Tony was excellent, sharing his ideas and giving us a vision we was very excited about as we wasn't 100% sure what we wanted. The communication skills throughout the project was excellent, giving us updates every step of the way. More importantly the works were completed on time and in budget which was very impressive as there was some unforeseen complications. Thank you Tony!!!Verified reviewerJob location: IG109.67 Replacing kitchen floor
Posted 12 February
Company were contracted to retile kitchen floor. We found the subflooring was a mess which is why our tiles were cracking. Like, an old boiler waste filled with sand, electrical wires going nowhere and our heating pipes boarded over and twisted out of shape, layers of plywood not fixed down. Tony remade subfloor to standard, redid heating pipes, and tiles and made good (painting, finishing). workers polite and on time. Tony updated frequently on progress and next steps.Good quality work in all the trades. Confident work done well. Kitchen looks great. Would recommend and rehire.Verified reviewerJob location: IG108.5 Bathroom fitting

We hired Tony to rip out our old bathroom and fit new wall tiles, bath, shower and panel. Tony started the job ASAP, communicated with us every step of the way and was responsive to any questions we had. The job was completed in a timely fashion and we are overall happy with the end result! Thank you!Verified reviewerJob location: CM15
