10 Put in new Soakaway and realign roof gutter
Posted 11 December
Very impressed with Les and Co. They arrived early on the agreed day and got straight down to digging the hole for the new Soakaway after first protecting the lawn. After completing that they turned to the roof gutter which needed removing both down pipes and placing them in better positions and realigning the gutter. The work was carried out with the highest of professionalism and knowledge and I have no hesitation in recommending Les and his company to anybody that needs a decent job doneVerified reviewerJob location: BN27 10 The company is friendly and helpful

10 Replace wooden retaining wall
Posted 23 October
Job location: TN38Sometimes you're lucky to find a tradesperson that genuinely will stay in your phone book for all the right reasons and Les is one of those guys. He turned up when he said he would, knew what he was on about and quoted a fair price for the work and expertise he has. The job was done promptly and tidily and is exactly what we wanted. Will definitely go back to Les when other jobs are needed. 10 Replacement drive gulley.
