    Careful Appraisal, Excellent Work, Transparency Regarding Cost

    Posted 14 December 2025

    Prompt and polite initial contact was followed by a comprehensive review of the problem using a little camera along the pipe. The bad news was then delivered and explained with options and without undue pressure to proceed. We did proceed; the work was carried out and the garden beautifully restored. Very happy with this work and with Dean and Caleb.

    Installation of a new soakaway

    Posted 28 November 2025

    Our previous soakaway failed because it had been poorly installed, so we were looking for a company to do the job properly this time, not the cheapest quote. We are very happy with the work that was carried out. We now have a soakaway with gravel around the membrane wrapped crates to stop mud clogging the soakaway, and a gully to stop debris getting down it and clogging it that way. The only problem we've had is that they put plywood boards down on our drive to protect it from the skip and they didn't come back to take the boards away after the skip was collected despite repeated requests.

    Rain water drains

    Posted 12 November 2025

    We had a rainwater drainage infrastructure that needed replacement. They did a great job, took care of all the licencing, authorisations and approvals needed by the water authorities and local council. Even thought they dug up a massive space, they left the site in pristine condition. Very professional, friendly and knowledgeable team, always arrived on time, engineer Dean even worked on 24th and 26th December!!!! and owner Ashley got involved with project too. They are a great company, and I highly recommend them. I would definitely use them again, should the need is there.
