10 Excellent repointing on a tricky limestone property
Posted 22 April
Job location: GL5Gavin repointed our limestone house, which turned out to be quite a tricky job. Some stones needed replacing and there were several non-standard aspects to deal with, but he handled everything really well. The quality of the work is excellent and he was a pleasure to deal with. I’d have no hesitation recommending him. - JJules J
10 High quality repointing work
Posted 31 March
I am extremely happy with the repointing work carried out on my home recently by G J Mines Brickwork. There was one main repair that needed doing, but it was agreed that some smaller less urgent jobs could be carried out on the same visit, as time allowed. Josh worked non-stop and got everything done that was on the list, and the quality of the work is excellent - everything looks great. Communication with Gavin beforehand was very easy - very quick to reply to messages, and I did not have to wait too long for a date to be available for the work. Very happy customer - many thanks Gavin & Josh!Verified reviewerJob location: GL5Response from G J Mines Brickwork

10 Rebuilding/restoring a stone garden wall
Posted 13 March
We had a stone gate post that was leaning precariously towards the street. I sent a description on checkatrade and Gavin got back the same evening. He was very straight forward about the work needed and how much it would cost. We immediately felt reassured that he would do a careful and good job. Communication and tidying the area was good throughout. We are very proud of our newly restored garden wall. Thank you Gavin.Verified reviewerJob location: OX11Response from G J Mines Brickwork

10 Great hardworking guy, quality job, very fair price
Posted 11 March
Fixed our front garden wall beautifully, transforming it from an almost-toppling eyesore to something that neighbours wanted as well. Kept us informed of schedule changes due to bad weather etc. Creative suggestions, admirable industry, tidied up spick and span. Straightforward about prices and expenses. Highly recommended.Verified reviewerJob location: OX11Response from G J Mines Brickwork

10 Excellent repointing
Posted 04 February
Job location: OX14Gavin gave us a reasonable quote for some repointing work on our house and garage together with an estimate for how long the work would take. He turned up promptly and worked steadily in poor weather. The work was completed to a high standard and on time. Sufficiently so that our neighbour has taken Gavin on to do some other work. Gavin was very careful in tidying up and was extremely pleasant at all times. I would recommend him without reservation.Response from G J Mines Brickwork
Brilliant thanks steve
