    Courtyard Patio and raised beds

    Posted 14 January

    Harry and his team laid a porcelain patio in our courtyard, along with raised beds and required drainage. We found Harry to be very knowledgeable, at the planning stage he listened to our requirements and advised and provided mock up pictures of the different finishes to help us decide . The work was carried out to a high standard and completed within the time and quotation stated. We are very happy with our new courtyard and very confident in recommending Grit & Graft

    Harry and his team have just completed a new 6ft fence at the bottom of the back garden and I am more than pleased with the result. The standard of their work is excellent and I would have no hesitation in recommending them. Harry takes great care in the planning the work.

    Excellent work from Grit and Graft

    Posted 24 November 2025

    Grit and Graft did a fantastic job laying our new patio. The workmanship is excellent—everything looks clean, tidy, and exactly how we envisioned it. The team worked efficiently, kept the area neat throughout, and completed the project exactly as quoted with no surprises. We’re really pleased with the final result and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Grit and Graft to anyone looking for quality patio work.

    Disappointing and perplexing

    Posted 18 September 2025

    Arrived promptly, sent follow up email with photos of materials, to which I responded, then simply disappeared from view, despite me sending further email and text. Could at least have told me they fid not wish to take on work, which is perfectly acceptable.
