    Patio laying

    Posted 04 June

    What can I say. They came exactly when they said they would, from quote to actually doing the work. He kept in contact with us for everything, From delivery times of materials to when he would arrive . Everything was left tidy and clean afterwards and the new Patio looks fantastic. Will be using him again for future work. Highly recommend Holmes building & repairs

    Underpinning and rebuilding stone wall

    Posted 29 May

    Excellent - we did not hesitate to get Martin to underpin and rebuild our stone wall as we have always been extremely pleased with his work for us over the last eight years. This work was particularly challenging and we are so grateful to Martin for rebuilding the wall so well and for his advice and good communication. We were away for a few days and Martin sent regular updates, finished the wall and cleared everything away - fantastic.

Told him that if their was a family emergency i would understand and we could move on, only then did he send a text message to my

Hi my name's Martin Holmes and have been running my business since October 2016.Although I had been subcontracting to different companies for year's previous to this.I've been building 12 year's now and love my job. Main reason of starting my business is that I pride myself on customer satisfaction. I have high standards on any work that I do and believe in the saying that if I wouldn't be happy with the work then I wouldn't expect any customer to be either. I believe in having very good contact with any of my customer's. For an example one of my previous customers worked away in London so I kept them up to date by emailing picture's throughout the job. I specialise in stonework which I love doing.Also undertake any building work as well as hard landscaping.Hope to hear from you soon with a free quotation.Kind regards Mr Holmes
