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 & repairsVerified reviewerJob location: DT610 Underpinning and rebuilding stone wall

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.Verified reviewerJob location: DT60 Garden

Spoke to Trader on the phone a on Friday, and confirmed that he had had done a similar job recently and could do it again, no problem. he agreed to come round on 29th April @4pm. Called him on Monday to confirm the appointment, he never replied, didn't turn up without even letting me know, did not reply again, i rang the following day and left a message, saying that i would make a complaint to checkatrade if i did not hear back from him, which i did not want to do. 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 myVerified reviewerJob location: DT610 Repair Garden Wall

All work carried out as quoted to a very high standard at a reasonable price. Site was left clean & tidy. Martin did a very good job both visits on time and when he said he would start and finish. Our tenant and his neighbours were very happy with him and no complaints what so ever. We will use Martins services again and highly recommend him.Verified reviewerJob location: EX2410 New Concrete Slope
Posted 14 December 2024
Job location: DT6This is the second time I have asked Martin Holmes to do work for me. The previous job was a shed base his work was excellent. This time it was a concrete slope leading to a private pathway . Firstly the description of what he was going to do was very clear. The new slope he built was first class to the extent some of my neighbours have said impressed with it even my neighbours 5 year old son. Martin is a very polite man and easy to do business with.

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
