    Custom built a timber and felt roof for our existing pergola.

    Posted 18 July

    James (assisted by his sons) provided a highly competitive quote for an unusual project. We required a custom built roof for our pergola. He reinforced the timber structure and covered with ply and felt. Great work ethic and extremely easy to work with, being punctual and friendly throughout. The job, including a replacement fence post was completed within the estimated time and finished to a very high standard. We an extremely happy with the end result that was finished on time and precisely to the estimated budget!

    Full driveway re-design

    Posted 16 June

    James and his team had quite a task on their hand with our drive. It was incredibly sloped with a large grassed area we wanted made into a more accessible driveway. James and his team removed over 70 tonnes of dirt and rubble in the end, leaving us with a beautifully paved driveway and some retaining walls for raised beds just as we hoped. James and the team really listened to our design, gave input and checked in along the way. Their work was good quality and they were always prompt and great at communicating. I would strong recommend them.

    Replacement bricks, repointing and inside utility ceiling replacement

    I have found James very reliable. His prices are fair and he has always done a great job on my house. He is clear and does what he says he will do and when. Plus he left my home and garden clean and tidy after the work!
