    Eye for detail, reliable, friendly!

    Posted 06 January

    We had a great experience working with Richard to complete our kitchen renovation with some structural changes. Richard has high standards for his work, which is reflected in the end result (which was lovely!). He has a wide range of skills, meaning he could deal with all the inevitable problems that came up during the works (as they always do). He is professional and communicates well, and always tidied up when he left. Overall, I'd highly recommend Richard!

    I hired Rich for a ceiling repair - He was great at communication throughout the project, hired friendly tradespeople to assist with the job, and finished the project to a high standard. A great company, and I would definitely hire again. Thank you!

    Bathroom refit

    Posted 22 June 2025

    Richard completed a bathroom refit for us. He took out bath and replaced with a lovely big shower. Tiled the whole room, helping with our design and choices. And even fitted a new door. Everything was explained along the way and was completed on time. We are very pleased

    House rebuild and extension

    Posted 15 April 2025

    Richie has been working for us for 18 months. His work has included a full renovation including new extension, fitting a new kitchen, new bathrooms, laying oak floors throughout the house, and lots of bespoke carpentry. His quality of work, attention to detail and reliability are all outstanding. He hasn’t missed a day’s work for any unscheduled reason and we trust him implicitly.
