    Gas meter box install including lintel, damp proof membrane and weep vents.

    Posted 30 January

    Steve was quick to give a quote and arrange a date for the work to be completed. He had to move the date at the last minute but we understand that these things happen and so were fine to move it two days later. Steve came, did the work, tidied up and removed all of the waste and left it neat and tidy. The job was ton cut a hole in the wall of the garage to fit a new gas meter box - this was done neatly and to spec. It has been inspected by the local gas board who are installing the supply who have given it the thumbs up!

    Lintel Installation

    Posted 16 January

    Steve and his team installed a missing lintel about a door and window on my extension. They were accommodating and made preparations to work despite limited access to the back the house. They were friendly and professional, and the work was completed quickly with no mess.

    Professional and helpful

    Posted 21 November 2025

    We noticed cracks suddenly appearing in our walls recently. Steve was prompt to come around and give us advice, such as bringing an engineer to assess the situation and not panicking about it. Steve liaised with the engineer to discuss the remedial work and then allocated a week to do the job. We thought they were very professional, they cleaned up after themselves, and brought in a plasterer to repair some of the damage, making things simpler for us. We're very happy with the results, the communication, and we thought the price was reasonable. Highly recommended.

    Made a BIG job look simple.

    Posted 21 November 2025

    Steve and his team were quite simply, fantastic to deal with. The entire team was always friendly and accommodationg for any needs that we had. The job itself was a large remodelling of the internals of a 1950's home. It was a much bigger job than we were anticipating, and the team made it look as if it was childs play. Steve also arrange all trades through his network and we have no negativity towards any of them. The 3 months of interruption wa barely felt and we have been left with a pretty impressive kitchen. We would thoroughly recommend dealing with Steve, you won't regret it.
