Repair to Flint wall that was coming away from the other parts of the wall. Bad water damage and was beginning to crumble away. The honest builder took part of the wall down and rebuilt adding helibars and specialist lime. Very impressive work.Verified reviewerJob location: SO3210 Wall repair

Job location: SO22Very good work, highly recommended.10 Renovation of flint wall
Posted 29 August
Darren (the honest builder) restored a 150 year old dry flint wall for us which was in poor condition. He did an absolutely marvellous job, bringing lots of ideas about how to do it best and working quickly and tidily. We could not be happier with his work, his approach and his value for money. We will definitely be using him again and recommending him widely.Verified reviewerJob location: SO2110 Repointing house and replacing three lintels

Darren did an excellent job and I would recommend 100 percent. The work was carried out very efficiently, arrived on time every morning and everything left tidy at the end of each day. Kept me up to date on progress and gave a very fair quotation.Verified reviewerJob location: SO3110 Darren took up my old driveway and laid down a gravel one

Darren was great, quote did not change, he was very professional and each day I returned from work whilst the work was being undertaken my drive was tidy. He explained what he would be doing, when the skip would arrive etc. He undertook the work within the timeframe. Kept in touch with me throughout from my first contact to accepting the quote to confirming the date he would start the work. Would certainly recommend.Verified reviewerJob location: SO51
