Glen is an experienced tradesman who goes above and beyond to make sure i was informed and totally happy with what the work he was doing. We had to change the date of commencing the work, which he did no problem. His time keeping keeping was exemplary. Iii would recommend him. And I plan to give him a call if I have any other work to do in the future.Verified reviewerJob location: CO210 Complete large roof canopy replacement with hand made wooden frontage and windows.

Glen was amazing from start to finish. We gave him a huge task to think about but he came up with ideas and we all discussed it together. Arrived on time every day and worked extremely hard. So professional...and his carpentry/brickwork and roofing knowledge is second to none. We now have a huge completely waterproof roof on our outdoor canopy and all the guttering works and looks brand new. It's like a brand new extension. New roof on the brickbuilt shed too. All the carpentry done on site and absolutely perfect. No hidden surprises with cost and all correct to the penny. We are over the moonVerified reviewerJob location: IP1110 Repair of leaky roof
Posted 29 October 2024
After 7 years of a leaky roof and various roofers failing to resolve, Glen saved the day! He quickly identified the issue, put forward a reasonable proposal to fix it, and then carried out the work in time. The repair has been tested through several rainstorms since and has held. I am so grateful to have met Glen and finally fix the problem!Verified reviewerJob location: NW210 Repointing/repair to chimneys on Victorian house

Very happy with work done (two chimneys needing repair / repointing / flashing including on one rebuilt top couple of courses and reinstated chimney pots). Detailed quote given, great communication (including with neighbour - access was needed to neighbours roof to reach far side of chimney).Verified reviewerJob location: CO310 Fixing fence panels and gate
