Fitting wall ties, repair to cracked brickwork and pebbledash rendering

We need repair of cracked brickwork in a section of an external wall that, for some reason, had not been rendered in keeping with the rest of the house. Paul was the only tradesman who when he came to give a quote actually took an interest in why that section was different to the rest of the house and what had caused cracks only in that part of the wall. The other people who came out just had a quick look at the wall and quoted for repointing (one company just asked for pictures of the wall and did not come out to see it!). Paul inspected the bricks at rendered/unrendered threshold and also checked state of wall ties. And after advice from a wall tie company, we had Paul fit new wall ties along the whole flank, stitch and repair cracked brickwork, repoint, and finally apply pebbledash render in keeping with the rest of the house. Thanks to Paul's interest and professionalism we hopefully now have a permanent fix to the problem, which, had we just gone with the repointing suggested by others, would likely have soon re-occured. We would recommend Paul's company to others and happily use again ourselves.

Replace path, alter shed and expand flagged area to provide access and storage for mobility scooter.

Paul did what was asked for at a reasonable price, managing the job in Southampton with instruction from Worthing. It will make a big difference to my Mum and she is very pleased with it.

Refurbishment of flat garage roof with Firestone Rubber

Delayed because of the weather, Paul worked without stop throughout Saturday to complete the recovering of mine and my neighbours roof. Very satisfied with the excellent work and the cost for the work.

Paul was very organized, friendly, and shows a lot of experience. We needed some repointing done which he did quickly and tidily. Will happily use again.

Removal of a chimney breast and stack.

After the removal of the chimney breast from one of the bedrooms Paul and his builders were able to make use of a small amount extra flooring to repair the missing floor section, which given the probability of alternatives I was very happy with. Unfortunately with any job like this no matter how clean a builder is the dust that comes out of a chimney is impossible to contain. Overall I was happy with the work done and the price was less than others had managed to quote as well.

Construction of partition wall

Superb. Paul and his colleagues were asked to create a partition wall for a new bedroom, including the relocation of a period doorway, minor electrical works and plastering. Paul's huge experience was apparent from our initial meeting and was reflected in the quality of the workmanship and attention to detail (including the exact matching of period architraves/ skirting). Everyone involved took pride in their work, were totally reliable and considerate (we have a young family). We were always kept up to date with progress and wouldn't hesitate to contact Paul again about future projects. We're delighted - thank you!

Block paving and path

Well priced work and very good result of block paving to a high standard. Work cost more than anticipated but only because we requested more during the process. Took slightly longer than anticipated to finish but were kept informed throughout the process. Would recommend and will use again for another property.

Construction of two story rear extension and lean-to along side of property

Paul and his team are highly experienced tradesmen who worked tirelessly to transform our house with a minimum disruption for us as we continued to live here. The finished house is fantastic and we could not recommend Harris Building and Maintenance higher. We would definitely employ again should needs arise. Paul has proved an invaluable help to us throughout this process and has most definitely proved to be excellent value for money.

Repair collapsing rain water surface drain, replace steel fire door, rebuild damaged internal block wall, replaster and make good.

I needed a few repair jobs doing around our industrial site. For all 3 jobs, Paul's estimates were very competitive. The work was carried out on time with little disruption or mess, which could have been a real problem as we have a very busy office and warehouse environment. I am totally satisfied with the work Harris Building and Maintenance carried out and would have no problem using them again within our company or at my own private address.
