  • Building a retaining wall of sleepers. Fit heavy duty gate across driveway. Garden maintenance.

    10Verified Review

    It’s been a pleasure dealing with James and his guys. From the initial meeting to discuss the work, through to completion, it’s been a pleasure. The removed an old fence, replaced it with a retaining wall of sleepers. Fitted a heavy duty gate across the driveway, removed some very established shrubs and grasses (bamboo type) and some general garden maintenance.. Great communication, arrived when they said they would, left our place clean and tidy. Highly recommend James and his team for any works and will look to use them again for any future work required.

    James came when he said to quote for the job and was happy to break down 3 separate jobs for us. He explained things to me and returned the quotes the same day at a very competitive price. We went with him and he and his team turned up on the day arranged and got the job done in the agreed time even doing a bit extra to make it look better, all at no extra cost. Can't fault him and his team.

    James and his sons were prompt, helpful and polite. James’ communication is good and he quoted the job quickly after our first correspondence, providing guidance on how the job could be done to fit my requirements and constraints in the garden. I’m really pleased with the work and would highly recommend James and team.
