We needed some urgent remedial work completed on our Victorian property. These guys came highly recommended by my partners work colleague.  I arranged for Dean to visit the property to see the issue and obtain a quotation for the work.  Communication from Dean prior to his visit was great, he arrived on time and gave his honest opinion and explained the work required to resolve the issue. Dean was able to work within my timescale and the guys completed the  job to a very high standard.  It's not often I find traders so passionate about their industry, but these guys were. Highly recommended.

Fantastic service from enquiry to completion.

As a couple in our 80s we were treated with respect throughout this survey and the work carried out.  It is refreshing these days to be able to communicate directly with all the employees in this family run business.  We would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.  Our thanks to everyone concerned. 

Internal damp proofing works, some localised pointing and external masonry waterproofing. 

Received an email from this company saying that they did not possess the appropriate department to deal with the problem outlined, and offered alternative company to contact.

Advice on damp

Dean came out very quickly to look at our problem area and identified the issue. He gave us a very prompt quote, with which we were very happy. 

Keiran and Ryan came and did the work of replacing the coping stones and were very tidy and efficient,  the work being done to a very high standard. 

Very pain-free from start to finish with excellent communication throughout.

Would not hesitate to use again and would recommend to anyone.

Water leak

After returning from holiday to a damp mess following heavy rainfall, Dean and his amazing team arrived at every appointment, from intro to job completion on time, with a plan, and treat our house with the upmost respect.  Unbeknown to them they had a highly stressed client going through cancer treatment!  Yet I never had to mention that once as they were just so considerate in doing the job so well.

I cannot recommend Dean and his team highly enough!

FROM THE OUTSET FROM THE GENTLEMAN WHO CAME TO INSPECT THE WORKS AND THE OPERATIVE WHO CARRIED OUT THE WORK, THEIR FIEST THOUGHT WAS FOR US THE CUSTOMER, THE QUOTE WAS DISCUSSED, WHAT WAS NEEDED TO BE DONE, TIME SCALE RELATING TO THE WORKS, THE LADY ON THE END OF THE PHONE WHO I SPOKE TO WAS HELPFUL, THE GUY WHO DID THE WORK ANSWERD ANY QUESTIONS THAT I HAD, SAFEY WAS GOOD.  WE HAD TO HAVE WORK CARREID OUT IN AN OUTSIDE SHED AT THE SAME TIME AND THAT THERE WOULD BE A TIME SCALE WHEN IT WOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE FOR ANY ONE PERSON OR ANIMAL TO ENTER.  ALL ROUND EXCELLENT.

PRACTICAL AND KNOWLEGABLE
