Various works needed in the garden - fencing that was broken, re pointing some brickwork
10Verified ReviewWe have used Darren several times for various works on our property. As always, Darren’s work was exemplary, fulfilling the brief given to him, and even going beyond the request by fixing a little wooden shed. Darren is a perfectionist, and this is reflected in the work he does. At the end of the job, he said it had gone quicker than he expected and he proposed to knock a substantial amount off the final bill.

Location: TN23Exceptional standard of workmanship
10Verified ReviewI can honestly say this company is the unicorn of all builders! I never knew such fantastic workmanship existed in the building trade. They arrived by 8am every day and worked sometimes until 6pm at night and I mean worked! Absolutely thrilled to bits with every aspect of the job - coving, skirting, media wall built, walls knocked down etc - all done to perfection. Nothing was too much trouble, even sorted out previous builders shortfalls! I cannot recommend them enough and will 100% be having them back again.
Location: TN26Address various water-ingress-related issues on external walls of old barn and indoor re-plastering
10Verified ReviewIt became obvious very quickly that Darren loves his job and that he is very good at what he's doing. The job here was to address various water-ingress-related issues on external walls of a historic converted barn, e.G. Re-pointing, re-build a plinth, re-do brittle brickwork/ragstones, a French drain, and various other issues. Everything was done to our full satisfaction, thereby Darren was always proactive in coming up with clever ideas to address the sometimes quite individual issues we had. Also, excellent communication and very friendly, hence overall 10 out of 10 from us for Darren.

10Verified ReviewExceptional workmanship, Darren never fails to deliver. He takes such pride in his work and it shows in the quality of the end result. He is professional, courteous, punctual and always leaves everything clean and tidy. Would not hesitate to use again or recommend to others.

If I can't do it myself, I'll know someone who can help me do the job. Located in Ashford, I do jobs all over Kent.
I love putting creativity into my brickwork/work and can bring to life any design in mind. The gallery provides examples of jobs I have completed and how they were created.
