Very quick and efficient, kept everything tidy and got exactly what we asked forVerified reviewerJob location: CT510 Landscaping turfing and fencing.
Posted 21 October 2024
I needed fencing doing - the whole process was simple, the pricing was given up front per panel which made me comfortable that I could afford it and GBS were very good at explaining my options - concrete posts and gravel boards or wood and explaining the pro & cons of both. Again with the choice of panels. They were very time efficient and the finished job looked great. Same with the turfing, all went smoothly, they started and finished on time and were really helpful throughout the project. And they tidied up after themselves.Verified reviewerJob location: CT510 Sink Hole Sorted! Collapsed well disaster averted
Posted 21 October 2024
I found a small six inch hole in my driveway early Friday morning. I called GBS and Paul was able to come over immediately to safely assess the situation. It turned out the a disused well head had collapsed under my driveway. Within an hour there was a digger on site, the hole was safely exposed and assessed. By 1pm the whole situation was resolved, GBS had obtained the materials at short notice and the hole was filled and securely capped off. Such a relief to have the problem sorted so quickly, especially on a Friday!Verified reviewerJob location: ME1310 New patio and fencing

Excellent team came into redo existing garden. They were great guys who got on with the job. No fuss at all from them even when I tweaked a couple of things. Cleaned up and tidied after each day. Really impressed with how my garden looks now. Would highly recommend them.Verified reviewerJob location: CT510 New small front driveway and path to front of house
Posted 17 August 2024
GBS have completed allot of work for me in the past but this week they completed a small drive and path in record time. My front garden was an overgrown mess and GBS designed and constructed the best solution for that small space. Loved the final result and will definitely be using them again and strongly recommend.Verified reviewerJob location: CT39.5 Lay new decking
