    Excellent.

    Having had John excavate chalk in a challenging bank to build a garage, he had the experience I needed; a compete professional. He's a true master behind an excavator and I'm very glad I used him.

    Replacement rainwater soakaway.

    Very friendly and helpful guy who installed a replacement rainwater soakaway for us. He suggested using the old, tired, compacted gravel from the drive for the backfill and laid the new gravel on the drive, which was and excellent idea that worked well. Timely and diligent throughout. Excellent.

    I won’t hesitate to use John again

    I’m project managing a 75m2 extension, and of course groundworks are a key first step. I spent time searching for a contractor, and in the end John was a great find. John took on all the groundwork’s coordinating delivery up to DPC. John has a great work ethic and managed to deliver the groundwork’s despite some awful weather. The project is ready for the next phase, and Johns part was delivered on time and on budget. I have some more groundwork’s in the summer and I won’t hesitate to use John again.
