Expert Pointer, Reasonably Priced Friendly and Reliable
Dan repointed brickwork for me and I am extremely happy with the job. Dan is knowledgeable, punctual, efficient and very personable. He turned up when he said he would, he stuck to his quote and was so helpful with his suggestions about the best solution to my problem. His price was fair and reasonable. I highly recommend him - and I rarely say this about tradespeople!

Would not hesitate to recommend
I had a problematic rear wall at my house that had, in the past, been repaired with lots of unsightly cement patches. I wanted to install a new terrace, so wanted to make the wall look nicer, and asked Dan to quote for replacing the affected bricks. Dan gave excellent & honest advice - rather than replacing the bricks, which would be v expensive, he suggested that he 'colour in' the cement patches to help them blend in with the surrounding brickwork. He did this to a very high standard and I'm very happy with the result - both effective and cost-effective. Dan also re-pointed my chimney stack. All of the work he carried out was great, and the rear of my house looks much better as a result. Throughout, Dan was a real pleasure to work with - great communication, hardworking, on time, and completely trustworthy. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to others.

Professional and Expert
I never understood that pointing was a combination of skill and artistry and a discrete profession within the building trade. Dan patiently help my hand through the process of deciding which colours to use by painting several small areas with different mixes . In fact I never realised that there were different colours and finishes. Existing damaged and marked bricks were invisibly repaired to give a new appearance. The job revived a poorly constructed front entrance to give my house excellent kerb appeal and a very satisfied customer.

House Pointing
Dan and Paul did a fabulous job of pointing the front of our house and patching up bits at the side and back. In extremely inclement weather and with the ongoing Covid situation they kept on track with the work and produced a super result. Given the circumstances they were always extremely cheerful, professional and kept us updated at all times with the works. From what could have been a very dusty job, they kept mess to a minimum and cleaned up each evening. The final amount did not change from the amount quoted. This is the first job, in a long time, where we have had work done to the house and there has not been any issues (which is so refreshing in this day and age). We would highly recommend Evans Pointing Specialists.

Brilliant work
Dan and his colleague Paul were absolutely fantastic. They repointed all the walls of our Victorian end-of-terrace house in lime mortar, and the result is outstanding. From the initial quote, to making test samples of different mixes, to finishing off additional bits once the scaffolding came down, they worked incredibly diligently and with real attention to detail. We couldn't be happier with the result and I would definitely recommend them to anyone. True perfectionists.

Fantastic job!
I contacted Dan after I saw all his 5 star reviews. Having now experienced his work, I can fully endorse them. He recently re-pointed our wall and I have only praise for the way he went about it. He clearly knows his craft. He was extremely professional, punctual, reasonably priced and tidied up at the end of each day. The finished job looks great.

Great work
Front garden wall between our house and next door, has suffered over the years, Dan, once contact was quick to come and give us a quote. He then managed to fit us in earlier than expected due to another job being postponed. In these strange COVID times Dan &, his co-worker, Paul, where happy to be self contained and we really did not know they were there. Work is excellent, done in a timely and tidy manner, with a few interruptions by the English Summer. I would have no hesitations to recommend Dan & Paul.

Really pleased with the result
Dan repointed the back of our terraced house. Very straightforward process for us from start to finish. The site was kept very tidy and cleaned daily. The result is brilliant. Dan kept us informed at each stage and was able to fit round our requirements.

Great work repointing the front of my house
It was very easy to arrange a survey, quote and to plan in dates for the work to be completed. When onsite the area was kept as clean and tidy as possible, and work was completed within four days as originally estimated. I was really pleased with the work, and would definitely recommend to others. Thank you

Good work and problems resolved
Dan was instructed to complete re-pointing and repair work to the walls of my house. While being a small job (3 days) Dan was able to be flexible with the timings and fitted in the work at a time that suited me. The original price quoted was the price I paid on completion. From the start of the process Dan was happy to talk me through the work and was very knowledgeable and happy to explain the processes needed to be done. Dan and his colleague arrived on time and were very polite and professional. The job was messy but they cleaned down every day and left the property looking neat and tidy. While there were 3 snagging issues, as there always will be, these were dealt with quickly and professionally with Dan returning in the week to discuss, confirm and complete the work to my satisfaction. I could not recommend Dan enough.

High quality work at a reasonable price
Dan and his co-worker Paul worked carefully and diligently repointing the front of my house. The result was excellent and my house now looks extremely presentable. I felt confident throughout that Dan and Paul were experts in this field and I am very happy I chose to use this company. The work was completed on time and the amount I was quoted was exactly what I paid. Highly recommended.

Outstanding work
I'm happy to recommend getting Dan to do your pointing/brickwork. At every stage of the process, from quoting to completion, he was 100% professional, friendly and trustworthy. We were totally happy to leave our keys with him during the day while we were out at work. The work was of an excellent standard and he and Paul worked hard all day (in the rain!) without any fuss. When they left they tidied up really well. I couldn't fault either of them for anything.

Excellent service all round
From first correspondence with Dan to last, Dan provided an exceptional service and acted with integrity throughout. Dan quickly diagnosed the problem and explained the solution, providing a clear and reasonable quotation for the repointing of the facade of my property. Communication prior to commencing work and throughout was brilliant and Dan & Paul carried out the work exactly as described. The quality of their work was outstanding. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this company to others. A breath of fresh air.

Pointing of Portico and Balustrades
The work was carried out with meticulous care and attention to detail. The result was outstanding and produced a result that was as good as new. Dan and Paul completed the pointing of the terrace and steps with just as much care. I can thoroughly recommend this company to anyone and be sure that they would give excellent service.

Very professional and experienced!
We were let down at short notice by another repointer and Dan went out of his way to step in to help us out. From our first communication we knew we had found the right person and were very impressed with the care and professionalism taken to ensure we got the right job for our needs and budget. The team were courteous, punctual and above all clean and tidy. We are so pleased with the finished product, it takes a real craftsman to pay so much care and attention to doing a good job. We would thoroughly recommend Dan for all your re-pointing needs.

We had two small areas of brickwork that needed re pointing while scaffolding was still up. Dan fitted us in at short notice and did a great job.

Simply great - highly recommended
We asked Dan to repoint a 150 year old wall in our garden and repair a modern, rendered wall. It may sound silly - but I have never admired a wall so much in my life! Dan did a really great job - he really cared about the attention to detail, gave us lots of options to make sure we were happy with the finish and was a real joy to work with. It was a really competitive price compared to other quotes we got and we're really happy with the result. Highly recommended!

A customer focused professional
We contacted Mr Evans about repointing our house. He arrived on time and took the time to talk through what we wanted including style and colour of the repointing and including replacing cracked bricks. His quote separated out his work from the erection of scaffolding, which we paid for separately. Mr Evans did warn us that the work was very noisy and dusty. He went to great lengths to prevent dust getting into the house. Before the scaffolding was removed, Mr Evans walked us round the house to make sure we were happy with the work. Then at completion of the work he checked again that we were happy. Throughout the work Mr Evans and his colleague arrived promptly, worked very hard, kept us informed on progress and tidied up at the end of the day. During the time we formed a good relationship with Mr Evans and he always took the time to listen to our comments and needs. When the work was completed, he invoiced us promptly for the same sum as the quote. We recommend Mr Evans to undertake any repointing you may need.

A Very professional Job
Dan's work was of the highest standards. We have just had the front of our house repointed after he and his colleague repointed our large back patio and a garden wall built of old stock bricks. They both demonstrated good technical knowledge for the type of pointing needed in each case. Having tried some cowboys last year I can really see the difference when professionals do it. Admittedly it's early days. It will be important to see how long the work lasts but they took no short cuts, worked long hours 08:00-16:00 every day and were superb at cleaning up at the end. Even photographed positions of plant pots before moving and replacing. On a personal note, the three projects meant they were with us for much of the Summer and there were two important family issues that needed their attention. I was impressed by the short absence from work and the open and honest communication I received about this at the time. Very happy to recommend Dan and his colleague
