Worked carried out at Swanmore Methodist Church. Re-pointing was required to parts of the brickwork. Darren listened to our requirements, advised and did a professional job. Work was carried out during the school holidays as requested to minimise disruption to activities. The work area was left clean and tidy at the end of each working day.

It was a pleasure to do the work for you. Thank you for the positive review. We do work hard to minimise any disruption to our clients and make sure we get a good match with the lime mortar used. We do try accomodate any requests particularly when working on property that requires access by the general public.

Darren did a first class job in building a fire break wall in my attic. He was totally prepared for the day of the build and left the area clean. Invoiced as per quote.

Darren fixed our patio, which was in awful condition. He did a fantastic job and we were delighted with the results. He is very reliable, friendly and good value. I will definitely use again.

Paved front garden and built front steps. Prompt quote after initial meeting, suggested ways to cut costs/save money. Gave technical advice and guidance re choice of stonesand gave us a sample. Suggested wholesaler to see the paving stones on mass, so we could make a choice. Very thorough, worked solidly throughout the day, so pleased we'd like Darren to do back garden. Excellent all round, with attention to detail.

We had our 'problem' patio re- laid. Darren did a very professional job to a high standard. We are very pleased with the result. Darren takes pride in his work, and manages his time and his staff well. He kept us informed of progress, and dealt with an issues that arose without a fuss. He is technically very knowledgeable.
