We contacted Jim after reading reviews on Which? Trusted Trader, and from first contact (which was between that awkward Christmas and New Year period), Jim came out, undertook a survey of works required and provided us with a reasonable quote. When the work commenced (removing and making good inside and out two windows, repairs to Soffits and removal and replacing a flat ceiling with a fully insulated pitch ceiling), Jim arrived promptly, kept us informed and gave us welcome advice at each stage and finished the work cleanly and meticulously. It was clear from the outset that Jim loves his work and cares as much about the end result as you do. His passion and professionalism shone through with each piece of work being completed with a real sense of pride. We are delighted with the work that Jim completed for us and would not hesitate to use again or recommend to others.

Jim repointed our loft interior gable end wall and chimney breast on a circa 1790 old cottage. The job was difficult for access and Jim took time and his expertise to complete. A job well done. Thank you

It can be so difficult to find a reliable trader, I asked local builders to provide quotes for repointing a couple of house walls and they didn't even return my call! I trust the Which? brand and after reading reviews I decided to contact Jim. Within a couple of hours we had exchanged phone calls and arranged for a site survey to take place the following week. Within two weeks of our initial contact Jim started the repointing and had it finished in five days, well before any frosts or bad weather. Jim was easy to get on with (he prefers strong white tea, no sugar) and proved to be a considerate and conscientious workman, arriving promptly and working safely. The quality of his work was excellent and he made a good job of cleaning up once the job was finished. This proved to be a thoroughly pleasant experience!

If you are looking for a professional builder who produces high quality work and has all the attributes of being a true gentleman, then Jim is your man. I would not hesitate to call on Jim's services again or indeed recommend him to a friend.

Jim provided a very quick and reasonable quote. He kept us informed, was reliable and did the work as promised. He even did a bit extra not originally quoted for! We’ll use him again and highly recommend him!

Jim came round quickly to assess the damage to our kitchen ceiling caused by a burst and gave us a very fair quote. He is very professional and turned up on the arranged date to do the work which he did to a great standard. He cleared up all the debris and took it with him. Wouldn't hesitate to use him again.
