Andy is very experienced and did a fantastic job on a wall repair and section replacement for us , especially given the quality of the brick we had! Kept us well updated as we went along. Thanks Andy for the great job!

I can wholeheartedly recommend Andrew at Leith Construction. He and his team have transformed my 1850s semi in the last five months. Works included roofing, rebuilding a chimney, total internal renovation, plastering and decorating, extensive electrical and plumbing work, joinery, external decoration and a transformation of the garden. He discussed every step of the way with me and coped admirably with my many changes of mind and budgetary constraints. I couldn't be more pleased with the results. Review by Virginia Lyle
