Joe and team completed a single storey rear extension to our home recently. Joe was able to source all materials without delay to the project even whilst we were in lockdown. The extension was approved by the council without hiccup and has also been inspected by the FMB (Federation of Master Builders). I have no hesitation in recommending Joe and team.

Joe's team rebuild the paths around our front yard allowing larger vehicles to park and easy walking. This used a good number of old paving stones and such. The areas involved include some steep gradients and old, hard concrete slabs which took some breaking. This was completed exactly as we wanted and in very good time. The old brick wall was expertly modified and nicely finished. The team are really professional and a good laugh as well!

Carried out plinth repair to my house. This involved cutting back to the brickwork in places, rendering and re-painting. All work was carried out to a high standard, in a clean and tidy manner and in the required timeframe. Recommended.

Joe and his team created a concrete base in my garden for a plastic shed I had purchased. Joe was reliable and excellent to deal with, and the communication was clear throughout. The work was completed to a high standard. The team even came back to touch up the base after a stray animal had left some minor footprints, which I appreciated. Would recommend and consider using again.

Joe and his team painted the front of my house on Harrow on the Hill. The result is stunning and has received many compliments. They also repaired the bay window. All the work was carried out in a timely way - the team was professional and considerate as well as pleasant to have around. I couldn't be more pleased and I highly recommend these builders.

Excellent workmanship, reliable and prompt, clean and tidy after the work was done. All works carried out for us over the years are still good as new. Recently they have completed decorating and repaired front elevation to our 1905 built property in this conservation area of Harrow on the hill.
