Rebuild front garden wall
"Very pleased with the job James did of rebuilding my wall. Having negotiated a fair price with me beforehand he arrived promptly and took time and care on the wall throughout the day. He clearly wanted to do a good job rather than just rushing to get iy done. Would not hesitate to recommend him for a bricklaying job. "

Under stairs storage
"After shortlisting I received a call from James on the Monday advising he would contact me Wednesday at what time he could pop round to take a look and give us a quote. Having got to 6.10pm I text James to see where he is only to get a message back saying he will leave this job for someone else. Shocking not even to contact us to say he is not coming. But at least we can see before giving him a job that not reliable "

Fencing — Stratford · November 2020
Fencing job
"James did a fabulous job on my garden fence. He is extremely hard working and carried out the work with no fuss even with all the intense manual labour and heavy lifting - he happily did it all. The result is superb - he provided a very high standard of work indeed. He also went the extra mile to stay late into the evening to tidy everything and take away the debris with him. I highly recommend him and will be using his services again."
