After our conversation, John arranged to come round same day to see the job and give us a quote. If we take him on for the job I'm sure he would be as prompt and professional in getting the job done.

Came and looked at job gave quote and start date. Noticed that wall was also leaning inwards and after some consideration advised that wall should be knocked down and rebuilt for same cost as original quote. Turned up when he stated and removed wall and recovered most of bricks. Rebuilt wall higher than original with cap bricks on either end. Very impressed with the way he lined up wall and kept concrete between rows equal continually checking measurements. Good craftsman will use again. Highly recommended

Unfortunately I couldn’t recommend Neil, original quote was £160 plus materials, (1 day job) took him 6 hours to do 10% of the job and ended up asking him to leave as it was going to cost a fortune to keep him on to finish the work. Also quoted £50 - £70 for materials and then in an email quoted it £135. He seems a nice guy but the quality of work was not acceptable for the price.

My neighbours and I got together as the wall at the back of the garages fell down exposing the rooves. It was complicated co-ordinating and locating everyone. Joe stepped in and got the job done competently and professionally, with considerable people skills. He did everything we asked of him and we are really pleased with the work. He gives a five year guarantee too which is reassuring. Everything checks out about Joe and he has proved himself to be trust-worthy. We employed the right company.
