Highlights
"Geoff and Terry replaced the top course of bricks on our garden wall, and cleaned and fully repointed our patio, with a few other repairs to coping and pointing. The work they did looks great, they kept me fully informed during the work and were very pleasant to have around. They cleaned up well and left things tidy at the end of each day, despite having to deal with changeable weather. Quote was good value. Would definitely recommend."
"Contacted Geoff via Checkatrade in June, to build a gerden wall, he came round after a phone call with some brick samples to mach up with the house bricks. Very helpful and professional, togerther with his mate Terry, they both worked very hard to remove an old fence before starting the wall. What a wonderful job they did building my fantastic wall, a lot of neighbours took photos and said what a great job. highly recommend GB Briskwork & Paving for any brick walls. Thank you Geoff, for all your hard work."
"Geoff and Terry quoted at a fair price and came exactly on time and worked quickly with no issues whatsoever during the brief piece of work. They finished in under two days, cleaning up completely."

Before you hire a builder
Never pay a large deposit up front — agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow — both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
