Highlights
"Gary and his team were communicative, prompt, and went out of their way to complete works on time — even when suppliers were delayed. The builders were polite, kept us informed, and cleared up nicely after they were done. Excellent customer service, highly recommended. All work completed to a good standard."
"Competitive price and good customer service. They worked hard to get the drive done in the timescale they agreed. Really pleased with the result. I would use them again."
"Extremely happy with the work done, the excellent quality and the very competitive price. I really cannot fault the work. This firm did my neighbours fencing and I was very impressed, hence why we used them. Fast to make appointment, very good price, fast to get the work done and to a high standard. It’s very difficult choosing someone you’ve never used before but I can wholeheartedly recommend Gary and GDB. The guyz cheerfully worked in the rain, no complaints. Despite the inevitable mud from the rain they cleared up & left it perfect just as though they had never been."

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.
