Highlights
"Work included replacement patios, lawn drainage and turf replacement. Team arrived punctually on agreed date and completed work in timescale given. Adjustments made to job on site and carried out without additional expense. The whole team were skilled, professional and flexible. The site was cleared proficiently on completion. We are now considering additional work on the strength of this experience. Highly recommended."
"Highly recommended done back garden after someone let me down badly so asked William and his team to do my driveway amazing job"
"William Gray and his team provide an excellent service. He gave sound advice and delivered everything I was hoping for in my new build garden. They have all the machinery, tools and skills to make it happen. I had naively considered having a go myself. In reality, the amount of earth moved was staggering. There’s an unbelievable amount of preparation work done before any paving is laid. I’m really happy with the result and would definitely recommend them."

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.
