James and his team did a fantastic job. Work was completed on time and exceeded expectations. Team were prompt, polite and came up with a number of recommendations which we agreed with. Would thoroughly recommend JFL.
The team were great from start to finish. They were polite, tidy, reliable and did a fantasic job of what we wanted and were happy to change a few things along the way. They worked very hard long hours. Very pleased
James is an incredibly hard worker and a great communicator. He and his team were efficient and tidy and pleasant to have around. The work was completed to a high standard and I would not hesitate to recommend him. I will definitely be using his services again
Highly recommended - James was on time, tidy, provided suggestions (patio layout, tile layout, considerations for steps and guttering, sourcing materials etc) and an absolute perfectionist when it came to the build. The final product was a newly laid porcelain patio with a side fence and decorative screening. We couldn't be happier with the final product.
Reliable,tidy, and conscientious. James and his team did a great job and I am happy to recommend his company to friends and family
James and his team worked efficiently, diligently and professionally throughout the job. They were happy to deal with variations to the original plans and were at pains to make sure I was totally happy with the job once completed.
Excellent work and service from James. Prompt and reliable.
Print start after quotation agreed Efficient, hard working, polite Excellent end result
All work carried out to our satisfaction and as specified. James came up with sensible and useful suggestions when any problem arose. Very reliable.
James and Jade worked very hard on our fencing, James recommended close board fencing which he built around our existing trees, this has worked very well. They worked in extreme weather conditions and kept going no matter what, they were punctual, tidy, courteous and involved us where appropriate. I would definitely use them again.
James has completed a replacement garden fence and the installation of 3 new five bar field gates. His workmanship and attention to detail is first class. The site is always tidy and nothing is left to chance so the result is a finish to be proud of. Hard working and professional.
James and his team worked very hard and efficiently, were reliable and tidy, and completed the job in good time. We were very pleased with the outcome, and the fair price, and would be happy to use JFL again for any future works we might need.
Quick and easy to deal with, great job without any problems, have got them coming back to carry out some more work! Thanks guys
Very pleased with the work done by James and his team, they levelled off a very uneven piece of ground at the end of my garden and installed a new 8m fence, the work was done very efficiently and tidily.
JFL fitted a submersible pump in a low lying part of our garden and connected it to our drainage system in order to relieve surface water issues. James and his team were hard working, efficient and very tidy, despite working in some challenging weather conditions. A few days on after completion of the work and you'd scarcely know they had been there at all. Very satisfied customer !
Extremely happy with the work completed. The job started on time and was carried out as agreed. James and Ben were very polite, helpful, tidy and well organised. They were here every day until the job was finished. They worked well as a team and worked extremely hard. Would 100% recommend this company and would be very happy to use them again. Great results, paving looks fab.
James superbly understood what we needed on a pretty tough and unloved clay garden, woodland and boundaries. The post and rail fencing is now a stunning boundary, and where we had uneven and messy clay, we now have beautiful level grass and borders, skilfully sculpted by James and the resourceful JFL team. James and the team are always an absolute pleasure to deal with, polite, efficient and full of ideas to solve issues. We would happily recommend JFL for all garden and landscaping projects.
