Highlights
"Lea and his team built a half height, insulated cavity wall for our Conservatory. They also put up several fence panels and laid concrete slabs in recent cold weather in minus temperatures. They did a very satisfactory job. We would contact them again for any future projects. Five stars. Thank you Lea"
"Lee and his team did an excellent job fitting lintels above our windows where none existed. Before They were on time, friendly and the quality of the work was excellent. Due to the cavity thickness and original house construction they chose to carefully cut each brick for a flush finish rather than sticking them in as they were. They went the extra mile to make sure it was a great job. Very pleased."
"Lee and his team were fantastic from start to finish. They removed some load bearing walls, constructed a new block work wall and screeded our floor. The work was done very quickly with minimal mess. They dealt with building control and kept exactly to schedule. Would not hesitate to recommend Lee and his team."

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.
