Highlights
"We saw Lee constructing a garden wall in our street and we were so impressed with his work that we asked him for a quote to build a low dividing wall between us and our neighbour at the front of our property. His quote was very competitive and therefore we went ahead. Lee came up with some good suggestions that we hadn’t thought about and we are delighted with the end result. Lee is very personable and hard working and we would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone requiring building work."
"Lee did a fantastic job of resetting and repointing some dislodged bricks over our side gate. Looks great now and he left the area clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend."
"Lee quoted promptly and competitively to re-build our garden wall, seemed very knowledgeable and keen to help, so we had no hesitation in offering him the job. He completed the project in extremely difficult weather conditions thru January, keeping us updated on what he was doing and why. It took a little longer than planned simply because so many days were either wet or frozen, but the finished wall looks great and we are very happy with the standard of work. No hesitation in recommending Lee to anyone needing a good bricklayer who is knowledgeable, polite, friendly and hard-working!"

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.
