Liam and his workmate did a very good job lifting up my old flagstones and laying concrete. They cleaned everything away on to their truck. Good price for the work they did. Happy days

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Liam for any building works; he's transformed my old leaking outhouse, with a new roof and new doors, into a fantastic space I can finally use. Reliable, friendly, and the work is done a very high standard. Thank you!

Liam came out to repoint my brick work. He gave me a quote and came to do the work the next day. Their work was unbelievable and I couldn’t be happier

I contacted Liam and a few other places in regards to getting a room that can only be described as a internal coal house (external door that came internally into the house but had no internal doorway into the house) converted into a downstairs toilet. Liam responded via WhatsApp the same day, arranging to come out the next day to price up this job + another couple of potential other jobs we were looking at quotes for. The next day Liam kept me updated when running ever so slightly late, came in and was chatty, took pictures and all the details before letting us know he would sent over the

Excellent lift conversion carried out to a very high standard. The team were professional, punctual, and easy to deal with throughout the process. Everything was clearly explained, the work was completed on time, and the site was kept tidy. The lift works perfectly and has made a huge improvement to accessibility in the property. A reliable and skilled UK company that I would happily recommend to anyone considering a loft conversion

Highly recommended. I had an emergency with my chimney stack and Liam and his team come out and sorted it. They fitted it in around other jobs and I really appreciate it as it wasnt a nice task. Very reasonably priced and very professional. I was recommended Newall from a family member who done work for my aunt previously.

Liam responded quickly to my What’s App message and gave a competitive, quick quote. He explained he was busy but we agreed how to move forward. Liam kept in touch from my initial contact right through to the work being completed.He was friendly and reliable and we are pleased with his work.

I can’t even remember how I came to find Liam, other than looking for tiling services. The google gods were looking after me because Liam is nothing short of fantastic! The tiling job that Liam personally did is well executed and looks great, but Liam’s proactively in helping us in other areas is second to none. Liam is helpful, professional, reliable and one of the most upbeat people I’ve ever met. I cannot recommend enough and I’ve met enough tradesmen over the years to know good from bad. Liam is experienced, knows who to call, as a sub and is overall 11/10!

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.
