Highlights
"Sean replaced our front garden wall that had come down. He was up front and accurate about the costs and options and was spot on about how long the job would take (even despite some terrible weather)! The work was great and the wall looks excellent. Very happy about Sean's work and would recommend SDB without hesitation."
"Our garden wall was a bit worse for wear. Séan gave us advice on a number options once inspecting it and there was no hard sell. Once work commenced Séan and his team were very tidy and courteous, and ensured work was done in the timeframe advised. We went for a rebuild using existing bricks and are really pleased with the end result. Without reservation, we would definitely reach out to Séan and his team again in the future."
"Sean has done a few projets in our dinning room, kitchen and conservatory. He is a hard worker and very reliable. Very plesant manner. We recommend him and would use him again."

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.
