Highlights
"The work to remove decking, lay a new patio and pathway, also lay turf on the garden was absolutely brilliant. I cannot praise William and his guys enough. They worked so hard and were very polite, friendly and respectful. I would definitely recommend them and use them again in the future."
"This was the second project Will and his team have carried out for us. Once again we were very pleased with the high standard of work on our garden. Would highly recommend."
"Work completed on time and within budget. Very hardworking team who turned up on time and left the area tidy every day. No issues at all and highly recommended."

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.
