Just had my garden renovated and what a transformation! Ben and the lads worked really hard, and despite my fussiness, got the job done quickly and efficiently, with a high standard. Cant wait to enjoy our garden and have a safe space for our little one to play in. Thanks so much 🙂

Ben was highly recommended to me by neighbours, and his team didn’t disappoint. In an incredibly short timescale they transformed a shabby unappealing front yard into something that gives the house real kerb appeal.
We’ve already booked more work in.
Ben is approachable and very professional, with excellent attention to detail. I couldn’t be happier !

I am absolutely over the moon with my garden transformation. Ben and then men did not stop working through the day. The garden is much more child and dog friendly and so much nicer to look at. I cant wait to use my new garden now. Thank you so much!!

Ben and the team did a breathtaking transformation of my garden. It went from an overgrown and unusable space to a low maintenance family friendly garden. Would certainly recommend, excellent work, thank you.

Ben responded quickly to messages, and booked me in quickly. he was hard working and did a fantastic job, I cant wait to use the log cabin once its painted. I would happily use him again if he was brave enough to accept.

Ben and his team of Rob, Aaron and Chardie did yet again an amazing job. This is the second time we have used their services and again we were not disappointed.
The first time was for some brickwork and this time was for replacing all of the guttering.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend their services - what a lovely bunch of guys.

Had a patio extension done by Ben and the crew.
Good solid work and very well matched to the old slabs.
Managed to squeeze us in very quickly and completed in record time.
Would use again.

Ben and his team did a fabulous job bricking up a back door and window for us.
Prompt quote and super quick job. Really pleased with the finish and matching of brickwork. Left it all clean and tidy for us too and took all rubbish away.
Highly recommend !
Thanks

Ben and the lads did an exceptional job on my garden. Our house is a new build and the garden was completely untouched, a mound of mud on a slant. Ben transformed my garden, which now has two levels (grass are and patio slabbed area). They did everything from scratch, built the wall and steps to create the two levels, then laid the patio slabs. They finished the job by laying the turf and stones. I contacted Ben and within a few days he had been round to check the garden and provide a quote. They were very efficient and got the job done quickly, without wavering on quality.

Thanks to Ben and the team, we would certainly use their services again and would highly recommend to anyone considering them!

Ben and his team laid a new patio and built matching steps up to our lawn last year and made a first class job of it. The finished product is of a very high standard and I would not hesitate in recommending him for all aspects of building work.

Needed a raised patio doing in my garden for my hot tub. Ben and his team were on time and always friendly. Would recommend to anyone

Needed my Dads chimney knocking down and rebuilt ASAP as dampness was starting to set in. Once I contacted Ben I had a quick quote and date to which he could do the job. He delivered on everything he said and did a fantastic tidy clean job. He made sure everything was cleaned off after the rebuild was complete so the scaffold could come straight down. I would highly recommend Ben and would use him again if I needed another job doing.
