Overall Paul and his team did a great job, the workmanship is acceptable, and the team were friendly, helpful and open to discuss what they were doing. However; it often felt like my job was being juggled with other more important jobs, I’ve been asked by subsequent trades how it took over a year to complete a job that should have taken a few months. There are several issues that Paul has refused to rectify, the roof leaks (which has just cost me £7k to replace). Overall I’m disappointed in the service.

Matthew overcharged for materials. He told me he paid £40 at Screwfix for the spikes. I was shocked and asked for a copy of the receipt but he didn't provide it. I did pay him in cash for the work then checked the price at Screwfix. The cost is £29.99 not £40. As a result, I cannot recommend him.

Based in Bideford and working around north Devon I have built up a growing reputation for high quality workmanship with a polite and professional attitude. From advice to project managing to hands on building work whatever your need im confident in proving the service.

Matt & Rich completed our conversation on time and at a good price. They solved any issues that arose without a problem. We have since employed them again to complete a refurbishment on our holiday home. Would certainly recommend them to anyone.

Paul has been a fabulous help to both us and my mum’s house/ garden. He has listened to our requirements, offered sound advice and always highlighted cost effective options. He has undertaken cement work, fencing, power washing, garden maintenance at all levels plus many other jobs to secure ‘winterise’ our homes and gardens. He supplies the correct equipment to get the jobs done on time and within a sensible budget. No hesitation in recommending him.
