Alex Clark Building and Maintenance
Rating: 5 out of 5
I am an independent trader with over 17 years experience in cabinet making, site carpentry, and also all aspects of building. My normal line of work is creating bespoke home alterations such as clever storage designs, kitchen construction/fitting and staircases. I like using new and/or reclaimed material, which ever suits, and I believe any idea is possible.

Bricklaying- 11 Apr 2019
Alex has been brilliant from start to finish. He was willing to listen to what we wanted and advised the best way forward. He is very tidy, conscious of neighbours and the existing plants in the garden. He was very trustworthy and we felt happy to let him have the house keys. He was very thorough and we would certainly recommend Alex and would have him back anytime. His brick laying is very professional and he has certainly made a great job of the wall and fencing at the bottom of the garden.

Roofing (Flat)- 3 Sep 2018
Excellent work by Jacob replacing the 40-square metre pitched roof. He responded very quickly and commenced work within days. He was punctual, tidy, and methodical in his approach to the task. The finished work looks excellent and I am confident it will last due to the materials used and the care applied in fixing it in place.

Steve undertook the conversion of a 50 x 20 foot stable block annexe on my Grade 2 listed former coach house to create an enlarged domestic dwelling. The old roof was removed back to below the wall plate, a new roof was cut to alignment and slate finished. Inside the walls were re-aligned, ceiling installed and insulated with with Celotex before dry-lining. Steve not only undertook this work but coordinated the other trades and liaised with Building Control and conservation to ensure full compliance throughout. Being in the construction industry I can safely say that Steve's work across an number of core trades is of a very high standard. Also he impressed the Building Control and Conservation Officer with his knowledge and compliance. The work was completed within budget, ahead of programme and to a high standard. Steve's strengths are founded on his all round knowledge of construction, both practical and theoretical, which when combined with his positive attitude is a great asset in this field. Possibly the closest I've seen to a "one stop shop" for domestic building.

The work for English Heritage has to be top notch and I have never had a problem with Lyndon's work. He has helped with everything from laying brickwork to installing appliances.

Damp Proofing- 13 Mar 2012
Iain and his team did a fantastic job for us and we couldn't be happier. Firstly Iain - who is one of the nicest and most professional contractors I have yet met - assessed our property twice (at no charge) to make sure the job would be successful. On the day the work was completed it was done quicker than estimated and the installer did a very good, neat job and tidied up after himself. Iain was on the other end of the phone to answer any queries we had and made sure we were happy and satisfied.

Damp Proofing- 5 May 2019
Prodryuk were the first to respond to my request and came the same day to give a no obligation quote. Not only did they find the cause of the damp but also highlighted a potential issue with my flat roof. The price was reasonable and were able to accommodate my needs. They were able to start the work within a week and completed it in a few days. Happy with the service, the diagnostic and will definitely use them to waterproof my house in the near future.

Conversions - General- 21 Feb 2019
Steve was really friendly and made us feel confident that the job would be done well. The job was finished in one day as Steve had suggested, even with an unexpected situation arising during the job (a cable running straight through where we wanted the hole) he helped resolve it by finding the right person to fix the problem. We are so happy with the end result, it is exactly what we wanted and would recommend Steve.
