    Build brickwall in front garden

    Sean carried out the building of two brick walls and relaying existing pavier drive to new falls to highest possible standard. We are extreamly pleased with the final result. He turned up on time despite the very wet weather, was polite,tidy and professional. I will not hesitate to recommend him to family and friends. It is encouraging to find there are still British craftsmen who carry out excellent work.Thanks Sean.

    Rebuild small wall near front of house

    Sean did a great job. Turned on bang on time early in the morning, was already cracking on with the job when we came outside, and when we got back home, an extremely well made and good looking wall was waiting for us. So good in fact that it puts the another existing wall to shame.

    Repointing with lime mortar

    Sean was helpful, punctual, did a first-class job and cleaned up after the lime mortar work he did for us. Very highly recommended.

    Brick garden wall to repair

    Sean did an excellent job resolving a major crack in my garden wall, adding hilo bars, remortaring and repointing. His work was exceptionally neat, he helped out unasked with some other tasks and he arrived every day extremely punctually. I'm very pleased with his work and would happily recommend him and his masonry skills to anyone. A satisfied customer in Blackheath, 19.5.12

    Pointing external walls - Victorian house.
    Sean & Team have done a very good job in our house. Despite changing the brief (we decided to postpone the re pointing and focus on walls removals), Sean ensured that the right man was on the right job and things went very well. The bureaucrats at the Council created a little nightmare out of nowhere and additional work needed to be done. The team worked through all the extra demands with high professionalism and integrity. It also certainly helps that they are nice, reliable and well mannered chaps. All in all I highly recommend Sean and his team. GFM

    New garden wall

    Having never instructed a builder before and not having been able to find one upon recommendation locally, I reluctantly started researching on the internet. My two main concerns were finding someone reputable who could be trusted to complete the project to a very high standard. After a few weeks, I stumbled across Sean's profile and was comforted by the feedback of his previous clients as well as the fact that his expertise lies in restoration work. Although my project (a garden wall) was pretty basic, it was important to me that it was built in keeping with the Victorian brickwork of neighbouring houses. To cut a long story short, Sean was absolutely perfect. He arrived well in time each day to start work, was extremely respectful of my property in terms of protecting the floors from dirt and was very polite and pleasant to deal with. He took a great deal of care over the walls that needed building and the end product far exceeded my expectations. He had to do the bulk of the work during extremely bad weather but pushed on with no complaint to ensure he met the deadline. All in all, I could not fault his technical ability or service and would highly recommend him to others. I am already considering him for a future job!

    Removal of plaster from chimney breast expos. brickwork
    Don't know where to start: I've been incredibly lucky to have Sean doing this job. He takes such well deserved pride in his work, is very responsive when organising the work, always punctual and just gets on with the work. The finished job is fantastic and I couldn't recommend Sean enough to anybody who wants to get anything done that involves brickwork. You won't be disappointed neither in the results nor to work with Sean. Big thank you, Sean!
