    chimney/chimney breast

    The job we needed doing was quite a big job, i.e. removal of chimney stack & breast,making good the roof tiles, timbers, batons & felt. Also making good chimney breast area after removal,by means of having it all tied in and plastered to match and run level with surrounding walls. In addition to this, we also required a wall to be put up with door access, creating a third bedroom for us, with a nice plaster finish. finaly Nick, leveled off the floor area where the old fire-place used to be. would i use Nick and his team again ? simple, would'nt hessitate. started the job with a confident approach, and carried on through with proffessionalism. I would recomend Nick, to anyone who needed a job well done.

    Repointing, installing 4/5 air bricks
    Nick is obviously experienced (brick laying), the work is carried out to a professional standard and his 100% positive rating is entirely justified. Honest, helpful, flexible and knowledgeable, I trusted Nick to get on with the work, knowing he understood our requirements. Regarding Nick's first appointment, he had a job cancellation and pro-actively turned up at the property to begin work on our wall while we were at work (he didn't need access to the house at that time). He spoke with our neighbours to let them know he would be beginning work as he had arrived earlier than arranged and needed to work from their drive. He helpfully agreed an additional job for them as they wanted membrane laying down under the gravel. Everyone was happy. Nick and colleague were punctual on the second and final visit. He tidied up after himself and the finished job is very neat - we're pleased with the result. Wouldn't hesitate in recommending Nick.

    demolish and remove small garden shed

    I was delighted with the speed and competence of this tradesman. Nicholas turned up at the agreed time [ 7.30] and started work as soon as he had looked at the shed and surrounding area. He did not stop work [ was being watched by the dog from bedroom window!! ] and the shed was demolished and taken away within a couple of hours. No mess left behind. I would certainly not hesitate to use Nicholas again.

    Insert three air-bricks
    Very satisfied. Nick suggested best place to site the the air bricks, 5 singles rather than 3 doubles. Good communication before the job, very good workmanship and gave good advice on other tasks. Would definitely recommend. Many thanks.

    Install a cat flap in an external wall
    Nick was asked to prepare wall for installation of a cat flap with tunnels. Work carried out professionally, discussing each stage to ensure we are happy with outcome......which we was. Friendly chap, very tidy and cleaned area when complete. We will indeed contact Nick again should we need further work on property done. Thanks Nick

    Removal of chimney breast (60"x19"), SE13

    Nick is a very nice guy. He dealt very well with our changing requirements (due to imcompetent structural engineer). In the end he couldn't remove the chimney stack so we got him to do a few other tasks - which he completed well. I would definately recommend to others for similar work.

    Brickwork repointing under eaves.

    I hired Nick to extend my drainage and replace some bricks under my eaves. When he came to quote he explained that I wouldnt need to extend the drain and offered an alternative which was much cheaper. Nick repaired the brickwork. so no longer offering a home to the birds in my loft.I was pleased with his work so Iv hired Nick again to repair the garden wall.
