Andy did an excellent job replacing the lintel and repairing the brickwork above our patio doors which was in a very poor state causing the wall to sag. Andy, organised a suitable date, was very easy to communicate with and did the repair work to a very high standard and also cleaned up after the job was done. Will be using again

We used Andy's bricklaying services as we had a couple of small walls and two brick posts build on the entrance of our drive way. The quote was reasonable, Andy kept me informed what was going to be done and when everything was going to be delivered. The guys worked really hard never stopped and very punctual. Everything was clean and tidy when they finished the job. We are more than happy with the service they delivered, would definitely be using him again in the future. I fully recommend this company.

Had Andy over to check on our extension’s roof after it got some damage after a bad storm. He came around and gave us a great quote, and discussed all the issues that needed to be addressed. Came to do the job as soon as he was able, and did a cracking job. Communicated the whole way, showing photos of the progress after each day’s work and explaining how it’s going. For any roofing jobs in future I won’t hesitate to get back in touch with Andy. Easy choice.

Andy is excellent. Quoted us some work on a recently bought house nothing too big or small and has now done roof repairs thay turned into a much bigger job than expected but was totally fair and open the whole time. Really appreciated his expertise as it's our first house. Totally recommend. Thanks again 👍

We needed a wall repairing, and found Andy via Google. He turned up promptly, gave us a quote within the time he said he would, then did a great job of the repairs. We were also impressed with Andy's communication throughout the process, keeping us regularly informed. We would highly recommend him for any brickworks required.

This guy is first class in everything he does, starting the work to completion date we were always kept in the loop of what was happening. He was courteous, cheerful & cleaned up at the end of every working day. We would highly recommend this guy to everyone as he's very professional in all areas of his work & we would not hesitate to have him back in the future.
