James competed two relatively small renovations for us consisting of the installation of new lining and a glass door in the bathroom and removal of a internal wall connecting the lounge and a sunroom and raising of the floor in the sunroom utilising the existing timber floorboards. We were very happy with the quality of his work and the attention to detail.
