Highly recommend James. This is the second time we’ve used his services and he was even better than the first time if that’s possible! He completed a challenging deck project (to hold a spa) to a very high standard. He connected us up with an electrician and managed that relationship in order to coordinate the work being done, which made life way easier for us. He totally understood what we needed and gave us confidence in the project all the way along. He is an excellent communicator and super reliable, prioritising our work, coming day after day, rain or shine, and completing the work to a very high standard. He kept us constantly updated and always happily responded to our many questions! A lovely guy to deal with. He goes above and beyond. We will gladly use James for future work and I’d strongly recommend him to family and friends too. Reply: Thanks clodagh for the comments and reviews, it was an absolute pleasure working at your house, while you were away overseas. great communication with texting and messages from you. Encouraging and lovely compliments. From just showing you photographs of the job. Prompt payments, thanks clodagh and Sam.

Having been quite nervous regarding my slightly onerous building job James was excellent. He communicated well with the architect and was brilliant while I was overseas keeping me informed and sending pix. No stress, no hassle, got on to the job in good time, discussed everything thoroughly and cleaned up well. I would definitely recommend him and already have done. I’m generally pretty critical so this is praise indeed. Very transparent and fair, and a great looking job all signed off with the council. Thank you James. Reply: Thanks kara , thanks for your great communication even when you were in the UK , and very helpful with getting all the consents and paperwork sorted. thanks James
