“Transformed our Victorian terrace completely.”
Chris and team have done an excellent job transforming our Victorian terrace front into a house you can be proud of. The front was in an awful condition, with the whole wall needing repointing. Chris and the team carefully restored the damaged areas and have given the house a new lease of life. Leaving the area clean and tidy. Will for sure use again.
“Prompt, expert work — damp issues solved fast.”
Excellent friendly and professional customer service at the right price. Due to the recent heavy rain and high winds water was finding its way under the window sill and into my bedroom causing noticeable and persistent dampness. At short notice Chris fitted me in and repointed critical parts of the external front wall. Two days later for the same reason damp appeared on the internal bedroom side wall. Chris again returned at short notice and repointed a significant part of the exposed brick work on the side external wall where it is exposed to bad weather. The net result is well repaired brick work and both problems have gone away If you want a good job doing at a sensible price I have no hesitation in recommending Chris.
"Real quality work from a team who understand period homes."
Chris and all the team have been great to work with and did a fantastic job fully repointing the front and back wall and chimneys of my early Victorian cottage. They also replaced the concrete paving in the front garden with a beautiful York stone path matching the one original stone on the doorstep. I am delighted with the results. I was nervous about having work done in a conservation area but Chris gave great advice as did the rest of the team as we went through the works and have saved me from many missteps and have produced work of real quality. They work quickly and with minimum fuss and keep the neighbours happy too who have all remarked on how transformed the building is. I have more work to do and wouldn’t hesitate to get Chris and the gang in.
