Ryan recently completed some work for my elderly Mum, building a sleeper wall at the back of the garden, after it being left in bad shape and incomplete by a previous builder. Ryan was extremely helpful & professional throughout the process and provided various different quotes at our request, with nothing being too much to explain.
He went above and beyond to complete the work in a timely fashion and to cause as little disturbance as possible for my mum. When the work was complete, he even went the extra mile to spray paint her washing pole to match… [read more]the colour of the metal posts that had been used within the sleeper wall, which was really kind of him. I would definitely recommend Ryan and his team.

Ryan has done a very good job in giving my fence and patio a new lease of life. The fence was unstable due to a badly weathered concrete retaining wall base and rotten fence posts. He replaced the top two layers of the concrete retaining wall and the fence posts. Ryan installed an arco drain to protect the retaining wall and cemented in the patio for good measure. It looks great.

Ryan is fantastic, he did all the brickwork for our large extension along with some stonework rebuilding a garden wall, it was so impressive, we are delighted with the standard of the work and found him excellent to deal with, really nice guy. The whole experience working with Ryan was a pleasure, we really couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

Ryan has worked alongside my company POW CONSTRUCTION over the last 5 years as contractor for all of our major masonry works . He was only able to carry out weekend works for us due to his commitments as a full time bricklayer. However, what he puts out in quality work over a weekend is what others need a week to do , I’m am so pleased that he now has made the Huge decision to go it alone as a domestic contractor and I would urge anyone whether a building contractor or a domestic client not to hesitate and… [read more]contact Ryan for his expertise and hard working attitude of which I’m sure will NOT dissapoint anyone.

I cannot express enough just how hard Ryan works. When renovating my garden, Ryan had full commitment on weekends back to back even though this was his downtime due to working Monday to Friday. The level of hardwork Ryan puts into his craft is second to none. I couldn’t be more thankful of the outcome from how it looked before to how it turned out after Ryan got his hands on it. If anyone ever asked me to recommend the ‘Jack of all trades’ I’d send them Ryan’s way as the level of hardwork, perfection and determination he has is… [read more]undeniably like no other. Thankyou for all your help!
