Dave has completed an excellent set of jobs for us on our Edwardian home and garden walls, matching the existing lime mortar perfectly. He worked continuously despite persistent rain, sheltering under his fishing umbrella. There was no mess left afterwards either, top job.

Just had Dave and Pete making major repairs to the end gables on our 16th century farmhouse plus repointing both gables. Additionally did some interior repointing in the kitchen and lounge. Excellent workmanship very tidy on the job and good communications regarding whats being done and when. This was the first time we’ve used Dave and he’s now booked in for some further work later this year.

Last spring Dave repointed the front of our victorian terrace home. Such a transformation – see our before and after pics (windows also replaced). Thanks Dave, your flexibility, craftsmanship and hard work are very much appreciated!
