Testimonials
What our clients say
Phil replaced a wall (framing and cladding) that had suffered water damage. He was quick, hard working, thorough, thoughtful (encountered no unanticipated surprises) and provided a competitive and accurate estimate. He was very patient and gave great advice about options for weather proofing the wall, and the house more generally, and great to work with. Would recommend to anyone for general house work and repairs.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ John Roy
Removed old deck and replaced with new Kwila – a great and professional job. Also identified some structural work that needed to be done, clearly explained the need for and scope of further work and provided cost estimates. Haven’t had a better building job done than this before. Highly recommended.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ christopher stevenson
Phil removed an old chimney from my roof and patched the exterior with new colour matched iron, and internal with gib. He was great with comms, provided a competetive quote, and I was pleasantly surprised when the job came in significantly cheaper after it was done quicker than expected. I’m very happy with the work and will be getting in contact in the future for help with some other jobs around the house.
