    Build Two Tier Brick Patio Step

    Unfortunately the lower step does not have a fall to drain rain water off and the step sinks very slightly in middle also the step has not been built level with the ground which means once the ground is level you will not see the brickwork

    Hello unfortunately I was unable to complete the work necessary the next day as you had put all my tools out side the front of your house with note. I tried contacting you how ever you have ignored me. If there was something you wasn’t happy with you have not even given me a chance to rectify the issue. All my works I undertake I take to a professional stand and if a customer is unhappy with something I expect a adult conversation to resolve any issue that you may not be happy with

    Garden Redesign Based On AI Image

    I’d recommend Rhys to everyone who wants to do their garden landscaping/ installing flower beds / patio installation I explained to him the idea’s which I had and he has done better than that. Rhys gave me additional ideas to make the garden better and look more appealing. He was always on time and finished the job as per his quoted day. Absolutely happy with my new garden transformation , Thanks to Rhys .

    Rebuild Damaged Brick Gatepost

    Excellent job, Rhys did a great job and completed on-time and with a good price. Very satisfied.

    Rebuild Small Exterior Wall

    - Very pleased with how the wall turned out, and was done for a very good price

    Replace Front Garden Wall

    Rhys provided a very good service: a competitive quote and then carrying out the work when he said he would and to an impressive standard. The job involved a mix of reusing existing and new bricks for two sides of a front garden. Unfortunately, he has not come back to do additional coping stones as promised by him both in writing and verbally many times or remove some material from the site. A shame really as he is a nice guy. I do recommend him but would say to make sure the work is fully complete before writing recommendations.

    Rebuild Crashed Brick Wall

    We are very happy with the new garden wall. Rhys is friendly and worked super hard to get the job done swiftly.

    Rebuild Driveway Wall and Pillar

    Called out Rhys to rebuild my outside wall which was damaged by a car reversing into it. Rhys communication with me was excellent from start to finish. The quote given was very reasonable for the work done. The work itself was carried out to a very high standard finish could not fault it. Clearly Rhys knows his craft work and takes in pride in doing his work to perfection. He cleared all the rubbish and cleaned up the place. Would highly recommend him.

    Repair Broken Front Property Wall

    Can't recommend Rhys enough. Communication from start to finish was brilliant. Rebuilt the broken wall in an afternoon and the cost was more than fair. Thanks again for all your help.
