We were very happy with all the work John did for us from start to finish. We could not find fault with any of his work. We would recommend John to anyone. He has a great manner and is very easy to get on with.
We found John excellent to work with. When we didn't have the time he looked after everything for us. Price wise he was very affordable and we were delighted with our new extension.
We got on great with John. He explained everything to us and sorted out all the paper work and everything else needed. We found his knowledge of the construction business of great benefit. He helped us get the ball rolling with pricing and taking on a builder. He also helped us in obtaining S.E.A.I. grants. We would have no hesitation in recommending John.
