Excellent Workmanship & Professional Service!
I recently had my patio slabs installed by Christophers & Sons, and I couldn't be happier with the results.
From start to finish, they were professional, reliable, and highly skilled. They provided a clear and reasonable quote, and completed the work on time.
The team was friendly, hardworking, and left everything clean and tidy after the job was done. I highly recommend Christophers & Sons to anyone looking for top-quality builders.
Would definitely use them again in the future!
