Property Extensions
Absolute disaster. promised a 3 x 5m patio. Half delivered 2.2 x 5m. promised a 3 x 5m shed, but delivered 2.9 x 5m. can not measure and calls himself an Engineer! Retaining wall: built without a foundation / digging, just built on top of the ground. Blocks not joined property and taken apart with a push. Absolute cow boy. just told him to finish, paid him and finishing the rest myself. More...

Really sorry you feel that way but There is two sides to every story.. garden room is 3.1x 5.2m at base. solid concrete wall with rebars to be inserted , told not to finish it and customer left a message with very bad language despite offering to re do it to his liking at no cost but still complaining, there is not much you could do with such a customer. Any issues can be resolved by talking. As far as we are concerned , we did and tried everything to keep him happy. Sometimes you just can’t win.
