Gardening

I'll get the positives out of the way first.

If it's muscle and not brain/tidy work you need, they are OK. A chimney was taken down and that seems to have been done well, getting me out of a sticky situation with a bunch of crooks armed with a white van and posing as 'buliders'. They also admirably waded into an overgrown garden and chopped sizeable trees down and cleared the vegetation. Pricewise they started off OK with that, although the price mysteriously went from 450 on the phone to 600 in person because he said 'didn't have a good look' although he was told he could enter the garden and get a good look. Perhaps that should have been a red flag moment.

We eventually had to clean the fascia soffits ourselves, cracked flags were replaced but left in a ridiculous manner, and I am still waiting for the roof to be sealed 4 weeks later. Plus a receipt that John knew I needed desperately to help with the other bunch of crooks must still be in the post.

Regarding other bits and bobs, most were done in a haphazard, rushed and untidy manner (pics available). Fence panels were untidy and had screws/nails sticking out. Some fence panels are crooked and botched. Driveway gates were left in an appalling state and some poor excuse was given about needing WD40 (if you agree to pay for gates to be fitted, you don;t expect to be told that they don't swing because they are stiff - you expect them to open and close perfectly).

The driveway was put in by some guys that did not seem to be from the same firm. That is a minor quibble compared to the additional cost of 600.00 for 2 metres of 30.00 plastic drains that don't appear to be flowing into the drain system (so will overflow). Even worse are the driveway edgings that crumbled and fell apart after 1 week with the first bit of rain/wind. I have texted and emailed for this to be remedied but to no avail. We havd to do it ourselves today being reliably informed that a few centimetres of cement on grass is hopelessly inadequate to hold edgings in and that the blocks will soon start to come out without solid edgings.

In sum, constantly being asked for payment BEFORE the job is done, haggling over prices and what was agreed on, and very messy work (fotos available) mean I wouldn't choose this firm again except for vrute force jobs such as a heavily overgrown garden (and only then after putting in writing what will be done, how it will be left, and that payment comes with a satisfactory COMPLETIOn of the work).

I'll get the positives out of the way first.

If it is muscle and not brain/tidy work you need, they are OK for that. They admirably ripped through an overgrown garden and chopped sizeable trees down and cleared the vegetation away. Pricewise they started off OK, although the price mysteriously went from 450 on the telephone to 600 in person because John said he 'didn't have a good look' although was told he could go into the garden and get a good look to give an accurate price. Perhaps that should have been a red flag moment.

By happy coincidence, John's brother happened to be a roofer and he offered to get me out of a crappy situation with some criminals posing as builders. 3000 to take a chimney down and other bits and bobs seemed fair enough but we had to eventually clean the fascia soffits ourselves and I am still waiting for the roof to be sealed 3 weeks later. And a receipt that John knew I needed desperately to help with the other bunch of crooks must still be in the post.

The driveway we agreed on was put in by some guys that did not seem to be from the same firm. That is a minor quibble compared to the additional cost of 600.00 for 2 metres of drains that cost 30.00 at BnQ, as well as edgings that crumbled and fell apart after 1 week with the first rain/windy weather. I have texted, called and emailed twice to seek remedy but there has been no response, so we are doing it ourselves after being reliably informed that a few centimetres of cement on grass is a pathetic way to hold edgings in.

In sum, constantly being asked for money BEFORE the job is done, haggling over prices and what was agreed on, and very messy work meant I would not choose this firm again except for chopping down trees (and only after making sure I get everything in writing what will be done and how it will be left and that payment is only AFTER the job is done to a satisfactory standard).
