Garden wall 🧱
I would highly recommend Holmes Construction. Lewis responded to my request to finish a small garden wall through this site. Came to quote on the day he said he would. Agreed a date to complete the work and turned up bright and breezy. Polite, respectful and hard working, the work is to a very high standard and the clean up was great - all for a very fair price. I have no hesitation to recommend or use again. Brilliant work. Thanks Lewis and Leon, very happy customers 😀

Paving
Lewis and the team worked so hard to complete our patio. Great communication throughout, helped advise on the right slabs to fit in to garden - they even fixed a bit of patio left a mess by other builders. Would definitely use again and have already recommended to others. No hesitation to say we're really happy we chose them to complete our project.
