Not being a large a firm we don't take on large building sites. However we do take on small to medium size new builds. We are happy to work and price from drawings. All work is carried to out to NHBC standards and adheres to building control and architects specifications.

We have carried out many conservation jobs throughout Kent in brickwork, stone and flint; working closely with conservation officers, which can incorporate new builds or repairs. Click on the image to see this building sympathetically restored.

We are happy to take on block-paving. As you may know traditional block-paving is laid on hard core and sand, however we are unique because we lay our block-paving on a wet bed. This stops any spreading or sinking. This also helps to prevent weeds from growing.

Flint and stone is very specialised, we can advise you on the different limes, sand/cement mixes and/or grit, for example hydrated lime for stone and brickwork and hydraulic for flint. The flint also comes napped and un-napped, according to requirements.

After completing my apprenticeship in December 1992 I was one of the last of the five year City and Guild apprenticeships. This incorporated over five years brickwork, plastering, drainage and DPC work. This gave me a unique insight into the entire building trade, as modern apprenticeships only last a year or two.

It was instilled in me that quality always came first as did the customer's needs and requirements. This put me in good stead as I went self-employed shortly afterwards and have enjoyed producing quality work whether it be on a garden wall, a bespoke new build or conservaton work. 

Also I consider myself lucky that my team and I enjoy all aspects of the services that we provide.
