What I do

A safe pair of hands for every job

No job too small — whether it's a few repointed joints or a whole new patio, the work is treated with the same care.

General Building Maintenance

Repairs, upkeep and odd jobs around the home — done properly, at fair local rates.

Home & Garden Improvement

Improvements inside and out, from small alterations to full garden transformations.

Lime Pointing

Traditional lime mortar pointing for older stone and brick buildings, sympathetic to the original build.

Stone Work

Stone walling, repairs and rebuilding carried out in keeping with Shropshire's traditional buildings.

Slabbing & Patios

Patios, paths and paved areas laid with care, built to last and finished tidy.

Roofing Repairs

Slipped slates, leaking valleys and general roof repairs — sorted before they become bigger problems.

Guttering Work

Gutter and downpipe repairs, replacement and cleaning to keep water away from your walls.
