βThe full list
Every service, in detail
Man and Digger
Steve and the machine as one hire. A 2 tonne mini digger, or the Bobcat micro digger where the gate is tight, paired with a dumper so the spoil keeps moving. Footings, dugouts, trenching and muck away, quoted after a site visit and completed in days, not weeks.
View β 02Groundwork
The unglamorous work everything else stands on. Site clearance, excavation to depth, foundations and footings, drainage and soakaways, compacted bases for slabs and buildings. Done right, the bricklayer, the builder and the patio all land on ground that will not move.
View β 03Landscape Gardening
For gardens that need more than a tidy-up. Ground re-graded, topsoil placed, lawns seeded or turfed, beds shaped, and the heavy work handled by the same machines that did the dig. One contractor from rough plot to finished garden, with no gap between trades.
View β 04Bricklaying
Garden walls, retaining walls and brickwork built on footings dug and poured properly. Because Steve does the groundwork too, the wall and the trench it stands in are one job, one quote and one person responsible for both, which is rarer than it should be.
View β 05Driveways
Old surfaces lifted, the dig taken to proper sub-base depth, and the layers compacted so the finish lasts. Gravel laid complete, or the base handed over ready for block paving or resin. Drainage is planned in from the start so water goes where it should.
View β 06Garden Clearance
Overgrown plots, dead stumps, old sheds, failed patios and decades of buried rubble: cleared, loaded and carted away. The digger does in a day what hand-clearing does in a fortnight, and the site is handed back level, tidy and ready for whatever comes next.
View β 07Patios
The base decides whether a patio lasts, so the base gets the attention. Dug to depth, compacted in layers, laid square and level with falls that send rainwater away from the house. Old sinking patios are lifted and rebuilt on the base they always needed.
View β 08Power Washing
The cheapest transformation on this list. Driveways, patios and paths deep-cleaned back to their real colour, moss and grime gone, joints re-sanded where they need it. Often booked to finish off another job, sometimes well worth booking as the whole job itself.
