Look at the difference! πŸ₯°

The colour staining on the ceiling and walls due to the owner being a heavy smoker 🚬 !!

This room now looks lovely and fresh again. Brilliant white ceilings again and a lovely neutral shade on the walls. Something so simple but yet really makes the room look fresh again πŸ‘Œ

How are we in September already ? I have been super busy taking on all sorts of projects. From laying garden patios, painting outside of houses, fitting CCTV, replacing a roof , lots of re-wiring, PAT testing and so much more! Been a busy few months.
And as always have dealt with some lovely customers new and old :-)

Currently busy working on a block paved area for a very large motor home to be parked on ! Just in time for winter to set In so it can be parked on a dry area for the winter instead of the grass it has currently been parked on.

My goodness its been a scorcher doing this one !! Almost finished πŸ™Œ and it's starting to take shape and look fab !!

We have been busy this last week sorting a garage door for a regular customer, the customer could not open or close the garage door for the last 10 years! The garage had seen better days so we gave it a little uplift with a new double opening door and a new roof, give it a new lease of life!
