We recently completed a full upgrade from an existing square line guttering and downpipe system that was leaking in several locations to a brand-new brown deepflow guttering system.

The new deepflow setup not only gives the property a cleaner, more modern finish, but also provides improved water handling — perfect for the unpredictable UK weather 🌧️

▪️Old guttering removed
▪️ New brown deepflow system installed
▪️ New matching downpipes fitted
▪️ Improved drainage & appearance

Another happy customer and another property protected for years to come!

Repairs carried out to this property after damage was caused to the roughcast whilst having new windows and doors installed.

The customer requested that the new render be left smooth to give a lintel effect above the living room window so it could then be painted 👌

Out with the old, in with the new 👷‍♂️

Another garage transformation completed! We stripped the roof right back, removing all existing felt and rotten timber deck to get a solid starting point. The roof was then re-boarded using 18mm OSB timber sheets, creating a strong and reliable base.

To finish, we installed a durable POLYGLASS / POLYSHEILD 3-layer felt system, ensuring long-lasting protection against the elements.

The job didn’t stop there — we also applied a fresh 6mm clean granite chip roughcast to the bare block walls, giving the garage a clean, modern finish. To top it all off, we fitted an 18mm white UPVC fascia board for a sharp, low-maintenance edge.

A nice upgrade from top to bottom, built to last 💪

Transforming this chimney back to its best 🏠 🔨

We’ve carefully stripped away the existing roughcast to expose a solid base, then reinforced the structure with a durable diamond lath mesh for added strength and longevity.

From there, we applied two coats of a properly gauged mortar mix, enhanced with brown colouring to seamlessly blend with the existing building. To complete the job, we finished with a buff 390 harling chip, giving a clean, traditional look that stands the test of time.

Quality workmanship and attention to detail from start to finish.
