Absolutely grade A1 service - nothing to fault! Work was carried out professionally at a very good price, within agreed timescales, communication and progress updates provided at every stage.
He’s completed a number of jobs (large and small) on our Edwardian sandstone manse).
A master craftsman in every respect! (Pity there are not more like Harry in other trades!)

Harry cleaned and repointed my sandstone building in Leven, what a transformation. Harry kept me up to date with changes to schedules ( delays due to weather) and discussed areas of concerns and solution- in a non technical way. Quality craftsmanship on our own door step, you cannot get better than that. Well done on your latest award. Stay safe- Malcolm

I initially invested a total of $105,000 over a period of 5 weeks. My bonus/profit was $830,000, every attempt to make withdrawal failed and I was instructed to make another deposit of $25,000 before I can make withdrawals which I did. till now, I'm still unable to make withdrawals and all attempts to contact brokers have failed. This is very… pathetic and I felt so bad losing my investment. I did a due diligence test before investing with them but guess what I ended up getting burned. This is to create awareness, not everybody can be as lucky as I was. I'm saying this because I was able

Thanks Harry for an excellent piece of work pointing our Victorian sandstone manse. Your knowledge of everything to do with stone is outstanding and you always kept us informed about progress and when the weather meant you were not able to be with us. Your price was competitive and the quality of the finished work was of the highest standard. We would certainly ask you to quote again for any more work we needed done.Many thanks.

Harry visited a couple of times to discuss job and was very informative regarding repointing and the materials used. He kept us up to date with some issues he encountered during the course of the renovation and was very patient with questions raised by us. The finished job, complete repointing to gable end & chimney looks great.
We are very pleased with his work and would have no hesitation in providing a recommendation.

Harry did a great job repointing my house. It's an old building so I wanted someone with the expertise and experience of similar jobs to undertake the work. I could contact him easily and he completed the job when he said he would. I am very pleased with the finished job and would definitely recomment him to others.

Harry has done a great job repointing our two storey sandstone home built in 1880. The old cement mortar was removed and replaced by lime mortar. The results are very pleasing. Not only does the stonework look better, we are confident now that the stone will retain less moisture. Harry is friendly, a good communicator and an excellent stonemason.

Couldn't be more happy with the repointing. Pictures are on his site. Excellent finish which has transformed the house from a cement rendered mess to a lovely house. The guys were always helpful and discussed all aspects of what they were doing. I was so impressed that I am getting them back later in the year to do more work.

Harry took the time to come out and explain the job in detail and gave a very competitive price. On the first day of the job, there was an issue with the wall and how much stone was there. Harry dealt with the planning department who agreed with a decrease in the height without planning permission and gave them comfort based on his skills and knowledge. The end product is looking great and Harry did a good job of clearing up as well. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending him and I will be using him again for another job.

Harry paid a few visits to our house and we discussed various schemes and we finally agreed on an upgrade of damaged sandstone window surrounds and a complete limestone mortar render for the whole building. He carried out the work in an extremely professional manner keeping us fully informed as to the progress. Any problems encountered were overcome quickly. He was slightly hampered by the weather in the latter stages but was able complete all the work on schedule. The building now has a new lease of life and his workmanship fulfilled all our expectations. I can recommend Harry to anyone requiring

Not the easiest job but Harry made it look like child's play his knowledge and craftsmanship is second to none. He is very easy to get on with giving valuable insight and suggestions that added to the finished project. I would recommend Harry to undertake any project you have in mind and never be frightened to ask his opinion as he is only too happy to lend assistance/opinion.
He left the job in immaculate condition certainly would be proud to recommend him.
