I thought about having it for similar reasons but a friend has some and I don't think it looks great. It looked alright when they first got it but is hasn't worn too well IMO. I'm now thinking of going for a meadowy grass area now.
Hi will,
Excellent.
How are his rates?
Tony just did my back garden. We decided on gravel as it's shady and the grass never grew. I'm so happy with the result. Tony is great, very nice bloke and trustworthy. I was holed up in hospital when he worked on my garden. Highly recommend him. Thanks sparkybird.
Tony is ace
I can recommend Jovaner without reservation. He recently finished painting all of the outside of our Victorian house ie woodwork, masonry & gutters/down-pipes and carried out a quite exceptional job. We have had it done a few times since we moved here just under 20 years ago, but I can honestly say that for the first time it looks spanking brand new again! Window frames that were rotten in places have been restored to their original condition; sash windows that only opened with an effort now run up and down smoothly; cracks that were still visibly filled can no longer be seen; pipes were all removed, rubbed down, sealed and painted before being put back. We had a problem with a section of the wall outside the lounge (paint flaking in places and falling off) that no-one has ever got to the bottom of - until now. Because his preparation is so thorough, after sanding the painted masonry properly Jovaner discovered a number of small (and not so small) cracks that allowed water to get into the brickwork. He explained how the bricks 'suck up' the water and proposed an affordable solution (filling the cracks and then applying a flexible paint-on rubber strip along the base of the house). Jovaner takes a real pride in his work which he approaches with a care and professionalism I have never come across before. It still puts a smile on my face to go outside and see what he's achieved! I'm so pleased we chose him from all the quotes we obtained, after seeing one of the recommendations on another site. I am happy for Jovaner to give my name and number to anyone who is considering whether to use him. You can phone Jovaner on 07450 985602.
Are you me? I need the same thing doing
Did you get one and woukd you recommend them?
I didn't. Long story! I can PM you. Do you just need a chippie? Tony (gardener) gave me a number for a builder. You could try him?
I need plumber and chippie
Not to worry thanks for the heads up I'll try your other guy and let you know how I get on. No he didn't but sounded like a nice guy and sorry he couldn't have helped.
Ta minnie - will give him ring as well.
