A job I got finished for a lovely family in lower Compton before my holiday, was good fun to do this. Dug out all footings and poured with a strong mix of concrete, New step at the gate to stop the dog from digging his way out of the garden, also 2 courses of 3 inch stone with a slab on top of a 1.2m by 1.2m square for a fire pit which turned out lovely in the end. Also a length of 3 inch stone from the house up the garden to separate the flower bed from the lawn, then to finish I raked out and re pointed the patio with a mushroom easy joint resin. Note I did not do the patio myself, I just raked out existing mortar and filled with easy joint to finish.

Some videos to follow 🙂

Got this little job over the line today, not enough hours in the day to take the blues out this visit but they will come out when I go back in a few weeks to do some more work on the property. Managed to chase out the 3/4 and made it work brickwork. Bricks are the best match I could get considering the original has been discontinued according to some outlets. Glad how it turned out to be fair.

Was a pleasure thanks to the customer who was great and I’ll see you in a few weeks for more.

Another happy customer ☺️

A chimney I finished up last week. Second job completed in less than a month.

Had great fun building this and I took my time with it, different style or mortar and bricks that I’m used too but I enjoyed it either way and a huge thanks to my good old friend Jake Gleed for smashing the lead work out for me.

On to the next 🙂

Note that the customer did not mind that I put my handprint on the finish 🙂
