Testimonials
From start to finish David did the most wonderful job of building 'Diana;s Den', which will be my place of relaxation in the garden. The work of planning, organising and building was meticulously communicated and carried out. It was a real pleasure to have him and the men who worked with him, to build the Den so well, with attention to detail, and making the building as eco friendly as possible in the way it is connected with its living roof to attract bees and other insects, the use of eco friendly paints etc. I cannot thank him enough and I am sure nobody could of done a better job.
