About

Hello, I’m John

I am a time served bricklayer and general builder with experience across residential, commercial and industrial building sectors.

My journey in construction started fresh from college in ’98 where I’d qualified to NVQ Level III as a bricklayer.

From here after successfully completing a 3 year apprenticeship as a refractory furnace bricklayer in the steel industry, I was eager to get out into the world of work to develop my skills and broaden my horizons.

It wasn’t too long before I’d made the move to large commercial building sites, working for many of the national construction companies, as a bricklayer mainly, but more broadly working on everything from single residential dwellings to large housing estates, shopping centres, commercial buildings and the like.

Over the subsequent decade I’d refined and developed my skills and experience sufficiently in many aspects of construction. I’d not only became skilled in brickwork, blockwork, stonework and masonry, but many other aspects of building too – landscaping and groundworks, roofing, window installation, paving and planning and excavation to name a few.

Feeling confident in my skills and connections across the industry it became clear I was in a great position to start pursuing my own work, and that’s exactly what I did.

In 2008 this company was formed.

Today I have team of builders that work for and with me regularly who are qualified and skilled in a range of trades, and I have a great many more contacts and trusted partners that I work with and alongside across the whole region.

It was a very busy time setting up our new shop at Glossop Outdoor Market, I could not have done it without the amazing skills of John and his team.
These guys went above and beyond to make sure I opened on time.

Top man, top job. John helped us out with short notice. The brickwork is spot on and everyone who sees it comments on the quality. No hesitations having him back, and we will for the next job. Helpful with advice and guidance, and most of all the wife is over the moon.
