Reviewed by John on 21/3/2013

I found Richell Construction very reliable in that they turned up on time and worked efficiently completing the rebuild of the garden wall in good time. This was despite very adverse weather conditions which caused several pauses in the process to avoid the risk of frost affecting the work.The brickwork appears to be of a very high standard. I am confident enough to use them again for future brickwork.
