A few recent testimonials from satisfied customers, emphasizing craftsmanship, reliability, and professionalism.
“We would not hesitate in recommending Ryan French for any stonework repairs. We have followed his work on social media for sometime and it is clear he is a very well trained Artisan with a real passion for his craft. Ryan repaired stonework to our house and created a sandstone house sign with chiselled lettering. We are over the moon with the end result. He started the job when he said he would and kept us up to date throughout as to when he would be back and what he would be doing. He provided a fair estimate and the work carried out was of the highest standard. He and his apprentice were very mannerly and respectful of us and the property, cleaning up thoroughly and hosing down surfaces after each visit.
We have nothing negative to say at all.”
"Absolutely love the Green man carved by Ryan. I've had three commissions done by Ryan, and all are wonderful.
I'd highly recommend this company. They're professional, friendly and always deliver work of the highest caliber."

He started the works on time, completed the works within the timescale proposed, he arranged a roofer to carry out additional works and he left the property clean and clear of debris. The recent weather has been a very good test for the work he carried out and so far so good. Ryan was a pleasure to deal with from start to end and I would have no hesitation in recommending him.”
