We would highly recommend them. A great job very well done, Thank you Nick."

The rest was retaining walls, feeding trough, waste materials, a conifer hedge and general debris., leaving selected trees untouched and undamaged. It took 3 days, and the whole thing was supervised by Nick. They did an amazing job, levelling the ground on completion and taking away all the rubbish. Good price and nice to have around. Polite and pleasant and no trouble. Would definitely use again. Cannot recommend highly enough."

Not only do these guys do a very good job within a highly competitive quote, but of all the workers who have been on-site in the last three years (and there have been many) Nick's team are always incredibly hard-working, very polite, and nothing is too much trouble. I'll be calling Nick again next year when I get around to sorting out a patio surrounding a pond. I know I will get a first-class job done. Highly recommended."

Zoe Yeomans

"We had Nick and crew dig 40m of French Drain to divert field run off from our property. They were certainly hard working, starting at 08:00 and working through some poor weather conditions (rain and snow) until the job was done. I had reservations about tackling this job at this time of year (February) due to possibility of churning up the ground but they lay boarding out to minimise this which showed that these guys knew what they were doing. They had all the gear as well, most impressive. If there was a problem or a decision required Nick was there to ask and suggest action. Altogether we are well pleased with the work and would certainly use them again. Thanks Nick."

Ashik Salim

"N Plant have recently completed a new concrete yard at the front and side of our industrial units. This also included tarmac work to the pavement areas. From start to finish, Nick and his team have shown professionalism and quality work throughout. I was able ensure that business was not interrupted while the work was taking place, and the plan for the yard was followed to perfection. I had to wait a few weeks before they could start but it was worth the wait. They certainly have the kit to take on any size job. \Highly recommended."

Mart S

"We originally brought Nick in to provide a french drain on our property, he also agreed to complete a patio for us at the same time. Nick and the team were extremly hard working, doing long hours to ensure that the job was completed. They have a wealth of equipment enabling them to cope with every eventuallity. Rain? No problem, up pops a shelter. Dark? They have lights. The site was always clean and tidy, everything put away at the end of the day. Every morning Nick would ask if there were any changes to our plan or anything that we were not happy with, enabling us to easily keep the job on track and the finished article was exactly what we were hoping for. Thank you Nick!"
