The work was carried out according to design using good quality materials. The work was done in excellent time as machinery could be used ie: mini digger to remove lawn and underlying soil, grabber lorry to lift 10 tons soil over fence and another to bring in 9 tons fresh, plant ready soil for the beds. The path and pergola were well made demonstrating skill, expertise and speed. Stones and paving used matched or complemented paving already in garden. Overall, I am delighted with the work which took a total of 3 and a half days in between heavy showers of rain.

Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Detailed reviews
Steve is a quality builder, utterly professional from years of experience with a very wide and deep knowledge base. He is very personable and we got on as friends from the off. He removed the wall to create an open plan kitchen/diner, installing a steel beam and opened out the chimney breast to fit a hob within, all done under building regs with inspections from the local council, to which the inspectors were also impressed with the quality of the work. Steve also knew of other trades persons to help me finish the project, such as a gas and kitchen fitters for advice. The all round solution.
Since moving into our new property in June 2020 we have used Bluestar as our principal contractor. Steve and his team have helped us with remodelling our kitchen diner, laying flooring, installing a new downstairs bathroom, laying a slab for our pub shed, installing two patios complete with raised beds and adjoining paths and installing a new driveway and surrounding fencing… that’s a lot of graft! Throughout every phase of these works we’ve found Bluestar to be reliable, honest, punctual, tidy and great value for money. Whatever project comes next, these guys will be our first choice.

Worth checking yourself
Only a few public reviews are shown. Ask for recent references you can contact.
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.
Get an itemised quote that separates plants and materials, any machinery or skip hire, and labour. A vague 'garden makeover' lump sum hides where the money goes and makes extra charges easy to add later.
Be wary of paying a large sum up front 'for materials'. Agree staged payments against work you can see completed, especially for hard landscaping like patios, decking, paving or driveways.
Tree work and anything near a boundary can be regulated. Protected trees and conservation areas often need permission, and removing a protected tree can be an offence. Confirm what is allowed, and that they carry public-liability insurance, before work starts.
