I paid £2,000 for a dropped kerb, deposit, licese fee, application fee, kerbs, of which he has nothing and refuses to even return my money. I have been asking for a return the last 2 months but always come with excuses. I have been waiting for this job over 6-8 months, its hopeless. HE HAS STOLEN MY MONEY and refuses to give back unless i remove my reviews. He broke into the footpath without permision. AVOID Rhys, he is effectively a scammer, check his company house and failed businesses. Do not be swayed by the fake reviews on Checkatrade.

Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for Rowe Contractors, including the highlights above. The 22 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
It annoys me that this company has been let back on here to disappoint other customers. I activated the Checkatrade guarantee and got maximum payout and got them removed. but they should be removed permanently. They clearly get fake reviews to build their score then go out and do their worst in the community and I mean their worst!
Failed to complete the work to the agreed standard and once they had been paid they completely stopped communication. There is a word for this kind of builder and it originates in the wild west. Drains not connected to anything, not fitted properly, site not cleared properly.
