Dan rang after the first storm to check everything behaved. Small gesture, big confidence.
Dry paths at last.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping lifted tired flags, compacted the base properly and set a neat border that frames the table. No lurching slabs, no gritty corners, just calm underfoot.

Dan designed a split level so we could tuck a barbecue out of the main space. He kept the riser shallow for easy stepping and added a discreet heat shield.
The layout flows, cables are hidden, and nothing scrapes when we slide chairs back. It feels purpose built rather than cobbled together from leftovers.

Dan did the footing for our new wall. He turned up early, cracked on and left it looking perfect.
You can tell he’s got plenty of experience because the finish is spot-on.

Dan listened more than he talked, which immediately built trust. The plan from Backhouse Construction & Landscaping included two options: dream and budget.
He walked us through both without any pressure, explaining where compromise actually works. His professionalism and warmth are worth more than glossy brochures. We’d recommend him in a heartbeat.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping rebuilt our base and finished in resin. The manhole disappears in the pattern and rain clears fast.
Looks quality.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping fitted a matching gate with Yale latch. Kids can play without wandering and the hinge action feels smooth.
Quick job and tidy site.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping gave a clear, honest quote and stuck to it. They protected the driveway, stacked spoil tidily and recycled what they could.
Dan set a gentle curve on the trench so it reads natural under turf. The first big storm since and the garden held its shape. No lakes, no mud trails, just a calm, functioning space. Class work.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping worked a small miracle on our uneven back garden. Dan levelled the ground, sorted proper drainage and fitted the turf neatly around my flowerbeds.
We had friends over that weekend and everyone commented on how real it looked. Even my dad, who hates anything artificial, had to admit it looked amazing. It’s been a joy not having to drag the mower out every week.

Dan measured, listened, then placed the pizza oven so the peel clears the post. He kept cables out of sight and moved the fridge just enough that no one bumps it.
My favourite touch is the towel hook that my hand finds without thinking.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping left a uniform finish with no chatter marks. Edges cut clean and the lane was swept nightly.

Dan turned up cheerful on a grim Tuesday and walked the garden with me, listening while I rattled through years of puddle drama. He used dye and a hose to prove where the water stalled, then proposed a short run to a small soakaway.
The trench was cut cleanly and the gravel tucked back like a zipper. He swept, rinsed and left a few notes on aftercare. Two storms later the lawn had bounce not sludge. Calm person, tidy work, sensible advice. Exactly what we needed.
