Early in 2014 I purchased a home in Lennox Head which required external landscaping. I interviewed various contractors and settled on a proposal from Steve. As I was returning to Sydney I needed a contractor who could complete the work unsupervised and my assessment of Steve was correct, he completed the work on time and on budget and certainly exceeded my expectations.
As Steve is a Qualified and Licensed Stone Mason and also trained to build wood fired Kilns and Ovens I contracted Steve to build my Wood Fired Pizza oven. Steve constructed the base of the oven and the oven itself with great skill and in accordance with Best Practice for such a structure.
I use the oven three or four times a week and have found it easy to light, get to the required cooking temperature. It does not matter if I am baking bread, roasting beef, lamb, pork or making pizza the oven is excellent and our first choice when entertaining.
I have seen many examples of Steve’s work and have no hesitation in recommending Steve as a skilled landscaper, builder of rock walls, BBQ’s and outdoor wood fired ovens. I must also advise that Steve was pleasant, professional, hard working and easy to get on with, rare these days with many contractors. If you have any doubts about contracting Steve for work, give him the job anyway, he will not let you down.
For any further information or to inspect the landscaping, paving and wood fired oven Steve built for me please do not hesitate to contact me.
