I had Brendan and his son fix issues with leaks in the front and back of my house due to poor cavity tray installation. He came out promptly after contacting him to give me a quote and provided an accurate price as well as date for when he could complete the work. Brendan had the issues fixed in a week. He explained the work carried out to rectify the problems to me more than once to make sure I understood everything. Very reliable service from a decent guy who has confidence in the work he undertakes. It was refreshing to be met with an honest approach. Would recommend to anyone thinking of using this company

Hired Brendan to replace old 30m2 patio. Only builder willing to lift old patio slabs and not drop new ones on top.
Fitted drainage under new patio and built a small retaining wall between patio and lawn to really set it off.
Finished the job by replacing dated side gate and adding new fence panels.
Delighted with work, Brendan takes a great pride in his work and makes sure his customers happy.
Will use his services again and I highly recommend you do too.

We listed a job on MyBuilder and McKinley and Sons were one of the companies who responded. Brendan arrived quickly to look at the work needed and gave us a prompt quote, which was thorough and inevitably the most competitive. Once we'd agreed a timescale and deposit, the work was carried out quickly, neatly and to a high standard. No fuss, just reliable, quality work. We're already hoping to use McKinley and Sons again for another project. Thanks!

Fantastic job and service from McKinley & Sons (Brendan). They replaced our old and dated 70s front steps with grey granite - looks stunning. Very happy with the professional service and quality of the workmanship. Would definitely recommend.

A job extremely well done! I am very pleased with all the work carried out by Mr McKinley, the rendering and new surrounds for my windows, has improved the look of my bungalow greatly. Mr McKinley was very professional, punctual and the work was carried out to a very high standard. He was also a very pleasant gentleman and easy to deal with.

McKinley and Sons did a great job repointing the gable end of the house.
During some bad weather a damp patch appeared on an internal wall so I got a few companies around for quotes. Brendan responded quickly, walked me through the likely causes and how to sort.
Brendan gave a competitive price to repair the whole gable end as you can clearly see the damage there. However, as out budget is tight, Brendan sorted the area which caused the damp patch and the more inaccessible sections while the scaffolding was up. This means he can come back at a later date to finish the work but keep the costs down.
I’m no builder but the workmanship looks fantastic. Brendan is also super approachable and keeps you fully informed on the process/progress.
I will gladly get Brendan back to finish the gable and any future building work. I would also wholeheartedly recommend him to others and some of my neighbours, who have similar mortar issues, already have him working on their houses.

First Class work across all trades provided each one very neat, tidy, punctual and reliable, Brendan who did most of the work himself was excellent liasing with building control and keeping us up to date and included at every stage of the works making it a stress free process… have Brendan Booked in for further room extension and paved Patio area… would highly recommend 👍
Thanks Colin
