The family history means, his skilled are built on a family tradition giving him skills beyond his 25 years in the trade.
Throughout those years he has worked on a wide variety of projects, including luxury apartments in London, bar and shop fit outs, large scale shuttering and structural works, refurbishments, new builds, and even lending his skills for free to help people less fortunate on BBC DIY SOS.
This has all added up to give Matthew a huge understanding of the building trade, knowing what the customer wants and all the available possibilities to ensure that for each project so every trade turns up at the right time so the whole contract runs as smoothly as possible to reduce the time on site and disruption caused by the works.
