Why John

Got a block that needs sorting?

He'll tell you the right time to do it

"His advice and patience helped us schedule the work for the right time of year so that both areas and the driveway turned out the best."
Rod, Google review

Nothing goes in the too-hard basket

"Nothing too much trouble. Nice having people work with you not everything in the 'too hard basket'"
Jan, Google review

Bigger gear when the job needs it

John runs the Bobcat, the tipper and the trencher, and can get hold of bigger machines when a job calls for them.

"John did a sensational job removing my pool and creating a garden. His advice & knowledge made the process seamless. I can't recommend John & Dog Rocks South West enough."

"John was incredibly helpful and skilled in all aspects of the big drive way that John advised on and then did it all in a few very long days. Always polite, cooperative and at a darn very competitive price. Highly recommended."
