Real feedback from real homeowners across the Bay of Plenty.
"I got Jacob and his team to build a 2 Tier retaining wall, fencing and a picture frame deck and was so happy with the outcome. I was nervous finding a company as had never done this before but from initial quote through to the finished product I could not be happier. They were just so easy to deal with and they really seemed to care about the job like it was their own property."
Tauranga
"Jacob did an outstanding job replacing our channel drain. From start to finish, he was professional, reliable, and clearly takes pride in his work. He explained everything clearly, turned up on time, and worked efficiently while keeping the area tidy. It's not easy to find tradespeople who are both skilled and genuinely easy to deal with, but Jacob ticked all the boxes."
Tauranga
"Jacob was exceptional with communication and ensuring clear, common understanding from the start and importantly throughout the project. The quality of the work is great — the walls are a pleasure to look at every day. They are a great team to work with."

"Down to Earth by name — Down to Earth by nature. I was extremely impressed with the pragmatism shown in overcoming issues on a complex site. Their workmanship is very very good, the site was left very safe and tidy, and all variations were invoiced in a clear and fair way. I highly recommend Jacob and his team!"

"Their workmanship was great quality and it's all still looking good 18 months later. We were kept informed throughout the project, the team were friendly and the site was continuously kept tidy. No question was too much of a hassle. Would happily use Down to Earth again and recommend them to anyone."
