– Design of the concrete base, tiling, and integration in to our existing patio
– Specifying the materials to be used
– Managing the procurement of the materials
– Managing the ground preparation and soil removal

The project was completed in a timely manner and on budget. I was impressed by the modern equipment used by your team - the team were professional and courteous. The project has exceeded our expectations and we look forward to using it for years to come.

”I highly recommend Roddy as a reliable and skilled manager for any construction project. With his attention to detail, commitment to quality, and track record of completing projects on time and within budget, he consistently delivered excellent results on a number of projects for me. Roddy's professionalism and dedication ensured that every project was delivered to the highest standards and with his expertise in handling various construction challenges with his team of experienced professionals he is a great choice for any building (construction) requirements.

”I am extremely pleased with the work that has been undertaken by Roddy from Umbria la Vita. He was happy to talk through all my options with me and even obtained a quote for an alternative way of replacing my windows. With great care and attention to detail he has given the original kitchen window a whole new lease of life which will last for many years (something which two Italian workmen had told me couldn’t be done and to just replace my windows with new ones). His customer service was outstanding sending me photos and videos as the work progressed as well as keeping me up to date about his task for each day he was working at the house. I would not hesitate in recommending him for any of your needs as he is honest, trust worthy and reliable. Thank you Roddy.

”When we purchased our newly constructed country house here in Umbria we knew that we wanted a natural, rustic Umbrian look. We had always admired handrails on stairways that we had seen which were made from a single tree branch. After talking about this idea with Roddy Gee, he instantly understood what we wanted, he knew where to find the best piece of castagna for the project and he knew how to transform this piece of wood into a beautiful handrail. Within days he was at the house, mounting it in place on our long stairway. We love it! It is a masterful piece. Everyone comments on it when they enter the house and it has become a focal point of our entryway. We couldn't be happier!

”We hired Roddy to carry out a number of jobs on our property. The first and biggest involved partially rebuilding and completely refinishing a large deck in front of the house, not an easy job given the deck’s position on the side of a hill, and included reinforcing the foundations and replacing and extending one of the rain gutters. The second job involved removing a sun arbour and an above ground pool and then re-landscaping the cleared area. The third job consisted in removing a wooden gate to the driveway and arranging for the production and installation of a new iron gate. Roddy clearly explained the cost and work required by each of these jobs and all were completed on time and on budget with excellent results to show for it. We will not hesitate to call upon Roddy’s services in the future.
