Don’t Just Take Our Word For It

Here’s what our customer say about us

Bolney was the first Project where we worked with the team at Lion, we have since worked together at several other basements and new build substructure projects. It is always a pleasure to work with the team, Nick and Rob are forever going above and beyond to ensure perfection. They are non-combative and really great problem solvers

BolneyMick King Ltd

We found the company Lion via an internet search engine and we are relieved that we did. The Lion team worked through the depths of a very wet autumn / winter, never missing a day, on a sloping site with difficult ground conditions to deliver our fabulous, Architect-led, new home for one of our most valued Clients. Nick and Rob worked closely with us across many sample panels to find the correct finish for our exposed concrete surfaces and then delivered that finish on a grand scale throughout the property. The large swimming pool and the bespoke exposed in-situ RC staircase are particular highlights of this property.

Touchwood HouseHarfrey Ltd.

We employed the team at Lion as the Principal Contractor at our structural renovation and envelope project in Brighton. We have enjoyed working with Nick and Rob for 18months, particularly their collaborative and professional approach to managing our various Architects, Designers and Specialist Subcontractors. It has been a challenging project bringing the original building back to life, but we are more than happy with the results. We look forward to working with Lion again in the future.
