THE PERSON BEHIND THE BUSINESS

Ben Emery

Clearcut is led by Ben Emery, a Licensed Building Practitioner (licence BP132898). The Restricted Building Work on every project is done or supervised under it, and you can check it on the public register any time.

Ben stays across every job from quote to handover, with a team working alongside him. The same things come up in the reviews below: clear communication, deadlines met, and a site left tidy at the end of the day.
