Neil Bowen.
My many years of building and construction experience stem around working for a number of building companies. Being a registered builder, after a while I had decided to start out in my own business, Eltham Home Improvements, of which I have proudly toiled for 35 years.

A working partnership was formed by two separate business's being Eltham Home Improvements (Neil Bowen) and Bells Maintenance & Mobile Carpentry (Ken Bell) to form Decks and Pergolas back in approximately 1997.
This website was formed back in October 2005 and is still going strong today after some recent cosmetic changes. Both Ken and I thank you all for visiting our site, we are happy with the number of viewings and support we have from ongoing word of mouth. We have a photo gallery we keep adding to for your enjoyment and possibly give you ideas for you own homes, see if your finished home and pride and joy is featured in our album's...

Having spent many years outdoors now, being able to build for a living is very satisfying, there is a great deal involved getting things right. Also having had teachers from the old school of carpentry, has given a better understanding of the right way to build and no shortcuts, my partner Neil has been and still is, my best council/mentor.
The ability to build has become a way of life, and can not see it being any different in the future. Every day brings new challenges. Building decks and pergolas along with small renovations and extensions, is a way of life that I am very grateful for.
