D & M Hose
Glenn's restumping crew draws specific praise for patient quoting and professional follow-through on structural jobs.
The one pattern worth flagging honestly is responsiveness: three separate reviewers across multiple years described leaving quote requests that were never returned, including one who waited four months after a follow-up call. That's enough of a pattern to be worth knowing about before you rely on them for a time-sensitive job — if you're scheduling around other trades, confirm explicitly that a quote visit is booked before you put them in your schedule. For the yard side — buying recycled timber, pavers, soil, or decorative items — reviews are mostly positive and the experience appears more straightforward.

About D & M Hose
Glenn leads the restumping and house-raising side of the business, and the reviews that name him specifically praise his patience during quoting, his clear communication throughout the job, and a final price that customers felt was reasonable for the scope of work involved. Beyond structural work, D & M Hose operates what amounts to a second business on the same site: a yard stocked with recycled timbers, pavers, landscape supplies, sand, garden soil, statues, fountains, and assorted secondhand building materials — making it something of a one-stop salvage and landscaping yard for renovators in the Fraser Coast region. Shane is called out by name for quick, courteous service, and Mark draws praise from walk-in customers looking for supplies. The business has been active for roughly 17 years, which gives it a depth of local knowledge that shorter-lived operators can't match — particularly useful when dealing with older Queensland homes that need restumping or have non-standard construction. The yard side suits people browsing for recycled materials or landscaping products, while the trades side is aimed squarely at homeowners needing house stumps replaced or structural work on Queensland-style homes. Those two quite different offerings sitting under one roof can make the business harder to categorise, but for Maryborough-area homeowners with a restumping or salvage materials need, it's worth knowing both arms exist.
Best for: homeowners needing house restumping or steel stump replacement on Queensland-style homes, renovators sourcing recycled timber and secondhand building materials, and locals looking for landscape supplies like sand, soil, or decorative garden pieces.

What does D & M Hose actually specialise in — is it demolition, restumping, or the yard?+
The business runs two distinct arms. The trade side — led by Glenn — focuses on house restumping and structural work on Queensland-style homes, including steel stump replacement. The yard side stocks recycled timber, secondhand building materials, pavers, sand, garden soil, statues, and fountains. The demolition category listing is a little misleading; restumping and salvage materials are what most customers describe in reviews.
What do customers say about Glenn and the restumping team?+
Customers who had Glenn quote their restumping work specifically praised his knowledge, patience in explaining what was involved, and the way he communicated as the job progressed. Shane is also named by one reviewer for prompt, courteous service. The finished work drew positive feedback on professionalism and pricing. Reviews don't mention a large crew, so this appears to be a relatively small operation for trade jobs.
How responsive is D & M Hose to quote requests?+
This is worth paying attention to before you book them in around other trades. Three separate reviewers — across different years — described leaving quote requests that were never followed up, with wait times ranging from weeks to months. If you do call, confirm an actual appointment date rather than relying on a callback promise. The pattern appears specific to the trade/quote side rather than walk-in yard visits.
What can I buy from the yard, and how is pricing?+
The yard stocks recycled and secondhand timber, pavers, garden soil, sand, gravel, outdoor statues, fountains, and general building materials useful for renovations. Most customers found pricing reasonable, with statues and fountains specifically mentioned as good value. One reviewer felt secondhand goods were priced too high, so it's worth comparing if price is your main concern. Staff helpfulness in the yard gets positive mentions, particularly Mark.
Does D & M Hose service areas outside Maryborough?+
One review specifically mentions restumping work at a property west of Maryborough, suggesting the trade side will travel regionally within the Fraser Coast area. Reviews don't specify a clear service radius for trade jobs, so confirm your location when you call. The yard is a walk-in operation based in Maryborough itself.
