Craig got in touch quickly, gave me a rough estimate over the phone and answered all my questions. Surveyor arrived on time, gave instant quote. Price was good. Michael and (another) Craig turned up to do the job on the day, time given. Good, tidy job. Can't fault anything, from start to finish!! Would recommend!

George and his team are experienced builders, replaced my front door with a custom frame/sidelights and raising the floor level in the hallway quite quickly - in fact, they were the only who came next day, gave a quote straightaway and were ready to start in just couple of days. They also had all the necessary tools and materials, were ready to buy something additional quickly on the day - if further adjustments were required to fit everything as I asked. Thanks a lot for your help, guys!

Highly recommend. These guys did a fantastic job of constructing our pergola and decking. Very hardworking and reliable. The job was completed in the time frame agreed and to a very high standard. We would 100% use them again.

Scott has done an amazing job. The building is a very old building with very high ceilings. I will definitely contact Scott again for any further decorating work we need doing.

I recently had the pleasure of hiring Mohammed Rafi for my home renovation project, and I am absolutely thrilled with the results! From the very beginning, Mohammed demonstrated exceptional professionalism and a deep understanding of construction. His attention to detail and commitment to quality were evident in every phase of the project. He listened carefully to my ideas and offered valuable suggestions that truly enhanced the design. The craftsmanship was outstanding, and it's clear that he takes great pride in his work. Communication with Mohammed was seamless; he kept me updated throughout the project and was always available to address any questions or concerns I had. His team was punctual, respectful, and maintained a clean workspace, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. Thanks to Mohammed Rafi, my renovation was completed on time and exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable and skilled builder. I look forward to working with him again on future projects!

Piotr came very promptly, looked at the project and advised me how he would proceed. He arrived on time and worked steadily keeping me informed about what he was doing. I’m really pleased with the results. He was polite and thoughtful, tidied and replaced the furniture every night so that life wasn’t too disrupted and made the whole process very easy.
