High quality, affordable and adaptable builder.
Posted 14 April
Great work carried out on a non standard, hard to access, fiddly glass roof. Wanted to strip it back and see if it was fixable before ordering a full replacement. Turns out it wasn't the roof that was the main issue but the craftsmanship of the original builder. Apex had the roof off, cleaned up, back on and sealed properly all in a day. Previously it leaked like a sieve and now it's completely water tight. Have more renovations planned over the summer and won't be using anyone else but Apex for the works.

Rebuilding garage facade top
Posted 26 March
Finlay, Apex Edge Developments Ltd, did an excellent job and paid every attention to detail. We had the top course and tile supports of our garage facade replaced by Finlay. He also fitted a brick to an old letterbox opening in our house wall. He gave us a very reasonable quote for a job well done. I would highly recommend and I will definitely be using him again if the need arises.

Professional and easy going
Posted 21 March
Finlay is a top man. His level of finish and professionalism is someone as young is something quite rare. As long as you have open and constructive chats and set some agreed milestones in terms of progress, costs and payment he will leave you very happy with the work he has done for you and the way he conducts himself on the job. He was very approachable to both me and my wife who had differing preferences and viewpoints. Sometimes getting tradespeople in can be a risk and you don't want to get fleeced- this is one of the good guys

Avoid entirely “We strongly advise avoiding his services.”
Posted 18 March
Our experience with Finlay was extremely disappointing. Although he appeared professional during the quotation stage, his workmanship, project management, and reliability were far below acceptable standards. A project quoted at 8–10 weeks was still unfinished after 7 months. An independent roofer confirmed serious faults with the roof and Velux installation, forcing us to pay thousands for urgent corrective work. Finlay promised reimbursement but has paid nothing and has not provided the required Building Control documents yet . We cannot recommend his services.

Need building work? Give Apex Edge Developments your business!

The service from this company was exemplary! I was contacted initially by Finlay who asked for a photo of the job which I sent. Within minutes after sending the photos I was contacted and the work was scheduled for the following day. The work was carried out on time and to a very high standard. It was a small brickwork job which was needed to be carried out with all haste and Apex did this as promised at a very reasonable price considering the speed needed to fix it! I was extremely fortunate to find Apex and I would recommend the company without any hesitation whatsoever.
