9.25 Demolition of old outbuilding, replacement with new extension
Posted 04 December 2024
This is an interim report since the project - held up by planning delays in the spring and summer - is not yet complete. Because of the late start, Clive's men have had to contend with often atrocious conditions i.e. bitter cold and frequent rain. The important thing is that the roof is on, the doors and windows are in, and the extension is weather-proof. Internal fitting-out can now proceed at a more leisurely pace. I know Clive and his sub-contractors will deal with any teething problems that arise. I take my hat off to Tom and Curt, who have done the bulk of this very heavy physical work.Verified reviewerJob location: RG410 Single storey rear extension.

Couldn’t fault the lads to be fair. On site before 8am every day, didn`t start any machinery until after 9am to keep the neighbours happy. Kept the site clean and tidy at all times, left the site and house secure each day. Workmanship was superb and Clive has a very keen eye for detail. Curtis the brickie was exceptional and very quick which helped a lot as we were plagued by the weather mid build and really had to go for it when the weather windows opened up. I can’t recommend the team enough and they’ll be my only call for a future upcoming project. Thanks again for all the hard work.Verified reviewerJob location: RG29.25 Extension and terrace

We engaged BEC to build & project manage a single storey extension, including supervising the internal decoration and electrical & plumbing requirements. Project was later developed to include a patio development. Working effectively with our architect & structural engineer, a planning & building regulations issue was successfully resolved with little fuss. Clive led his team effectively, was calm & pro-active in addressing all issues that arose & flexible in approach to changes to original spec as the project developed. Workmanship was commendable & we are very satisfied with the end result.Verified reviewerJob location: RG410 Landscaping

We have just used Clive and his team for the 7th project on our home. As always we are super impressed with the work and his team who are always the same tradesmen which is great for consistency,as ever they were polite, courteous and tidy. We will definitely use BEC building services moving forward and can highly recommend them if you want a decent job well done. Thanks again Clive!Verified reviewerJob location: RG410 Upstairs Bathroom of our dreams

Clive and his team took on some last minute work to rip out our existing bathroom, completely redo the shape of the room and plumbing, and install a high end upgrade. The team were amazing to work with - Clive is very open and communicative, up front about the expected costs and proactive about keeping them down. Clive also managed all the adjacent trades we needed to complete it. The end result is really great, quality finish. At the same time, his team identified a number of issues with our roof and floor timbers and addressed them, leaving us with a longer lasting house as a result.Verified reviewerJob location: RG109.5 Large renovation
