    Installation of bifold doors and removal of internal walls.

    Posted 19 May

    I highly recommend Chris, he recently completed a bifold door installation along with removal of internal walls at my property, and I am extremely happy with the results. The quality and accuracy of his workmanship is excellent. Chris was always punctual, reliable, tidy and communicated clearly and effectively with me, keeping me updated on the progress. Liaising with both the structural engineer and building control to ensure everything was completed correctly and to the best standard. I would have no hesitation in using him again or recommending his services for any future projects.

    Garage conversion

    Posted 02 March

    Chris was very professional in his approach to the work and arrived early on day one together with a delivery of his materials. Both he and his team were very diligent in their work and Chris ensured that all work was carried out to his standard. He left Craig to carry out the plastering which he completed with an excellent finish making final decoration easy. At the end of each day the team thoroughly cleaned the work area and stored tools in an orderly fashion. I have no problem in recommending Chris The Builder and his work team and would myself avail of his services again.
