9.33 Well managed job
Posted 25 April
Job involved demolition of garage and base, reinstate reinforced concrete hard standing to line up with existing patio, instal new fencing and gates and replace sections of existing fencing. Builders assigned did a very good job, managing the uncertainties inherent in work of this nature and consulting where and when necessary. Time keeping was good and the site kept tidy. Materials were delivered as necessary and waste material removed as required.Verified reviewerJob location: BR610 Quality Work Again

Having had a major external insulation and general refurbishment done on my house last year, I am happy to recommend Horton Builders without reservation. This year I needed a much smaller internal job done and, this time, carpenter Paul completed an awkward boarding in of an under-stair cupboard, exactly as requested and with attention to detail. Horton Builders get the job done.Verified reviewerJob location: BR210 Tennis clubhouse refurbishment
Posted 14 March
Job location: BR6Being the biggest building project any of us had been involved in we were totally reliant on Hortons to guide and advise us in what was possible as well as what was the best solution for our requirements, within budget too. This Hortons did, keeping all the tennis club committee onside, as well as coming up with creative ideas of their own to enhance the finished product. We were impressed with the speed of work and on schedule delivery, as well as accommodating our 'cosmetic' change requests.10 Excellent building work

9 Hallway refit.
Posted 26 August 2025
We needed our hallway/landing re-plastered and decorated as well as our old looking stairwell banister spokes replacing (as well as a number of other smaller jobs). Stuart and the team from Horton's were able to take on all the jobs with various team members working on different parts of the project over different days. We are very happy with the result and would recommend using Horton’s to anyone who needs work done on their homes.Verified reviewerJob location: BR6 9 Insulated Silicone Render and other works
Posted 04 July 2025
Horton Builders recently completed insulated silicone render on our home and we’re very pleased with the results. The entire team, led by Colin are professional, competent, friendly and took great pride in their work. Communication was smooth and straightforward, managed by Ann. Stuart, who handled the initial quote and acted as our main point of contact, was great—clear, responsive, and helpful every step of the way. We also had roof repairs and other minor works done through them. We'd highly recommend them and wouldn't hesitate to contact them for future works.Verified reviewerJob location: BR6
