    Avoid. Lots of time wasting. Lots of excuses. Failed to produce public liability insurance.

    Posted 29 August

    Lots of talk and no action. Lots of excuses - injury delays, no phone signal, working away, broken laptop and more…. Asked for public liability insurance certificate 7 times, but did not produce. This site specifies that this builder ‘self certified’ that he has PLI !!? - Buyer Beware! Still no responses after a couple more weeks, hence this review. Appointed another builder.

    Job was booked for 3 months ago with no fixed date and other work got booked in. Customer felt he was priority over the existing work I had on.my public liability certificate is attached to my account for all to see as requested by checkatrade.

    Created a door entrance from living room to under stairs cupboard, additional masonry work

    Posted 25 March

    Excellent job, created quote quickly and booked in date immediately. Created under stairs door from dining room, securing supporting wall, maintained window seals and painted them, and repointing work at back of the house. Provided all materials including paint, masonry materials, door, architrave and door handle. The job was all completed within 2 days, all rubbish removed and job completed. Very happy with the work and asked for additional quotes for more external work for the summer.

    Making a through lounge.

    Posted 13 February

    I requested to have a through lounge and block off an internal door to the dining room. Work started Monday 10.02.25 for 4 days. Glen and Martin did an absolutely fantastic job creating my through lounge! From start to finish, they were professional, friendly, and highly skilled. As well as opening up the space, they made changes to the fireplace and seamlessly blocked off an internal door, transforming the layout beautifully. Their attention to detail was second to none, and they worked efficiently while keeping everything tidy. The end result exceeded my expectations. My space now feels open, modern, and beautifully finished. I couldn’t be happier with their workmanship and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-quality renovations. I will most definitely be booking them again for further works as the renovation continues. Thanks again, Glen and Martin!

    Internal home improvements

    Posted 23 January

    Very hard working, honest, knocking down internal wall, installing steel. Plastering (brilliant) installing velux windows, flooring. Installing kitchen island, electrical work. Did a great job but let down with some of the painting and a couple of rough finishes, paint on window frames, door frame and paint on carpet. Painting was rushed.
