Alex and the team were great. Very flexibl, good advice and very helpful

At very short notice we were let down by a tradesman who had been booked for several weeks. Our job was time critical as the underfloor heating needed sealing & levelling before the kitchen could be fitted. Having found The Reliable Builders via Which? Trusted Traders, Alex was able to rescue our situation. He did an amazing job, at a reasonable price (which was per the quote), communication throughout was fabulous. We will definitely use them again in future & recommend.

I love these builders. 5 years ago, after getting stung by a rogue builder they turned our sad/broken shell of a house into a livable space in 2 weeks. We naturally had them back for our patio build. In a world of unreliable, unresponsive and inconsiderate builders, these guys are an anomaly. He is straight talking, very honest and suggests practical and cost- effective solutions. They turn up when they say they will turn up, on time and are courteous and tidy. Highly recommended and we will use them again this year for some rendering work.

Alex & his team worked at our home over a 6-month period from late 2023 to mid-2024. The job involved a rear & side ground floor extension to our Victorian home along with a comprehensive ground floor renovation to create a large open plan kitchen-lounge-dining space, downstairs toilet and hallway. Right from the initial quote I felt Alex’s approach & communication were honest, reasonable and detailed. Costs & payment dates were clearly structured, extras (of which I requested several) were fairly addressed. I found the work to be of a high quality and am certainly happy to recommend them.

Excellent service from Alex and team. Estimated start date spot-on. The rendering was problematic, needing the removal of existing rendering and reconstructing degraded brickwork. Alex liaised frequently and ensured we could see what were the problems and what would happen daily. The team themselves worked assiduously and for long hours, sometimes in semi-darkness, to ensure they finished before Xmas. Facade now looks great. Little snags with one window: Alex asked us to withhold part payment until they were (quickly) resolved. That’s very good customer service. Price was good VFM.

Great from start to finish. It was a relatively small job I’d imagine but he was in constant communication about what was needed and gave us good advice on how to solve ventilation issues. He broke down his quote so we could pick which bits we wanted to do. Then was flexible with us when we found issues along the way. Work completed to a high standard. Also would stay to get things finished in a day rather than leave at 3pm, as other builders we used did. Meant it finished bang on time. Would not use anyone else now. Excellent throughout.
