    Downstairs toilet fitted for my dad.

    Posted 1 week ago

    Steve was very quick and reasonable with his quote. He was very honest on how it would be fitted. We are very happy with the finish. In fact it looks better than we imagined. Steve and wiz worked to finish it within the time quoted. Even though they found a few problems. They always cleaned up after every working day. Would differently recommend them, and will keep their detailed la just incase we have any further jobs.

    Dining Room Refurbishment

    Posted 12 January

    I contacted RJR Building Contractors as I needed a refurbishment of my dining room. This included a new ceiling, french doors and the creation of an under stairs cupboard. Steve was amazing from the initial quotation to completion of the work and I couldn't be happier with the result. The whole process was painless which is no doubt due to the organisational and craftsmanship skills of Steve and his whole team. They were all friendly, punctual and tidy and nothing was ever too much trouble. I would use Steve again in a heartbeat and am already planning my new kitchen.

    Electrical testing and new cooker circuit .

    Posted 10 January

    I previous used RJR Builders in the past for the construction of an extension at my property in 2024. So I did not hesitate in asking them to carry out further work. During electrical testing it was discovered that the cable for the cooker circuit was too small for the oven, so a new cable was needing to be installed. Work was carried out on the day promised to install the new cable and to make good of a kitchen wall that needed to be chased out to run the new cable in with all aspects of the work being carried out to very high standard and finish.

    New bathroom and kitchen

    Posted 03 January

    Steve and the team have gone above and beyond to make sure our new bathroom and kitchen is exactly as we had hoped. There were quite a few setbacks and unexpected issues due to it being an old house but Steve was able to come up with solutions quickly, keeping us informed the whole way through and not overcharging us. The team were extremely professional and mindful when working. Steve kept the project moving at a really good pace and made sure none of the stress was passed onto us. The before and after honestly speaks for itself. The team did an amazing job and we would use them again.

    Garage conversion into games room

    Posted 25 November 2025

    From the initial quotation appointment to completion of the job, Steve and his team were friendly, reliable and produced an amazing room that my family and I will enjoy for a long time. It was great to hear ideas of how to use the space that I hadn’t thought of and Steve was always happy to help answer questions or talk through options as they came up. The finish is amazing and he even surprised us by building the pool table we’d had delivered as a little present to my kids! A* service and would highly recommend! Thanks so much.
