    Work carried out by SMC Builders

    Posted 14 November 2025

    I have used SMC before and was so impressed, I asked them back to complete work at my new house. They block paved and resurfaced my front driveway with decorative stone and silicone rendered all brick walls. Workers were efficient, on time and kept the area clean and tidy, also done at a very competitive price. Would highly recommend.

    Single Story Extension

    Posted 07 September 2025

    Sean also our favourite builder out of everyone who quoted, and it just so happened he also came in cheapest. Sean’s team were incredible, always ready to start work dead on 8am, working full days and tidying up every single day leaving a spotless site. Nothing was an issue, even last minute additions of velux windows, and a slight relocation. The attention to detail was brilliant, and by far the best finish we’ve ever had from any builders. They also said the e project would take around 4 weeks and they were dead on the 4 weeks. Really impressed and would highly recommended
