    Fitting a custom door frame and gate built for my garden storage area

    Posted 22 November 2024

    I recently had a custom door frame and gate built for my garden storage area by Jonah from Varela Properties, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. The craftsmanship is top-notch, and the gate blends perfectly with my garden. Communication throughout the process was excellent, with Jonah offering great advice and ensuring everything was exactly as I wanted. The job was completed on time, with no mess left behind. I’m very happy with the outcome and would definitely recommend Varela Properties for any work. Professional, reliable, and highly skilled!

    3 bedroom house refurbishment

    Posted 18 July 2024

    Almost never on site, he kept on with failed promises of getting things done in a timely fashion. I called him out severally to express my dissatisfaction but there was no improvement, only excuses. He finally abandoned my job and refused to take my calls or respond to my messages leaving me high and dry. He kept telling that his team was ill, how can an 8 man team be ill for over 2 weeks? I have had to look for other builders to complete the job, they have all complained greatly about how poor his work is. He his definitely a gardener not a builder. DISSAPOINTING

    Response from Varela Properties Ltd

    We noticed asbestos warning signs and asked the client if asbestos was present. They assured us it wasn’t with a surveyors sign off. We got in a private asbestos specialist who took samples which were all positive. We prioritise our workforces safety.
