    Replacement of two lintels

    Posted 22 April

    Keith and co replaced the first lintel in autumn 2022 a tricky job done very well with attention to detail . Subsequently and because of this they were asked to replace a second lintel the following year . Keith’.s knowledge and experience was evident throughout. The jobs were neat , completed fully and , clearing up good . I would use this company again .

    Built inner hallway in back to back to back

    Posted 12 October 2024

    Keith is a real detail person and made sure that all the work was to a high standard and in-keeping with the style of the house. He added additional touches such as shelving and coat hooks to make it a real functional space.

    Downstairs toilet dream made reality thanks to Keith and James

    Posted 11 September 2024

    A small but substantial job and not always straightforward; Keith and James stepped up to the plate and always had solutions to any potential problems. From the initial quote we knew we had found the right builders for the job; comprehensive and informative, providing details/caveats should any issues arise. They managed to convert a larder into a toilet, blocking up doorways, creating new ones, adding plumbing and waste, choosing a nifty 2-in-1 toilet with sink on top due to space constraints, and even went above and beyond with some extra jobs in and around the area. Highly recommend!

    Raising and Replacing Extension Roof

    Posted 26 July 2024

    Absolutely superb from start to finish. Keith used his knowledge and experience to improve upon my vague ideas of what I wanted doing, outlined exactly what would be done, and kept me informed of the progress throughout. Any issues that came up were dealt with and they stuck to the original quote despite some extra work needing to be done. Couldn't complain about the end result if I tried, and they cleared up everything before finishing. If I ever need more work doing or anyone I know does they'd be the first I'd go to.

Hi, we are Yorkshire Builders Ltd and thank you for looking at our profile.


You can contact us at any time via our email, sales@yorkshirebuildersltd.com or call us on pour landline 0113 41 80 007.


To help save you time and ensure you contact the right company to do your proposed works, we assist by making clear what are certain points to assist you in choosing the right builder for your works. All photos in this profile are of works we have done.


Some people contact us wanting small jobs done, we unfortunately are not financially set up for small works. We say such to help you, because you may contact us wanting us to do a small emergency job or another small job as we may not be the company for you. Basically, we only take on works that are at least 1 full day for 2 men and charge accordingly, to help you understand such.


Our staff have experience in the building trade that now spans over 55 years, we are a family run business. Our vans usually run with a 2-to-3-man teams to carry out such buildings works. We may ask for photos of your house front to help us understand the age of your property.


We undertake all major buildings works from a structural internal wall removal, chimney removal, garage conversions to living accommodation alterations, dormer installations, we work on both domestic and commercial properties also. With our staff’s skill set we take the project from start to finish which can include the final stages of carpets or other floor covering if required on building works that we have been engaged upon. We however do not carry out decorating works.


After a site visit, we always issue detailed written quotations listing all works to be undertaken, this details exactly what works are to be undertaken and the cost of such works, we never increase our cost beyond what is in our quote unless more work are requested and carried out under such variations to the schedule of the works quoted and signed for.


Our plasterers work to our specific high standard being able to apply all types of plaster coverings as well as plasterboard and skimming. This includes lime plaster, rendering and K rendering etc.


We even supply and install thermal boards that are bonded to plaster boards to help improve dramatically the thermal value of any home by applying such to external walls, as well as doing floor and loft insulation.


We work closely with the appropriate local authority of your area with any project that requires the issue of a Building Control Certificate from the appropriate Building Control authority. This is paramount if you have any structural works carried out on your home, its paramount because it is highly likely that when you come to sell your house the buyer’s solicitor will need to see such documentation to satisfy most lenders requirements and their clients to ensure the property has had approved works carried out on such property.


Experience tells us that once a project starts variations can be encountered, these will always be discussed in detail and any price for any extra works will always be confirmed in writing as soon as possible, so there are no surprises on extra costings if there are any further extra works, we are asked to become engaged upon.


We do not take shortcuts on the materials we use, any RSJs (rolled steel joist) or lintels meet the Building Code of such local Building Authority with, if required, structural calculations can be obtained for you and submitted to Building Control and if it’s an RSJ, then it will be painted to the required Building code requirements. These costs are squally less than the engineer you may engage.


The same applies to the timbers we use for the flooring, we always try and match the existing floorboards where possible in pine if patching in a floor, when we install new flooring, we use Tantalized 22mm flooring boards as opposed to 18mm, because it gives a much sturdier floor with less spring if such can be allowed by the floor conditions.


Our jobs include the following, but the list is by no means exhaustive, if it is involving building works, then most likely will do projects such as:


• Internal wall removal

• Structural alterations

• Chimney removal

• Garage conversions to living accommodation

• All types of plastering

• Garden rooms/offices

• Cellar tanking

• Inserting of Lintels above windows where the bricks above have cracked/moved.

• Kitchen supplied from Howdens or other companies at reduced cost.

• Complete bathroom refits

• Plastering

. Office building/alterations.
