"I engaged Phil from general building to build my rear extension plus garage conversion. Phil and his team started Mid jul and were pretty much done by end Sep. Came back to finish off in Dec after other trades were finished. 1. Phil and team were onsite, ontime every single day. No stoppages whatsoever exceptng for weather. 2. Worked very well with other trades i had engaged 3. Always focussed on getting it right first time around (extremely well planned work schedule incl scheduling just in time material delivery). Very happy to recommend his services. I am extermely ahppy with the outcome."

Review by Samantha
on 30th June 2023
"We highly recommend Phil and his whole team. From quote to completion - they were polite, friendly, approachable and the quality of work was carried out to an excellent standard. Communication was mainly through Phil’s wife Kelly over email who is lovely, helpful and kept us up to date on changes, timeframes and any unexpected extra costs throughout the build which was much appreciated. The build itself went fairly smoothly and we were pleased with how they communicated with our neighbours. We are very happy with our kitchen extension and recommend Phil and his team for any project without hesitation!"
