Thanks to Jeff for creating a great family space that really does have the wow factor. When looking for a builder for our extension, Jeff was very quick to come back with a quote (and came to have a look unlike some others) which was competitive in terms of price and scope. He could start the actual work in a timeframe that suited us also which was a bonus. Work started when Jeff said it would and we were kept in the loop on the comings and goings to site throughout the build. Jeff took a lot of the stress and worry away from us by organising the different trades, building control inspections

Moving into Urmston and not knowing any local trades, I required a builder who could project manage my complete house renovation whilst being friendly, approachable and reliable. Like many people I looked online and after reading various reviews of local companies and not really being any the wiser, decided I had to take the plunge and settled on Jeff. After the first call round/chat, I was at ease and felt happy that we shared the same end goal. Just turning up at the time stated is top marks in my book and an attribute lacking in many of today's tradesmen.

Side extension, new front wall and new driveway all for the price of what one company wanted for just the extension. Really decent team, will use them again. Thanks Jeff!!
