Report
We chose Greenheart, not because they were the cheapest, but because we liked their approach, their way of working and how they employ their people. We were proved right in our assessment! The build process was complicated with a total refurbishment followed by a large extension which was interrupted by Covid. Greenheart managed our expectations pretty well over the period and we really got on well with the people who worked on our building. They put a huge amount of effort in to deliver the right level of quality in a managed timescale and we are really pleased with the finished product.

From first meeting Richard we felt we could work with Greenheart. The team were friendly and easy to get on with, consulting us at every stage. The house was pretty much completed according to the schedule first drawn up, with great efficiency in terms of project management. Probably most important however was the quality of the build - we are so pleased with our new home, with all its eco features.

Greenheart built a 3 storey, side extension for us 8 years ago and we are still as delighted with it now as we were when it was completed, within the time frame we'd asked for and within our ballpark budget. While some construction companies seem to quote unrealistically low, we found it very reassuring that we felt we knew where we are at each step of the process. The most striking thing about working with Greenheart is what a collaborative project it was - between us and them, and between all those involved in the construction, working with and for Greenheart. Even when there were difficult problems

Our Greenheart Experience
We knew nothing about building a new house, and it became clear that we had little idea as to the range and sheer quantity of decisions we would be required to make. And each of those decisions had implications for decisions already made and yet to come!
Fortunately we had an experienced team: an project manager well established as an interior designer, an architect experienced in imaginative and unusual projects, and Greenheart, an eco home-building group. I think it is impossible to say just how much the Greenheart team helped shape a traumatic building project into
