Craig got in touch quickly, gave me a rough estimate over the phone and answered all my questions. Surveyor arrived on time, gave instant quote. Price was good. Michael and (another) Craig turned up to do the job on the day, time given. Good, tidy job. Can't fault anything, from start to finish!! Would recommend!

George and his team are experienced builders, replaced my front door with a custom frame/sidelights and raising the floor level in the hallway quite quickly - in fact, they were the only who came next day, gave a quote straightaway and were ready to start in just couple of days. They also had all the necessary tools and materials, were ready to buy something additional quickly on the day - if further adjustments were required to fit everything as I asked. Thanks a lot for your help, guys!

Dmitry

Highly recommend. These guys did a fantastic job of constructing our pergola and decking. Very hardworking and reliable. The job was completed in the time frame agreed and to a very high standard. We would 100% use them again.

One thing about Kieran and his team is that they care about what they do a hell of a lot. From start to finish they were friendly and talked me through step by step the works they were going to complete and how they were going to do it. Very happy with the results.

Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile! My name is Arek, and I’m a general builder with over 12 years of experience in the industry. I love working with wood, but over the years, I’ve gained a lot of experience in tasks like building stud walls, plastering, rendering, painting, decorating, fitting skirting boards and architraves, tiling, laying laminate floors, and outdoor work such as footpaths and bricklaying. I take pride in doing a good job and always aim to deliver results that my clients are happy with. Whether it’s a small repair or a bigger project, I work hard to get the job done properly and on time. If you’re looking for someone reliable who pays attention to detail, feel free to get in touch.

We used Kingz for clearance of a very overgrown garden and new fencing. They did exactly what they said they would do in their quote. They worked hard, left the garden tidy, and took away all the waste. They were very pleasant and Emma, in particular, gave good advice regarding ongoing after care of the garden. We were very happy with the results and would definitely recommend this family team!
