Create your dream home

“A friendly and professional building company, who were very reliable and efficient in carrying out our two storey side extension and new downstairs cloakroom. We were kept informed of any issues that arose and the works were carried out for a fair and reasonable price. Overall a trustworthy building firm who performs to a high level of service. Finally we would like to thank Richard and Shaun and all of your team who carried out the works on our property, for all your diligent hard work and professionalism in providing us with our side extension and we wish you and your company continued success in the future. Thank you Abbey.”

Mr and Mrs Hince

“We have been very happy with the building work and have been particularly impressed by the efficiency of the whole project. All the required materials appeared on our drive just at the right moment. We also appreciate Sean’s hardwork, in particular the Saturday mornings spent doing jobs to make sure everyone else could get on on Monday. Your two brickies worked really hard. I notice these things as I am around all day. It made me tired just watching!

“I have had several friends asking if your company is any good. A couple are in the early stages of talking to architects so you may be sure that there will be a steady stream of interested friends coming to inspect your work!”

Mrs Gardens

“First class work and excellent after care. Richard’s team built an extension for us 5 years ago and the work is still as great now as it was on the day they left (apart from the wear and tear of two teenage boys!). Although having builders in your house for several months is difficult, Richard’s team made it as painless as possible, they were always charming, tidy and polite. With two youngish children in the house, that was really important to us.

The work was of a very high standard, changes we made along the way were always accepted if possible and we have recommended Richard to at least 4 of our friends, all of whom have used him subsequently.

If you want your building work doing well, with a team you feel comfortable with, you should definitely get Abbey Building to quote for you.”
