Design and Build Companies in Harleston, Norfolk

“River House were our main contractor for a technically complex, architect-designed new home, and we could not be happier with our decision to appoint them. Their technical expertise, quality of craftsmanship, and attention to detail were outstanding throughout this large and challenging project. Any issues that arose were handled seamlessly by their team. Their open and clear communication kept us fully informed and involved at every stage. Thanks to their meticulous project management, the build was delivered on time and within the estimated budget, making the entire process remarkably stress-free. In terms of build quality, River House exceeded our expectations. The house achieved the highest levels of air-tightness and thermal performance to meet the Passive House standard – no small achievement. Two years on, the exceptional quality and finish continue to stand up beautifully to the demands of busy family life. The bespoke joinery, decoration, and specialist finishes remain as impressive today as they were the day we moved in. The team were without exception polite, considerate, and extremely hardworking – a reflection of their values. We also felt that the project offered excellent value for money, with Jim and the team consistently seeking smart, cost-effective solutions to protect our budget without compromising quality. Their commitment to negotiating advantageous terms with suppliers was a real differentiator and something we had not experienced elsewhere. We would wholeheartedly recommend River House Building Company to anyone planning a significant, high-end building project. Their combination of expertise, integrity and craftsmanship delivered us not only a home of exceptional quality but also a thoroughly positive building experience.”

“Tony was both creative and pragmatic on our massive rennon project on this 1978 link detached house that had been neglected and unloved since the previous owner was taken ill, some time back. His use of space and introduction of light and curves into areas of the house have been elemental in creating more space for us and we are delighted with the thoughtful choice of materials. Always will to help and be pro-active in a "soft-way" and working well with the building team made the project and enjoyable and rewarding experience.”

He did a lot of research to produce solutions sympathetic to our home, sourced both reclaimed and period materials. He produced informative CAD drawings of proposed work.
