Calidwell Homes
Builders in Great Chesterford, Essex
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 October 2018
“We had Ross Taylor homes come into our home and re design our kitchen so we could use the space we had to it’s full potential. Steve made sure he took into account the main things we wanted from our new kitchen and incorporated them all into the new design. Steve and his guys worked to a very high standard . Our new kitchen looks perfect ! They are certainly perfectionists when it comes to finishing kitchens. We were extremely satisfied with the whole process , from start to finish And would not hesitate in recommending Steve & Rob to our family and friends.”

Vibe Construction Ltd
Builders in Great Chesterford, Essex
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 October 2022
“We are extremely pleased with all the works carried out by Jim and his team at our property! Vibe has done an excellent job for us on multiple occasions, including a garage conversion (which has now turned into a downstairs bathroom, a utility room, and a play room), roof repairs, installing a brand new kitchen and a new bathroom, and a full house refurbishment. Jim and his team are very professional, easy to communicate with, and finish everything to a high quality, while sticking to the original budget and timelines, which we really appreciated. We also appreciated talking to Jim about various aspects of the house refurbishment and how to achieve the designs we had in mind. For instance, we wanted some custom made book shelves around the fireplace to house our many books, and Jim was able to create it for us. Likewise, he created a beautiful play room for our daughter and an extremely functional utility room for us. Overall, Jim and his team have gone beyond our expectations in delivering a very high quality project and managing the entire process professionally. We would recommend them highly to anyone looking to carry out building projects regardless of size.”

“Very pleased with Dan & the Ratcliff & Burridge Team. We underwent a complete garden renovation with construction of an open garden room. The team were organised and attentive even to minor details. Stayed professional throughout even when small changes were made mid project, and gave trusted advice when issues arose. Communication remained constant throughout the project and all works were completed on time.”
Imogen Jack
Builders in Great Chesterford, Essex
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 September 2015
“Matt and his team at Imogen Jack did a fabulous job converting an outdated and unnecessary en suite to my daughters room into a stunning extra bathroom. From the beginning of the process to the end...advice, vision, plans and execution, Matt was fabulous and he's surrounded by a great team. We now have a lovely extra shower/wet room for the whole family to use and it has a really great finish. Thanks Imogen Jack - the Burgess family are very happy customers!”
PS Brick, Block & Home Improvement LTD
Builders in Great Chesterford, Essex
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 June 2021
“We appointed Pawel and his team to undertake a renovation to the basement of our Victorian house and also to erect a bespoke timber pergola, install decking and construct a concrete bench in our garden. We have employed many contractors over the course of our house renovation and we can honestly say that Pawel and his team are the best. As well as providing a very competitive quote, Pawel was able to provide really sound advice around the scope of the works and came up with innovative solutions to tricky issues we discovered on site. His team were very respectful of our house and our neighbours and we were really impressed with their communication and trustworthiness regarding the renovation. We had a minor issue with a faulty smoke alarm once works were completed and Pawel arranged for someone to come over and fix this immediately at no additional cost. We are thrilled with the end result and the attention to detail is fantastic. We would 100% recommend Pawel and his team to anyone and would definitely employ them again.”
LBH Building & Property Services
Builders in Great Chesterford, Essex
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 May 2021
“Having had a nightmarish with experience with an unreliable builder on a previous project we were apprehensive of going through all that again with an extension. But we needn’t have worried Lewis Hammond was brilliant. We are very happy with the end result and during the project communication was excellent. The team were lovely, so helpful. Despite us living out of the one room downstairs whilst the house was a building site we actually enjoyed the building work project. That says a lot! There will always be unexpected delays, snags, plan changes etc during a build but Lewis is a good guy; honest, friendly and flexible so together we responded to each issue in a positive way.”
Applewood Design and Build Ltd
Builders in Great Chesterford, Essex
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 August 2019
“We chose Applewood thanks to recommendations from a number of local friends. Our two-storey extension was completed on time and on budget thanks to Martyn's fantastic organisational skills and the care taken by his team. They were a pleasure to work with, in fact we rather enjoyed the whole process and missed them after they left! And we couldn't be more delighted with the final result - should have done it years ago.”

After you’ve found a local builder for your project, speaking with them in detail about your project will help them give you an accurate estimate for the work required.
If you hire a home builder for a lengthy project, such as an extension, your builder may charge a daily rate. You can expect to pay around £350 per day for this. If your builder charges this way, ask for an estimation of how long this will take so you know roughly how much the total cost will be.
