Featured Reviews for Builders in London

PEAKE Projects London Ltd
Builders in London
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 June 2017
“Working with James and his team over the years has turned our house in to home that's beautiful and suits or needs precisely. Communication is where James excels - from understanding and cleverly interpreting our brief, next navigating us through the build stage then ultimately delivering a high end finish. This was done near enough on time but miraculously on budget, remarkable.”

Aspen Design & Build
Builders in London
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 January 2021
“I used Aspen for our project, it was our second move from a flat to a house. We bought a house which required a complete refurbishment, in addition we decided to extend the property to the rear along with a loft conversion. The works took 8 months to complete as the entire house was gutted along with front and rear garden landscaping. Aspen were exceptional to work with from start to finish, very accommodating with some additional alterations which we decided to carry out during the build. We would highly recommend Aspen especially as no compromise was taken with our previous home.”

“We had a very good experience working with Marcin and his team. He is very knowledgeable, understands the client requirements and proposes options to choose from. He is also upfront in suggesting any option that has less probability of approval. They also follow up with the council on the application and ensure they stay in touch with the case officer, answering their concerns and adjusting quickly to get the application approved Thanks Marcin and team for the wonderful work you did in getting positive outcome on both our applications”

“Ralph visited to quote for refurbishment of our 4 bed house. He has gone through everything with us, outlined everything that will be needed from us. After a couple of days DPS issued a clear professional price list and timeline chart. Ralph informed us about everything that was to be carried out each week. His workers always turned up on time in the mornings and left the house clean. We thank Ralph and his team, they were all working fast, clean and very professional.

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in SE1:
  1. Local builders will be familiar with your local authorities building regulations, being able to advise on any relevant permits you need before work can begin.
  2. Builders near you will be aware of the climate of your area, and can recommend materials and construction methods suitable for your area.
  3. Building firms nearby will provide quicker responses and quotes compared to contractors outside of your local area, as they are nearby, they will often drop in to talk to you about your project and view the property.

For home builders, you will usually receive a quote for a building project instead of daily rates or hourly fees. The cost depends on various factors such as the type of job, builders experience and length of the project.

Expect to pay less for a small maintenance job such as brickwork repair or an extension of an existing wall than a new build project such as a kitchen or bathroom renovation and home extensions. 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.
You can find a local builder in SE1 with Houzz in two ways:

  1. Answer a few questions about your project to get matched with a local professional for free. Enter your postcode above to get started.

After choosing either option, you can reach out to the builders you want to discuss your project with. You can request and compare quotes before hiring the right builder for you.
When looking for a SE1 building company to take on your project, you will want to know that they will be able to handle the job in good time and sticking to your agreed budget. A professional contractor will have worked on projects like yours previously and they will know exactly what to do.

Compile a shortlist of at least three builders in SE1 that can handle the full scope of works, either by themselves or through sub-contracting. It is often a good idea to play devils advocate and ask what the builder will not be responsible for. Be wary of unusually cheap quotes. Ask for references and stories about how the builder has met different challenges along the way. If you can, you could try to see previous projects and talk to previous clients, or if not, read reviews, recommendations and ratings, and look at detailed photos of projects. All of which you can find on Houzz.
