Omniform
Builders in London
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 September 2018
“We could not have asked for better partners in Omniform in helping us transform our house. They are very much a 'can do' operation and nothing we asked of them was ever too much and requests/alterations were quickly and efficiently dealt with. The quality of their work was very high and their workman take pride on ensuring that we were happy with all aspects of their work. Post the project finishing they have remained a team we have heartily recommended to friends and family.”
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.”

Holcman Construction
Builders in London
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 May 2023
“I was thoroughly impressed with the professionalism and expertise of the Holcman team. Throughout the project they showed great attention to detail, ensuring every aspect of the rebuild was perfect. The project was completed on time and at a high standard.”
MoreSpace
Builders in London
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 January 2021
“We decided to choose MoreSpace to build our loft extension and were so glad we did. We were firstly consulted by Stuart Ellerby who gave us a thorough overview of what was involved in a loft extension and who is responsible for what during the project. His knowledge was first class and he spoke in layman’s terms and not jargon which we found very engaging and brought it to life. Once we agreed on the project, Stuart also kept in touch throughout with regular site visits and was also super responsive when we raised any questions. His aftercare has also been great. The team who built our loft was insane. The team was led by Jake and everyone in his team were super friendly and accommodating, whether it was popping up for a sneak peek on progress, asking any questions or looking to make slight adjustments. The finish of the job is perfect and exactly what we’d hoped for. They left the place clean and was complete within a much shorter time period than I expected. For such a large project, this felt like the easiest one I’ve had to undertake so far thanks to Stuart, Jake and his team. We did shop around with 4 other competitors and these by far have the best reputation and I’m glad I trusted the reviews. 5* Thanks Team!!!”
Bluebird Spaces
Builders in London
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 November 2022
“We had Bluebird Spaces build our extension and loft during lockdown. They were extremely professional and extremely respectful in challenging circumstances. The quality of workmanship was outstanding. Tom went above and beyond to source materials for us and ensure they finished on time and budget.”
R.A.S. Construction And Design Ltd
Builders in London
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 February 2019
“I have used Chris and his team at R.A.S Construction for several 'full service' projects (covering refurbishment, extending, plumbing, re-wiring etc) - each time the work and service has been exceptional. We received a detailed, competitive quote and the work was completed on-time to a very high standard. I would have no hesitation recommending them or using again. He provided references and gave the opportunity to view past projects (we were so impressed by the work and dedication that we were happy to have potential customers contact us and even view our finished projects).”

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.

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.
