Builders in Teignmouth, Devon

“With Carpenter Oak you're not just a client, you become part of the family! We turned up unexpectedly at the wrong time for our meeting and were taken under the wing of the carpenters themselves. Mugs of tea, bowls of water for our dogs, humour, a great smell of oak and demonstration of their skill and passion sold Carpenter Oak to us more than any sales presentation could ever do. And a year or more later nothings changed, great on site, flexible with their designs, care for their products passionately and always get back to you. Highly recommended.”

“Having never undertaken building work before, we entered the process with some trepidation. A colleague strongly recommended HighSpec and from the outset it was clear they were the most professional of the 3 quoting companies. There was a very personal touch in Andrew’s meetings . We weren’t rushed at all and he was happy to guide us through the various complexities. The quote was clear and not littered with “provisional sums” seen in other estimates. This gave us confidence in choosing them. Ultimately the work did not increase in cost throughout the full 6 month project, apart from some additions we chose to make along the way (including underfloor bathroom heating – highly recommended!) We had extensive work done – a full loft conversion with en suite, and 2 additional bathrooms, plus new plumbing and electrics throughout. At all times, the whole team from HighSpec were friendly and respectful. We had a very open working relationship, in which we invited them to give views on our ideas, based on their experience. It was genuinely enjoyable having them in the house. They were great with our kids, and a pleasure to chat to during breaks in ours and their working schedules. We never once saw them start late, or down tools early. Hassan, Dave and Alex are clearly excellent craftsmen. We appreciated their perfectionism and attention to detail.

“We are firm of architects who have now worked with Perrett & Family Builders on a number of successful projects. They are a delight to work with. Emma provides the 'front of house' organisation and client interface rarely seen in the construction industry, whist Marco diligently masterminds the construction with his careful eye for detail. Together they provide an excellent balance of service and product delivery. I am very happy to recommend them.”

“We worked with the guys at Complete Carpentry for one of our landscaping projects in Paignton. They were tasked with building an outdoor garden room for the client, of which they did a superp job. We ourselves work to very high standards, of which their own work complimented this perfectly, and we would be more than happy to work with them again on future projects. Oli - Legendary Landscapes”

“John Tolly undertook a complete renovation of our 1980's bungalow: managing all other trades. The incremental (staged) payments as work progressed was very reassuring as it made us confident the trades would return and complete the job, it also keeps the funds in our account longer!. John started the project in Feb 2014 and completed in early May. All of his chosen sub-contractors were well known to him and that installed further confidence in us. He did everything and more, very reliable and competent builder who also has the ability to manage a complete project. The whole image of the company is credible, vehicles are smart etc. Would absolutely recommend this company for projects large or small with no hesitation.”
