A&T Building Renovation
Builders in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars30 August 2022
“They did our bathrooms, kitchen and rooms and we couldn’t be happier with the work. We got a fair price for all the work and they finished everything on time. We recommended them to 2 friends who want to have some work done at their houses. Thank you guys again!”
Pencil and Brick
Builders in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 June 2017
“To set the scene : we are mid-way through construction, to renovate & extend of our Victorian terrace in East London. We've had Seán and Stephen Ltd as our architects for 18 months so far. My wife and I are complete novices to design & construction, and Seán and Stephen have expertly and supportively guided us through each stage, enabling us to really enjoy every part of creating our new home. I would happily recommend this professional practice to family and friends. They were great at helping to bring some of our own design preferences to life using plans, 3D models, and interactive virtual room design tools. But they also have challenged our thinking too, leading us to add in a number of amazing and creative features that we would never otherwise have considered. Seán and Stephen created an extremely thorough and professional Design & Access Statement to help explain our project to the local planners. As a direct result of the quality of S&S’s planning pack our application (which proposed various potentially contentious items such as a basement, lightwell, and dormer) was approved without a single significant amendment. Since the contractor began the works Seán and Stephen have project managed every aspect of the construction programme, providing us with detailed weekly updates and explaining everything to us in layman’s terms. They consistently fight our corner with the contractor on a number of technical and cost-related issues which gives us real confidence that the project is in safe hands. So far we have enjoyed a stress-free project thanks to their project management skills”
Mars Building Group LTD
Builders in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 March 2025
“We selected Mars as our contractor following a tender process for our new build. When I met Ricky for the first time I really liked hearing about his approach to a project, in particular his attention to detail and desire to deliver a well executed build. He has excellent knowledge and experience of building energy efficient houses. Ricky and his team were brilliant at every stage of the build. Communication was good and timely; care was taken for the site to be tidy and well organised and the quality of the finish is outstanding. The team worked hard over the 16 month project and there was never a time where the site was empty with nothing happening. Mars collaborated well with us and our architects and delivered us our dream house. We had a fixed budget for our build and our project was delivered to contract with no hidden surprises. I would recommend Mars without hesitation.”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in Welwyn Garden City:
  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.
