MoreSpace

At the recommendation of two of my neighbours I chose MoreSpace to oversee the redevelopment of a ground floor flat in Putney (side return and 3 metre extension). Good move! They were highly efficient and provided all the personnel needed - architects, designers, engineers and - most important - a building company run by a young Albanian called Gjoke. All his men worked non-stop, sometimes well past 5.30 pm, and at the beginning I thought everything might be completed before the 10 weeks predicted; this was not the case. Work started at the end of August and the final document handover was in March. The delays were caused by coordinating the various supplies and trades involved, the Christmas break, and a measurement mistake made by the kitchen company. Stuart Ellerby (project manager) came by each week to check on how things were going and was most helpful with his advice and answers. Gjoke would turn up unexpectedly, keen to know if we were happy with the work and to collect payments which were staged throughout the project. Stuart set up a WhatsApp group so communication was easy. The work was done to a high standard and we are delighted with the finished product. Do not expect to be able to absent yourself while the work is being carried out - MoreSpace does all the paperwork but a works manager is not onsite all day and one needs to be on hand to make many decisions, buy in materials needed by the plumber, electrician, carpenter etc., and keep an eagle eye out to ensure that everything is how you want it. Note that the initial estimate given is exclusive of many extra items which are decided on and paid for during the project. I would highly recommend MoreSpace to anyone who is about to undertake an extension to their property.

A big shoutout to project manager Andy Vernon, Mihai, Pedro and their team for our amazing house extension! From the very start to the very end we have been pleased with the exceptional help and advice we have received. We did a front and rear extension as well as updates in the rest of the house and the journey couldn’t have been smoother. The team was always available to answer our numerous question, making us feel we were in safe hands at all times. Would 100% recommend MoreSpace!

We were very happy with MoreSpace and the extensions they built for us! The planning went well, there were only few surprises during the build, which were handled quickly and professionally with great can-do attitude! Edi as main builder and Andy as PM worked super well. Edi is very easy to get on and work with. He and his team work very hard, and he is still always optimistic and goes the extra mile! Andy kept a close watch on everything and pushed things along when needed. Both were always available, with clear communication, and the result is fantastic!!!

Cant recommend the MoreSpace team highly enough - Andy the project lead, was friendly, efficient, timely and honest about all the costs upfront. And we were luck enough to have an amazing building crew led by Ardit. Neighbours were jealous of the speed with which the team worked. And speed meant no compromise on quality. Pleasure to do business with. Alice Allan, London

MoreSpace totally remodelled my house in W6 some 4 years ago, adding a back extension, a second floor study and a loft room, as well as refurbishing the rest of the house. Their work was excellent, and I was and still am delighted with the house. I happened to bump into Stuart, and mentioned I was troubled by a small leak in a part of the roof outside of their contract. He immediately organised a repair, and not only that, he repaired a couple of holes in the roof of my elderly neighbour without being asked to do so, and at his cost. He really went above and beyond and I can wholeheartedly recommend him and his company. Thank you MoreSpace.

We had a loft conversion. It was completed within 9 weeks. The workmen were very approachable, hard working and knowledgeable. Adjustments I asked for were done expertly. I am very happy with the finished product.

MoreSpace were good, but not great. Pros: - Project was finished on time and schedule - The builders were mainly friendly and nice to have around - Andy, our PM, was easy to chat to and sent messages when we needed to make things happen Cons: - We went with design and build to take the stress off, but realistically our PM only visited once a week for half an hour, so we ended up basically project managing the third party building contractor ourselves - The architect's plans were pretty basic and meant we ran into problems later on as the builders constantly argued that the work we wanted wasn't in the plan and thus wanted extra money - The job was initially misquoted which meant we had to pay more for the roof and there were other hidden costs we weren't aware would crop up (roof insulation, etc). This is part and parcel of the process but also these were sprung on us with little warning - The builders could be difficult to communicate with and we had a few unpleasant altercations - The main thing is that we didn't feel the finish was particularly high quality. There are various bits of plastering / skirting / cement / carpentry etc that are quite rough and don't have a very premium finish - Their recommended glass supplier (1st Folding) were pretty useless

Great company who did a good job on a demolition and kitchen extension. Kept to budget and quote factored in possible extras. Very very reliable builders etc! Nice finish on the job and kept to schedule. Happy to reccommend.

MoreSpace did a great job on our kitchen extension and were a pleasure to have around. Our project manager was Andy and our lead builder was Edi.

Definitely would recommend MoreSpace if you are planning to do an extension. The team we had on our project was great (Andy as project manager and Sadri as lead builder). We are so thrilled with the final result and have had other tradespeople such as our kitchen fitter comment about how straight the walls are and high quality finish of work. They set up a Temporary kitchen for us and plumbed in our sink and dishwasher which made living on site so much easier. They kept the place tidy and secure and were mindful of our young children and safety. The team were also pretty speedy and worked at the weekend and even on snow days! They offer a 10 year guarantee which is really helpful and offers peace of mind.

I used MoreSpace for my wrap around extension in 2022, Stuart Ellerby and Ruben were professional from start to finish and were there to assist with any questions, recommendations and challenges i had. They made the whole process stress free and it was very obvious they had years of experience they were drawing on. Each stage of the process was well explained and I was given plenty of notice for decision making. Any reservations, apprehensions or worries that i had before embarking on the project were unfounded and I would highly recommend them. These guys know what they are doing!

We were very happy indeed with MoreSpace. They did a quality attic conversion job for us speedily, safely and in all respects with expert workmanship. In particular Stuart Ellerby, Gaby Sighiartau and Gaby’s assistant Stefan were all excellent, and nothing was too much for them. The specialist workers such as the plumbers, electricians, decorators and renderers were all very good and contributed to a great overall job. We highly recommend them.

Morespace were excellent. Andy, Arben and his team were great to work with; skilled, reliable, helped shape ideas with us, considerate to neighbours and the quality of build was exceptional. Our neighbours were jealous….lots of renovations going on around us and we were the only people delighted with our builder and the end result. (Second floor renovation and new 3rd floor loft extension to create 5 bed 4 bathrooms including entire rewire, relocated boiler and new plumbing)

More space have a great team of people, Ben managed the project and made it all easy for us, Gaby the builder was excellent, he achieved the deadlines faster then anticipated and yet at a very high standard and quality. I would certainly recommend more space!

Fantastic experience from start to finish. Ben Styles was our project manager and offered continuous support through each stage of our kitchen extension. Our builder was Ruben, and I cannot recommend him and his team highly enough.

Morespace completed our kitchen side return extension in 2021. We are absolutely thrilled with the finished build - it has completed changed our way of life as a family. Would 100% recommend!

We went into our Kitchen extension with no past experience and wanted to make the whole process as easy and stress free as possible. We chose MoreSpace over other quotes as we had a great rapour with Ben Styles (Project Manager) and felt confident with him from the start. All the paper work was done for us which made the whole process so much easier and the MoreSpace team ran the project from start to finish with precision, respect and professionalism. We had a couple of unforeseen issues that came up and Morespace quickly rectified them with an even better solution. Ben had great commitment and communication and was always contactable and would sort any problems immediately. We are really chuffed with our extension and have had so many compliments. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ben and MoreSpace. Thank you.

I have completed numerous projects now with More Space, and I have always found them to always be polite, helpful and efficient. Claudia has been especially helpful. Can't recommend them enough.

We used More Space for our loft extension in Ealing. It has recently been completed and we are very happy with the outcome. More Space offered a competitive price and once agreed the team sorted planning permission, shared wall agreements and other details in good time. Den and his team worked tirelessly to give us a beautiful extension. They were diligent, professional and courteous during the build. The job was done on time and with no hidden extras. A very happy customer customer.

Overall a good experience with the MoreSpace team who were always on hand when required throughout the process. Inevitably there's been some snagging works needing attention since our loft conversion was finished a few months ago and they're always quick to respond and get someone around to make the necessary amendments/updates. Thank you.

MoreSpace were outstanding, from their design advice, the team and the project delivery. We were extremely happy with everything, especially their snagging and guarantee - we contacted them 2 years post delivery to fix a gutter that broke in a recent storm and they had it fixed within a week. Could not recommend higher.

We had a great experience with Agim and his crew (Egson, Chin and Liu) on our loft conversion. They took their time and paid real attention to detail on the build. The communication throughout was fantastic, Agim took pains to ensure we had clear discussion and achieved clear outcomes on any potential pain/ decision points - which had the result of us feeling fully informed and aware of what was going on at all times. On a personal level (with a toddler, and a baby on the way) the team were fantastic, making the process exciting for our son (and involving him in it in small ways that he still remembers to this day!) and helping to keep stress to a minimum! I would give a strong personal recommendation to Agim and his crew.

We have been delighted with MoreSpace running out side return extension project (led by Stuart). Using them has made the whole process easy for us, with everything dealt with smoothly from initial planning through to completion. We really liked how the payment scheduled worked (based on clear milestones being achieved), which helped to keep the builders on track and ensured the project was completely pretty quickly. The building sub-contractors (led by Mihai and Pedro) were excellent throughout; they were flexible and happy to include additional work beyond the existing scope without impacting the timetable, they have an excellent team of tradesmen to call on, and have been great (very responsive) in dealing with an post-construction/fit out snagging, often responding to things at very short notice. We have already highly recommended MoreSpace and specifically the builders to both neighbours and family and wouldn't hesitate to use them again

Last year we recently finished a ground floor extension / full house refurb with Morespace and would highly recommend them. Having to work through a pandemic was not the easiest thing to do but Stuart Braid (Project Manager) was always on hand to both calmly deal with issues but also reassure us that we would get to the end (which we have done). The build team, led by Alfred and Pawel, were always very attentive and open to helping out and providing their expert opinions and advice throughout the build. They were also considerate and helped work with us to try and make sure that our neighbours weren't impacted too badly when the project was going through the more noisy parts (knocking walls through). All in all we feel as though Morespace have done a great job, had a lot of very useful contacts when it came to kitchen, bathroom and suppliers and dealt with all of our concerns along the way in a professional and helpful manner. If you are looking for a design and build company then you will be in safe hands with these guys (they originally came as a recommendation from friends who had also used them for a loft conversion).

We've used MoreSpace twice - loft & extension, same house - and we will use them again! Efficient, practical contractors that deliver on time. Professional, clear, problem-solving customer service and project management. Well worth it. And really valued support and service after the project completes. I've had suppliers quickly recommended, and both boiler and roof queries resolved even years after the related work completed. Recommended.

Very professional from start to finish. Stuart was a great point of contact, and Louie and his team a pleasure to deal with. Communications were largely very clear; the company took on some existing drawings, dealt with planning, planned and executed the project - a kitchen extension with side return. Would recommend.

Morespace were excellent for my loft conversion. Stuart and the building team run by Aaron did a professional job and honoured my fixed price contract despite prices having gone up recently. Definitely recommend x

Morespace and project manager Stuart Ellerby were fantastic from start to finish. They got us through a tough formal planning process, came up with an efficient design, and built a great extension. Builder Sadri Gashi and his team’s work was exemplary. Highly recommended - we love the finished product!

We used More Space for a Dormer Loft Extension and 1st Floor Bathroom installation and are really pleased that we did. I liked Stuart from the start as he made good design suggestions and he clearly set out all the costs and time frame in the quote. We wanted to squeeze in 2 bedrooms into the loft and they did what they could to maximise the internal space. Gabi and his building team were efficient and friendly. The whole process was stress free with excellent communication throughout. We are planning to use them again for our downstairs extension.

Carried out a rear extension, loft and refurbishment project - MoreSpace were very professional. They are a well run company offering excellent customer service, quality of work and a solid guarantee. Thank you Stuart and team for a stress free and quality job. I will use you again and highly recommend you to others.

We had our side return extension done by MoreSpace and we are really happy with the end result. We had an excellent team working on our project and Stuart was there all the way to help with any questions. The whole build felt really well organized and stress free. I would definitely use them again for any other project in the future. Thank you Stuart and the whole team involved.

We’ve used Morespace twice now and we are very glad we did. They first built a ground floor extension which was done efficiently and to a high standard from start to finish. Louis and his team were on the button at all stages and the result was more than we hoped for. Gabi and his crack team then built a loft for us (in what felt like a few weeks) and again they were helpful, informative and accommodating. Clean and tidy inside our home and on the street outside during both builds which pleased us and all the neighbours. Stuart, Benjamin and Adrian were all very helpful and if we could extend again we would use Morespace without hesitation. Through recommendations several friends have also used MS and are very happy.

I can’t thank more space for helping rebuild our home. Our loft conversion with its own little en-suite is amazing. They were amazing from the initial starting phase to the end project. The team of builders were amazing, and our project manager Ben Styles was truly a gentleman and helped recreate our home not only from inside but outside. We plan to get more work done from MoreSpace. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking to have a loft conversion or any extension to go with morespace. Thank you more space

I had an extension completed by Morespace October - December 2019. They were the most competitive of four quotes and came highly recommended by a neighbour. I’m so glad I did.! They were on time and in budget and the process went smoothly. One huge pro about them is that they offer cost effective solutions when unforeseen issues come up during the build and work with you to help resolve them. I had Ben Styles as the Project Manager and he really went above and beyond. I’ve now lived in my extension for over a year and its been an amazing space for our family. I highly recommend!

I have never done any major work on my flat in the 20 years I have owned it but decided it was time to explore the possibility of a loft conversion. On the recommendation of my neighbour who had used Morespace for his extension I contacted them and from the minute I met Stuart Ellerby who oversaw my project I was beyond impressed. Inevitably never having had such work done before, I was apprehensive about the scale of the work and the disruption, but every single step of the way filled me with confidence. Both Stuart and Gaby (the builder) were professional and attentive and they were always on hand to answer any questions. The designs were well thought through and transformational and provided me with a huge bedroom, dressing room and sizeable bathroom. The work was carried out by Gaby and his team of experts who completed the work well within the time frame and with such care and craftsmanship. The process from beginning to end was smooth and both Stuart and Gaby in particular went above and beyond to ensure that the loft conversion met and indeed exceeded my expectations. I cannot praise and recommend them highly enough and my only regret is that I didn’t take the plunge earlier and have the loft conversion done by them years ago. Great great service and great great work. Thank you.

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!!!
