Neighbours highly recommended Totus and we are extremely happy with the loft and kitchen extension Totus delivered for us!
The work was completed to a high standard, timely to the day, and the team were expertly and a real joy to work with. The after-care has also been phenomenal.
This was our first building project and Andrew, who runs the company with his brother Terry, was there with us every step of the way with guidance and advice. He was invaluable when it came to discussing what's possible and also helped us a lot with design ideas, materials that would work and where to source what we needed.He was always there to bring ideas and advise us expertly on the pros and cons of various options. Mitch, our site manager, is wonderful and was always happy to explain in an easy manner, listen, bring great ideas, discuss options and adapt plans. The whole team were a joy to have around and.the neighbours were impressed with their courtesy, care not to impact neighbouring properties and tidiness - areas where building projects seem to often lack.
The whole team worked incredibly hard. Totus had promised at the start of the project to complete by Christmas, and that's exactly what they did!
We've been living with our wonderful new space for 2 years now and there isn't a thing we would like to change or are unhappy with and not a day that we're not grateful for our new and improved home.

Totus recently completed our ground floor extension. This is the third time we do work in the house and my only regret is not having come across Totus years ago when we bought the house.
Totus took over our project after we had a major disaster with the previous builders. Overnight all our issues disappeared! Totus service and quality of finish is outstanding (and my attention to detail is EXTREMELY high) and I couldn’t recommend them highly enough. They are extremely experience in what they do which comes across from day 1 and helps reduce stress and have the best tradesmen out there from carpenters and electricians to the decorators. Unfortunately we have now finished the renovations in the house but if we ever need to do any more work to this house or any other house I will without a doubt be using Totus again and I dare say I know I’ll enjoy the process! Thanks Andrew and Terry and team, we absolutely love our house!!!

Our project was to extend and remodel the ground floor of our house and enlarge and alter the attic space. We were living in the house throughout the works so it was important that the job was completed in a timely manner whilst still being done to a high standard. Andrew worked with us to manage the disruption as much as possible and was always available to offer help and advice. He explained any options to us thoroughly so we were in a good position to make decisions. Any problems that developed were solved without fuss and they spent time and effort to make sure they were happy with the final outcome. The crew were hard working and polite and worked extra hours if necessary to get things done. I am very pleased we chose Totus to work on our house and would be happy to recommend them.

We were highly recommended Totus for one of our projects in North West London. After interviewing and vetting 10 different contracting companies, we chose Totus on their professionalism, large team, organisation and communication. We were not disappointed and Totus frequently exceeded expectations. The ability of their team to work to a very high level delivering a top-quality product on schedule is extremely important to us as our company manages several projects simultaneously and don't the time to micromanage building works. We have Totus working on further projects given the previous success.

We engaged Totus for a complete renovation of our five bedroom Edwardian house and a single storey rear extension. From our initial meeting with Andrew during the proposal phase, we were impressed by his professionalism and his commitment to delivery (the only one who got us an estimate early!). That same professionalism was also what we experienced during the build process from him and his entire team. Taking on such a big renovation was new to us and we had heard many horror stories from friends as to how such projects usually run behind schedule, how hands on you need to be with the builders etc. That was not true for us when we worked with Totus, in the end it was Andrew who reminded us to meet for routine catch ups since we felt he had it under control and just left his team to it.
I would also add to that every single member from Totus had very good work etiquettes. Every time I went (unexpectedly as we lived only 5 minutes away) the full team were hard at work. I felt they took pride in their work and getting it right.
All in all, excellent experience and have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

Together with excellent architects, Totus were the cheapest of the contractors we contacted, offered to deliver faster than the competitors and delivered on time to a high quality a complete transformation and extension of the downstairs of our house. We are very happy with the result.

We engaged Totus to do a full renovation of our 5 bedroom house, including a significant double-storey extension, re-roofing, re-wiring, heating, landscaping etc. Just before they started I was relocated abroad for work, so we had to manage the entire project remotely. I cannot recommend Totus more highly. Terry, Andrew and Vadym we’re professional and helpful from start to finish, despite some of the challenges with us being abroad. The quality of their work is also superb, across every trade. Having refurbed 3 houses now, the experience with Totus in terms of professionalism, communication, flexibility and quality was in a different league and would not hesitate to recommend them.

Totus were introduced to us by our architect to build a single storey rear extension to our home and we are delighted with the final results. We lived on site throughout the entire construction and were happy that the project was completed to a high standard, to budget and most importantly on time. Andrew and Terry were a pleasure to work with, they are both approachable, engaging and professional. They are highly organised and this was clearly reflected during the project. We were equally impressed with the dedicated onsite team who were totally committed and worked diligently throughout the project. We are very happy that we chose Totus and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

We engaged Totus to do a single storey extension and downstairs refurb after a recommendation from a friend.
Andrew, Terry and the team were professional, organised and very easy to work with throughout the project. They delivered on time, discussed any required changes with us in advance and kept us informed and up to date throughout the build. Several issues arose with our kitchen designer and Totus were extremely helpful in assisting us in getting the project completed. We are extremely pleased with the work undertaken and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them to work with.

It was our first time doing the extension and building work of this size and we are very pleased that a friend recommended Totus for this job. We did a side return, loft conversion, new kitchen and full refurbishment on a Victorian property. Andrew and Terry were always professional, friendly and efficient. Our site manager Mitch and his team had worked really hard to deliver on time and to the level of finish that we desired.
We used Totus recommended suppliers for the kitchen, bathrooms and flooring and we are very pleased with our new space. We would not hesitate to hire them again and have recommended them to the friends who are planning similar project.

Totus recently built a single storey rear extension on our house in Wimbledon and we are delighted with the end result. Andrew and Terry were excellent to work with and managed the project very efficiently. Although most of the design had been finalised when we first contacted Totus, they were able to provide excellent advice on some minor changes that have made a huge difference as well as solving some issues we had encountered.
The on-site team worked to a very high standard and were extremely hard working which is testament to the fact that the project was finished within 15 weeks which is excellent considering the amount of work involved. After finishing the project they have also been happy to solve any minor issues that have arisen. We are very happy we chose Totus and I would highly recommend Totus to anyone in the future.

We work with Totus on the full renovation of our house and the team was professional and on time with the job (they estimated 6 months of work and delivered in 6 months). The quality of the finish is also very good and although some mistakes were made along the way we would not hesitate to reccomand working with Andrew and his team. Even after delivering the prj they were always available to help out with any small follow up or investigations required and we feel we will be able to rely on them and the good quality of thier work in the future too.
