Featured Reviews for Builders in London

Interni Deco
Builders in London
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 September 2018
“Cristian has just finished a 4-day project in my flat and I couldn't praise him enough. I found him on a neighbourhood website and since the initial contact he has been excellent. He communicates very well, listens, remembers details and also thinks 'for you' by observing how one like things organized, this all beside is absolutely perfect carpentry work. He is a man of many talents, giving a project rate but also working per hourly rate which either were good news. I am truly impressed with Cristian's work, his standard of work is outstanding.”

Chris Ellis Project Service
Builders in London
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 July 2023
“Simply amazing all the way through! Chris visited the property personally before providing a quote, and answered my whole armada of questions. Him and Michele were patient with all my (last minute) changes to the statement of work. The job involved installing a custom double door into a non-standard frame, as well as building a mezzanine/loft bed in the flat, The team themselves were professional, well organised, and extremely nice. They were happy to advise, answer questions about how's and why's, as well as accommodate any changes on the fly. Chris and Michele would pop over to check on the works as well, and suggest improvements or tweaks - you're in good hands throughout the entire project!”
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.”
URBAN LIVING.LONDON
Builders in London
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 April 2021
“We used Urban Living for our full renovation. We met with Rafal and immediately connected and as this was our first building project we found this really helpful. We were provided a competitive quote and then followed up several references so we could see his team’s work. Once the build got underway we dealt with Rafal on a daily basis. The whole team were hard working and professional, and this was also recognised by our neighbours who gave positive comments about them. We are happy to recommend them and would use them again in the future.”

Hurlingham Developments
Builders in London
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 December 2022
“Hurlingham Developments were instructed to complete our entire 3 storey home renovation. This involved total refurbishment and renovation of our 6 bedroom property and garden. We chose Andy and his team as he was honest and reliable and got back to me on all our requests. This was a big job and wasnt without its hurdles. Andy project managed the whole build was on site regularly and informed us ahead of time should projects be delayed. If you want a reliable builder, who is happy to give impartial advice and get the job done choose Hurlingham. We are now using Andy's team to paint our interior walls and windows.”

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

When looking for a London 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 London 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.
