Has anyone used Martin's builders?

[SEnewbie]

Hi

We are about to purchase a renovation project & are considering using Martin's builders.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Pm me if you have a second.

Thanks so much in advance.

Is this the same builder mentioned under the 'avoid' heading already posted.

[SEnewbie]

Hi

No they are a different company. Just added website above to avoid confusion but thank you.

Hi SEnewbie,

Did you get any feed-back on martinsbuilders? We are buying a property in East Dulwich and thinking of asking them to quote, just wondering if you had received any recommendations?

We have used Martins for our rear extension , roof repair and bathroom renovation. The plumbers electricians plasterers tilers painters roofers are all excellent. They gave the best quote and the company is responsive and flexible They are mostly from Madeira which on Wikipedia says the island has a reputation for construction. On any big job lasting months there are going to be issues that arise but to be frank there haven't been any issues at all with the quality of work. So thumbs up from my experience

My programme was supposed to be 10 weeks but nearly 6 months later, I ended the job. I am still dealing with the outstanding issues........

Thanks everyone

I've posted elsewhere about Martin's - they carried out a full refurb / kitchen extension for us last year. Like Matt above, we thought they were great. Would definitely recommend them.

Any builder that has to rely on local 'forums' are suspect.

Hi - we are also thinking of using them...anymore feedback? Did you go with them SEnewbie and WillyH? Veronesi - would you mind also sending me the pm?

Thanks!

Hi Veronesi,

You said on the ED Forum to contact you for some honest feedback on Martin's builders, so I'm curious. How did your work go? I'm looking to do a bathroom renovation and wasn't pleased with the company I used in my last property. Would love to hear your thoughts on their quality/speed/professionalism.

Thanks!

Hi everyone, I met with Martin from Martins Builders this morning after seeing their advertising board outside numerous homes in the local ED area. We are looking to build a rear extension and a loft conversion. Martin was very knowledgable and I had confidence in what he was saying. I would really appreciate any feedback you may have before I go forward with Martin. Thank you so much. If you have any recommendations for other builders that would also be appreciated as I would like to get a few quotes.

[SEnewbie]

They've just finished our house renovation & side return. Would definitely recommend to anyone & we'll use again in the future. We found them very good.

Happy to pm with any queries.

Someone was asking for other recommendations. I used http://www.aspectconstruction.uk.com/ and was very happy with them.
