We used Emerald & Clay and they did a great job. We had to completely rebuild the back of the house which was subsiding. We put in a new kitchen and opened up the back of the house to the garden. We also put in a new bathroom, re-wired, re-plumbed and re-plastered the house, put in a new boiler and outside they landscaped the garden for us. They project managed the build very well and stuck to budgets. Will is the contact. His email address is [email protected] and his mobile is 075 8864 8868.

I would very happily recommend the builders we used- they are called Emerald & Clay and did a superb job for us. We had what sounds like quite a similar build, and initially struggled to find builders that could both take on a project of this size and also that were reasonably priced and that we trusted. (All important things to me!) We actually bought what turned out to be a bit of a wreck and it needed a lot of work! We had to rebuild the back of the house which was subsiding a bit. We put in a new kitchen and opened up the whole back of the house to the garden. We also put in a new bathroom- and they were creative in suggesting we didn?t replace the ceiling in the bathroom, leaving it vaulted with new skylights which transformed the space. We also re-wired, re-plumbed and re-plastered the house. We also did a loft conversion, repointed a lot of external brickwork, put in a new boiler and outside they landscaped the garden for us creating a really nice patio garden, retaining a little bit of lawn for our dog. I have to say I was a bit overwhelmed with the amount of work we ended up doing, but they project managed the build very well and stuck to budgets. Also a massive bonus to me was that they were very considerate about keeping things tidy and working around us, as we remained living in the house during most of the build. We have recently moved house so can?t offer to show you their work, but can always send you pics if you want. My main contact there was Will.

Hi, I'm planning to start cycling to work from ED to Blackfriars, and wondered if anyone could share a good route. Is Denmark Hill- Camberwell- Elephant the fastest? I wondered if going through Burgess Park might be better? Appreciate any thoughts, thanks Charlotte
