Builder recommendation and idea of costs please?

Hello!


We'd love to do some work on our kitchen and wondered if anyone could recommend an affordable/competitive local builder who could pop round and have a look/give us a quote?


I also wondered if anyone had done something similar to what we'd like to do and has any idea of price we would be looking at? We can't afford to do a side return extension but basically we'd like to do the following:


Remove old kitchen range chimney breast taking up space in kitchen.

Remove old outside toilet and make that part of the kitchen.

Build up by about the level of 5 bricks on the back of the kitchen where the roof slopes and remove a very low big RSJ.

Add a bifolding door onto the garden.

Move around current kitchen units so there's room for our dining table next to the bifolding windows.

Maybe put in 3 small double glazed windows and remove bay window but not sure on this.


Thanks so much for this, any help or suggestions much appreciated!!!!

Hey - we had our kitchen redone last year by Dennis who was very good, here's his email address...

Also, I've found a great builder recently who's helped with the garden and other bits and bobs around the house, so he might also be interested and it's always good to get a couple of quotes. His name is Richard, mobile: 07719 098350


Hope this helps,

Hi there


I would happily recommend David O'Brien, I've put a review of him on this thread including the work he did for us.

Since I posted last time we have used his team to fit a new back door and lead flashing and guttering. We have been very happy with all the work his guys have done and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Dulwich Multitrade, 296 Lordship Lane, tel: 02084807162 are terrific and can do absolutely everything - no need to bring in any outside contractors. We have used them several times and have found them to be reliable, efficient, pleasant and also reasonable pricewise.

    • Not sure what point you are making I have long since been aware of the issues, and would never have gone for it.  Maybe it cannot be applied without capturing damp.  I question why government part funded it.  But I also question why individuals did not do their own research.  This took me five second, it took longer to cut and paste it here: Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors The RICS advises homeowners to get independent advice from a qualified professional who is not affiliated with the installer or manufacturer. They also recommend not installing spray foam in listed or protected buildings without prior consent.   Property Care Association The PCA recommends that homeowners carry out appropriate checks to determine if spray foam is suitable for their roof. They also created a protocol for surveyors and lenders to make informed decisions about properties with spray foam insulation.     HomeOwners Alliance The HomeOwners Alliance recommends that homeowners avoid installing spray foam roof insulation.
