Builders needed - can anyone recommend

We used Affleck for a kitchen renovation but I wouldn't recommend them. The actual quality of the work is good, but they made quite a few mistakes in the design and planning which they tried to blame us for. I found the director quite aggressive and totally unable to accept blame when even his builder was telling him that Affleck employees were responsible for the problems in front of me. Also very aggressive in chasing payment, emailing me the day after the invoice was sent demanding payment even though they knew I was in hospital! I had some builders email me through this forum but some never even bothered to send a quote after visiting the house. Good luck with it all, but I'd steer clear of Affleck.
Chapmaintenance has done a great job with both my kitchen and bathroom, initially found them on rated people and since then I recommended them to family and friends. They do full property maintenance and very reliable too. I am happy to pass on their number if you're interested.

Hi Kamath,

I highly recommend QC builders, I have seen the works he has done first hand and i cann assure you it is quality work. He gets a lot of his work fixing the shoddy work other builders have left behind. I can PM his contact details if you would like?

Good luck!

    • Kwik Fit buggered up an A/C leak diagnosis for me (saying there wasn't one, when there was) and sold a regas. The vehicle had to be taken to an A/C specialist for condensor replacement and a further regas. Not impressed.
    • Yes, these are all good points. I agree with you, that division has led us down dangerous paths in the past. And I deplore any kind of racism (as I think you probably know).  But I feel that a lot of the current wave of xenophobia we're witnessing is actually more about a general malaise and discontent. I know non-white people around here who are surprisingly vocal about immigrants - legal or otherwise. I think this feeling transcends skin colour for a lot of people and isn't as simple as, say, the Jew hatred of the 1930s or the Irish and Black racism that we saw laterally. I think people feel ignored and looked down upon.  What you don't realise, Sephiroth, is that I actually agree with a lot of what you're saying. I just think that looking down on people because of their voting history and opinions is self-defeating. And that's where Labour's getting it wrong and Reform is reaping the rewards.   
    • @Sephiroth you made some interesting points on the economy, on the Lammy thread. Thought it worth broadening the discussion. Reeves (irrespective of her financial competence) clearly was too downbeat on things when Labour came into power. But could there have been more honesty on the liklihood of taxes going up (which they have done, and will do in any case due to the freezing of personal allowances).  It may have been a silly commitment not to do this, but were you damned if you do and damned if you don't?
    • I'd quit this thread, let those who just want to slag Labour off have their own thread.  Your views on the economy are worth debating.  I'm just stunned how there wasn't this level of noise with the last government.  I could try to get some dirt on Badenoch but she is pointless  Whilst I am not a fan of the Daily Mirror at least there is some respite from Labour bashing. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/grenfell-hillsborough-families-make-powerful-36175862 https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/nigel-farage-facing-parliamentary-investigation-36188612
