My recommendation for a builder


Kiteboarder

Recommended Posts

Hi, I haven't posted here very often but this board has been tremendously helpful for me when trying to find out if I should buy on the Champion Hill Estate (I did, thanks!) and to finding a builder. So I thought I should return the favor for people looking for a builder.



After reading numerous threads here and meeting a few builders I decided to go with Mark Elsebach of 'Me Home Improvement'.



I have to say that I have been incredibly happy with Mark's work - first of all he took a lot of time to really understand my requirements, the current state of the place and what needs to be done - which led to a very detailed estimate. As we went along there were a few additional requests I had which he advised me on professionally, costed them and was able to incorporate into his work without any issues.


With regards to the actual work, the quality of finish is top notch. All the agreed work was carried out to highest standard, there were several things done 'as he went along' without having to ask for it and lots of smaller stuff for free, and the whole place looks completely transformed. Don't just take my word for it - a lady living next door, also planning to renovate her flat, came over, took a look around, and was so impressed that she hired him on the spot to do her work too!


Last but not least a personal observation - Mark is extremely helpful. I am a very difficult client - I was clearly only half as much around as I should have been, I was not always able to make proper decisions (due to work abroad) and couldn't get all the things myself I should have done. So Mark picked up all of that for me, without ever getting annoyed about it, from choosing fixtures for the bath, to driving around getting tiles and so on. Without his help I couldn't have done it.



So, long story short - if you need a builder give Mark a shout! His number is 07743 825945.



If anyone wants a more personal feedback please send me a PM.


Thanks again also to everyone on this board for their help in my process of choosing this area!

Chris

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
