Recommendation for builder - extension and renovation

Recommended Posts

I'd like to recommend Kevin from Y and J Builders for building projects you have at home. My reasons are:


1) he showed fantastic attention to detail and did an absolutely brilliant job to extend and renovate our very old and ramshackle Victorian terrace kitchen. Through Kevin's determination and vision, we have a totally transformed space, and he has had to deal with knocking down supporting walls, putting in new foundations, joists, asbestos removal, replacing lead pipework etc. to make it a top quality job. He also made our garden a far more useable space, which hadn't been part of our original thinking, but it is fantastic and above and beyond what we'd expected. Nothing has fazed him or his team, and he very much demonstrated a 'can do' attitude to our work which we initially thought would be a small project, but turned into something far more complex owing to structural deficiencies in our existing house. He is meticulous, which has also meant the job taking longer, but has definitely been worth it.


2) great communication with us throughout the job from start to finish.


3) hardworking - Kevin was often here well into the evenings and weekends to get the work done.


4) considerate - to our neighbours and our personal space. We have a young child and baby on the way and Kevin did everything he could within the circumstances to accommodate our needs.


5) reliable and trustworthy - Kevin has been at pains to ensure we have been happy with the work, well after we paid our final instalment, which to me is a very good sign.


His team have also been great, top notch decorator and various other contractors whom he works with. Overall, if you want a personal service, with a highly skilled and knowledgeable builder with a great attention to detail and appreciation for quality, we'd recommend Kevin. Details below:

I recommend Kevin and his team. I found them to be personable, professional and flexible and with a genuine sense of pride in the work. They obviously have a lot of experience in the trade, and are generous with sharing helpful tips and ideas in a diplomatic way. Would definitely have them back for further work in the future.

    • Why not watch a video? I know it’s not the same but it saves such grotesque waste. 
    • I have ordered from them and they do free delivery within a certain radius.  Have only had some of their vegetarian dishes which were all good including the onion bhajis that come with a very tasty spicy green sauce accompaniment.  Also, they start service from 1230 pm if you want lunch.
    • The bin outside Harris Primary School has been a spot for fly-tipping weekly. This is now a hazard for the children going to school every day - they have to walk over the rubbish to get into the school!  The rubbish has been there since Saturday, it is Tuesday 23 April today and nothing has been done! I've see a person who lives across the road dumping her house rubbish to into the bin but I believe it is not only her now but other people too! This has been reposted to Southwark Council:  https://report.southwark.gov.uk/report/5888283
    • This should be supplied by the NHS through a GP referral.  Her height and weight need to be known.  Or are you looking for a loaned one?
