Decking- 14 Jun 2022
James Hynes of JCH Home Improvements have just refurbished our decking area. We thought it was a straight forward job, just to renew the decking and a tidy up BUT the original wood was so rotted the whole area had to be renewed. Joists, upright timbers etc We are thrilled with what James has done, so much more work than anticipated but the end result is fantastic. Would thoroughly recommend JCH Home Improvements and we will be using the again.

Extensions- 12 Jan 2019
Wow, wow wow. I do not even know where to begin with this absolute gem we managed to find local to my father in laws project in Southminster, Essex. My in-law is not the easiest guy to work with but John worked so hard to fix all the previous issues a cowboy builder had left him with and he also worked very hard day and night (sometimes 15 hours!!!!) He went above and beyond service. We have never seen such perfect plastering (like glass) and structurally sound work being done by a true professional. He also finished the extension with cladding on the outside and flooring in a huge 80sqm space and to say we are all extremely happy would be an understatement. If you're wondering whether to hire John, please do not! He is worth every penny, he is reasonable and wants to do the job to please you and likes to finish to a very high spec and is always on time and reliable and gives you great ideas to make the house look perfect. Without a doubt the BEST builder we have ever hired and we cannot wait to use John again and again in the future. Thoroughly recommend and wouldn't hesitate to reference any of Johns future work. Thank you so much John, thank you!!

Hard Flooring- 16 Jan 2023
Very disappointed with the quality of the work, expecting higher standard from Connor who came across as polite and supposedly experienced. Chipped laminated pieces of flooring were fitted and of no concern to Connor. On request, he came back the next day without arguing to replace the couple of planks damaged (the surface to cover wasn't very large!). Too much gap that even skirting could not cover in some area. Skirting not neatly glued/attached to the wall. Finishing metallic cover to the stairs not fixed in place properly. VAT added to the flooring bought with already VAT added, which on request Connor removed. By that point I didn't have the heart to ask him to come back and redo a proper job. We had more job in mind but didn't pursue it with Connor.

What to ask a Essex extension builder before hiring?

Before hiring an extension builder in Essex or extension building company in Essex, ask a few key questions to make sure you’re choosing the right professional for your home extension project.

What qualifications and experience do you have as an extension builder in Essex?

An extension builder in Essex should have a strong track record with similar projects and relevant building qualifications or trade memberships, such as the Federation of Master Builders (FMB) or TrustMark.

Will my home extension meet all building regulations and planning requirements?

Your Essex extension builder should ensure the project complies with Building Regulations and, where necessary, handle or assist with planning permissions. Ask how they manage building control inspections and what documentation you’ll receive once the project is complete.

What experience do you have with similar extensions in Essex?

Ask to see examples of their previous work, or view examples of their work on MyBuilder. Ideally projects similar to yours in scale and design. This helps you assess the Essex extension builder’s ability to deliver a result that meets your expectations.

How long will the extension take to complete?

Extension project timelines can vary depending on size, complexity, and weather. A typical single-storey extension might take around 8 - 12 weeks. Request a detailed schedule so you know what to expect and when key milestones will be reached.

Do you offer a guarantee for your work? Most Essex extension builders offer a guarantee or warranty on their work, often between 1 and 10 years depending on the project and materials used. This gives you assurance that any issues will be resolved after completion.
