Do extension builders near me need insurance?

While it isn’t a legal requirement, most builders carry public liability insurance to cover accidental damage or injury during work. Always ask to see proof of insurance before agreeing to a project.

Do local extension builders offer guarantees on their work?

Yes, many local home extension builders in your area should provide a guarantee covering their workmanship for a set period, often lasting several months to a few years depending on the project size. Always check what the guarantee covers before work begins.

What should I ask before hiring an extension builder?

Ask about previous work, project timelines, cost estimates, and payment terms. It’s also wise to discuss materials, planning permissions, and how any unforeseen issues will be handled. You can easily view examples of previous projects of extension builders near you on MyBuilder.

How much deposit should I pay for an extension project?

Deposits usually range from 10% to 20% of the total cost. Make sure the payment schedule, scope of work, and conditions are clearly written into a contract before the extension project starts.

Conversions - General- 9 Dec 2016
Andrei and his team did an amazing job with my house. They refurbished it to the minutest detail, and made sure everything was executed as requested. They worked consistently and efficiently for 4 1/2 months, in order to deliver. They started around the second week of April, and I was able to move in on the 3rd of August. They did wiring, pipping and flooring. They knocked off a wall to create an open plan lounge/dining area. They removed chimneys to make more space, and re-plastered and re-painted the whole house. I am very happy with my new home and I am already thinking of hiring Andrei and his team to convert the loft. Working with Andrei was a pleasure. During the last month, I was in touch with him everyday and would visit the property 2 or 3 times a week, to check on updates and see how things were being done. It is very difficult to find trustworthy builders, but Tudor Constructions are professional and always happy to listen to their clients. I would definitely recommend Tudor Constructions.

Fatos was an excellent choice. We agreed on a price and a date that was within the week and the price was very reasonable. Fatos also did an extra job for that he didn't charge me for even after I offered to pay him for. I was so pleased with Fatos job and experience that I am going to hire him to do more jobs for me. He was definitely one of the good ones excellent workmanship and trustworthy

Bathroom Fitting- 18 Sep 2021
During the quote nothing was too difficult and Iustin had some great ideas. 'You tell me what you want and we'll do it.' Great. Day one they caused a leak into the kitchen. Halfway through day two we ordered work to stop because it was still leaking. It took several calls to Iustin to resolve. The leak caused the extractor fan in the kitchen to drop. They fixed at the end but the lights on it don't work consistently. Attention to detail was zero. Floor not sealed behind cupboard, wobbly plaster, streaks of white paint on blue (and vice versa), chipped paint, and tiles not evenly placed, with roughly cut edges. New flooring laid before finishing the walls, dropping sealant, dust and paint on it. Many things had to be redone or changed - but they generally did redo when asked. A window they put in is lower than agreed and the pebbledash doesn't match. They installed the vanity unit on the wrong wall. No dust sheets were put down over kitchen surfaces when drilling through concrete, covering everything in a thick layer of dust. The project was contracted to finish by 4 September, but took until 15 September. Iustin did apologise for this on the last day. On the last day, Marin threatened us because we wanted to wait until the job was finished to send the final payment. At that point we'd paid £500 more in instalments than agreed. Receipts for materials contained items not used or not ours. They took away things that we'd paid for. Overall not a great experience.

I have 10+ years within the building industry and continue to pride myself on my strong work ethic and meticulous attention to detail. I let the passion for my craft show through my work by completing things to the highest possible standard. Smaller projects such as singe/double story extensions and garage conversions have been my chosen field of interest. This has been perfectly complimented by my foundation of carpentry and kitchen fitting in which I began my career.

Andre undertook a seemingly impossible task within my own home. They transformed my down stairs storage in a w.c, the gas lines were repositioned, he and his tem also built an outdoor storage area. Their honesty, dedication, and commitment to finding the best solutions both in terms of cost and quality were truly exceptional, they transparently outlined the challenges and worked tirelessly to deliver results that went beyond expectations. I totally recommend Andre and his team if you are looking for a highstandard professioanal that really cares about people and getting the job done!
