Electrical- 21 Jan 2023
Outstanding. My perspective on the work assessment, process and completion could not be more positive. A wonderful team of knowledgeable and dedicated electricians. Highly professional in their work, always aiming to get the highest quality result. Communication was excellent - emails and telephone calls returned promptly and those working in my property were able to explain the issues, process and outcomes in language I could understand without the use of too much technical jargon, which would've left me feeling anxious. Certificates were completed and sent as soon as the job had been completed and the works were finished within the estimated time frame thanks to their dedication to their task. My property was kept tidy with minimal intrusive work and my opinion was sought when there was an option of how to proceed with a task if it required intervention that would affect the decoration of the room. These interventions have been minor and are easily touched up and most importantly I have fully functioning and safe electrics in my property.

Carpentry- 19 Jan 2019
Some good points, some bad. Jobs crossed over which meant mine was delayed and he kept disappearing to sort problems with another job. This made me late starting to trade from that building. Only put ceiling on the office and none of the other rooms leaving all cabling/electrics bare. Added extra on at the end of the job for electrics. Used ready fixed concrete plinths(?) to run ceilings from which meant the walls were too high. This made the 2nd tier useless due to there being only just over 5' before you hit your head on the ceiling. Very expensive when taking the value of the materials and time taken into consideration. Nice guy but would not use him again. My advice... get everything drawn up and in writing! This is my second time using mybuilder and my last. It is full of cowboys and when reported, mybuilder do NOTHING about it!!

Derek has done a few carpentry and construction jobs for me. He is extremely methodical and neat, is accurate on his timings, works quickly and leaves your home tidy. He seems to know what he’s doing with anything from building a cupboard, or shower-boarding to putting down a deck. I’ll definitely have him back.

Dave installed a new cloakroom for me to a very high standard. He is also fitting a new kitchen. I used Dave to fit a kitchen five years ago in my previous home. I was particularly pleased with his workmanship and so approached him once more. I would highly recommend Dave Tully to those looking for a high standard of workmanship.

Restoration & Refurbishment- 11 May 2017
I was absolutely dreading the whole project, and did not have a clue where to start with all the tradesmen that I would need. I found Alex throught his site, made contact, and he and Jon came round promptly and at a time to suit me to look at the job. Immediately that evening I knew there was a God after all, because Alex and Jon were so re-assuring, easy to get on with, and actually just two really nice chaps!! My comment that evening to them was 'you are nothing like a builder... and that's a good thing!!' Alex sent his quote within a few days, and it was to my mind both realistic and fair. I then handed them a set of keys, and so the whole project started. The great thing is Alex project manages it all, co-ordinates the various tradesmen; Jon did a great job too dealing with deliveries and thoroughly checking them off. You should never under-estimate just how much that sort of thing takes stress out of embarking on a big project like this. I can honestly say I have had NO PROBLEMS whatsoever crop up through the entire project; yes of course issues arise but Alex's communications and advice are both first class and freely given and the issues never became problems. The standard of workmanship and attention to detail is first class and I am incredibly pleased with how my house has turned out - Alex, Jon and his dedicated team should be rightly proud of what they have achieved. Huge huge thanks!!

Restoration & Refurbishment- 4 Dec 2020
We own a very old cottage, which needed updating. After meeting with James & Dave, we decided to hire Kingsmarque construction to lay our new floors, fit underfloor heating, and to do some odd jobs around the house. This was the best decision! The guys are extremely professional, knowledgeable, and reliable. Even though the job took a little longer than expected, they were still on top of their game until the very final day, even working at weekends and late evenings to get the job done, well done! We have dealt with other contractors before, and by far the best I've experienced! Will be using this company shortly to carry out some extra works!
