We did not go ahead with this job as we did not purchase the property, however, Craig and his team phoned me and explained to me over the phone what is needed and provided me an estimate over the phone which is what I was looking for. This helped me and put in to context what I was dealing with. Thanks very much.

Carpentry- 2 Dec 2022
Douglas and his team were timely and professional. I am impressed with their expertise and they ensured that the work completed was of high quality. Good value. They went beyond just installing both a front and interior door but also took their time to ensure the area was thoroughly clean once work was completed. Thank you Douglas and Nathan for helping out getting the new door unstuck in between the staircase even though it wasn't part of your duties. I'm hoping to hire you soon for other carpentry work and some decorating throughout the flat.

Restoration & Refurbishment- 17 Jul 2016
Valter was very impressive on his initial visit with some exciting ideas for the house improvements and we had no hesitation in choosing Happy Building above the other two building firms who quoted. Having signed off on the budget and scope of work, Valter's team of builders arrived. We were hugely impressed with the skill, experience and work ethic of the team; the fact that they arrived early each morning smiling underlined the "Happy Building" epithet; Jarek, the site foreman, had an especially cheery demeanour. The work involved stripping the walls back to bricks, removing walls, reinforcing foundations, plastering, extending the bathroom and removing one bedroom to create a large ensuite bedroom. The latter certainly would not have been done without Valter's vision and patience in explaining how it would look. We were able to deviate from the original plans without any problem which was very important in achieving the final look which we had desired. Valter was very careful in sticking to time and budgets which I had never experienced before with builders. The kitchen, bathroom, two bedrooms, living room and hallways were finished to the highest possible specification within our budget. There were one or two small features which, with hindsight, we would have improved such as door handles and shower fittings, however this was down to us not specifying exactly what we wanted. These are very minor details and a tiny part of the overall picture.

Plumbing- 1 Oct 2026
Very happy with SAS from start to finish. Moved to property in May 2026 & had banging pipes in loft (really bad) & SAS said that it was years of old pipe work which didn’t need to be there. Didn’t help if neighbours were using washing machine & taps running etc…Anyway, don’t have the issue anymore as some old pipes got taken out. Very happy with result.

I highly recommend Aiden, he has done a fantastic job converting our garage into a room. I cannot fault the quality of his work and he was flexible to changes we requested. He works quickly and methodically and left the work area tidy at the end of each day. He communicates well so we always knew what was happening and when.

Restoration & Refurbishment- 9 Oct 2019
£20K+ contract. Was it money well spent, NO. We expected a professional well executed job, we got neither. It's his way, or no way. If you comment on his work, he argues back, off comes his work belt ready to walk off. No client should be left in tears but this happened more than once. A slight delay (with notification) of one stage payment resulted in a threatening email, mediation with his wife, insistence of a signed contract which they broke. Upon completion, he refused to give us time to inspect his work, refused to look at the work together or return. He insisted on final payment immediately despite the work not being to our complete satisfaction (broken contract), Photos available to evidence we are not being unreasonable. We paid 96% but he never returned and the retention did not cover the cost of the appalling ply boxing, replace scratched seal unit to back door, finish tiled floor, remove sharp edges to tile edges, leaking seal to doors, plus many more. We tried maintain a working relationship but this took significant effort, diplomacy and reassurance from us. The swearing was an embarrassment. We would not recommend him or work with him. We suspect the job was too much, too complex and he is not used to consulting with clients. His reply to the above will be; we were his most awkward clients ever and he will refer to all his positive feedbacks. We felt we were bullied throughout the contract and disappointed with the final finish.

Remedial work and loft conversion. Dan / LR did a fantastic job at converting our loft space into a lovely storage area, after a previous (unrelated) tradesman damaged our home. They stripped out the previous work and built in new reinforced floors etc. Dan and his team are highly experienced, knowledgable, professional, kind and helpful. They also managed the communications with Structural Engineers and Building Control incredibly well and took the stress away from us. I strongly recommend. 10/10. Couldn’t be happier with the quality of workmanship and customer service / support. Transparency and clear communication from quote to on-time completion. They really went the extra mile and were very empathetic with the challenging circumstances we were in at the time. Dan is the only builder I will use and recommend going forward.
