We moved into a new build house, which had a few funny alcoves which were a complete waste of space. We contacted Charlie after a recommendation from a family member. Charlie came round and had a look at the spaces we had and came up with a fantastic solution to maximise the available space for storage. He came back with a few quotes for the designs, each with different options for hardware specifications and their related pricing. After agreeing to go ahead, Charlie got to work making the units for us. We weren’t in a rush for the work to be completed, however Charlie was able to get them made in great time and was asking to come and fit them. The workmanship and attention to detail in the work was second to none, he even went as far as to machine a fresh piece of skirting to match our existing skirting board, so the unit in our en-suite looks as if it has always been there. The units look great and have given us the storage space we were missing, with adjustable shelving and soft close doors. Charlie was always very professional and trustworthy, we felt more than comfortable with him in our house and were happy to leave him alone to carry on with the work when we were out. Overall we are over the moon with the work Charlie has done for us, and would highly recommend him to anyone!

Restoration & Refurbishment- 19 Nov 2018
From asking for a quote, right to the last coat of paint, David was professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. The quote was extremely detailed and accurate - David visited the property with all the other trades that would be involved. There were a few minor extras - items that revealed itself as the house was stripped back to brick - but this is to be expected. Any problems/extras were clearly communicated (with a possible solution) and quoted with enough time to assess and review. The process was planned thoroughly and for the amount of work that needed to be done, I am still amazed that the work was completed ON TIME! The end result is a piece of work to be proud of - the quality of his work and the finishes exceeded my expectation. David is a good communicator - I live far away from the property, but I always knew what was happening on site, with regular phone calls, FaceTime-calls, photographs of progress etc. I recommend anyone to use DMR Plastering & Building. If I had another property to refurbish I would contact David without a doubt.

Charles and his team took out and replaced all the Windows and some exterior doors on my house, they also strengthened the bay window at the front as it had a little bit of movement. It worked out cheaper getting Charles and his team to do the work (windows were supplied by a contact of his) than getting a large chain company in to do it as they would not touch the bay window as they reckoned it needed the whole bay dismantling and refitting ( it needed a steel support replaced as the previous owners window fitters had taken it out for some reason?). Charles and his team were prompt and worked tirelessly throughout the day and were also helpful in any snagging tasks that popped up during the course of the fitting. Charles has also fitted and tiled a complete bathroom for me in the past and i would not hesitate in contacting him again if i need work in the future.

Extensions- 11 Jun 2020
We are extremely satisfied with the work carried out by AJ Contracts, to build a side extension on our 1920's chalet bungalow. Andy and his team are very professional, reliable and knowledgeable. Their attention to detail is 2nd to none. We would be very happy to use them again and have recommended them to all our friends & family. Do not hesitate to contact this company for any size of project. After a very bad experience with a previous builder, Andy put us at ease and gained our trust and put our minds at rest. He has done an amazing job. We couldn't be happier.

Rip out extensive flood damage to three story house, replace walls, ceilings, staircases, skirting boards, flooring and kitchen. Jacob went above and beyond to help us in an extremely stressful time. We felt we could trust him implicitly. He kept us up to date (we did not live locally to the house) and did a fantastic job. We would recommend him without hesitation.
