Extensions- 2 May 2019
I would like to say that Danny and his team did a fantastic job on the single storey extension to our home, they were very efficient and tidy during the whole build and kept us informed at each stage. I was very impressed with the speed in which it was completed, and the building inspector also commented on how much of a good job it was. Danny is very approachable and informative and added some really nice touches to the extension after consulting us which gave it that bit extra! some of his ideas I wouldn’t have thought of, I would not hesitate to recommend Danny, we are very happy and looking forward to appreciating their hard work.

Loft Conversion- 17 Aug 2020
Summary Joe and his team brilliantly completed a complicated roof extension for us. It involved building out a dormer to the back of the house, re-arranging the stairs, re-arranging internal walls and fit out of many shelves and built in wardrobes. Organised Joe was extremely organised from the start, accurately pricing and then setting out a comprehensive contract. Then going on to organise the engineering calculations, wall party agreement and working with me to ensure my ideas were realised throughout the build. Skilled, safe, a joy to work with... Joe and his team were polite, tidy, safe, considerate and skilled in carpentry and roof building. They created a beautiful extension and added little pieces of detail that really helped personalise the works. They also have a good selection of supportive tilers, plasterers and painters who really help to create a well finished building design. Flexible and accommodated change easily. Through out the works Joe, responded to change really well, always accommodating ideas where possible and letting me know if there was any price or programme increase as a result beforehand so I could check my budget was okay. He was really inventive and great to work with often working out quicker and cheaper ways to get the job done without ever stinting on quality. In conclusion I recommend Joe and his team most highly.

Painting & Decorating- 15 Dec 2016
Nile at Cadogan contracts was a pleasure to deal with. I have dealt with 20+ tradesmen in the past 5 years in many trades. Nile, and his painting team (esp Maurice), were the best I have ever encountered. From start to finish, they were highly professional and competent, and gave me a competitive quote. Nile's service included a PDF contract outlining clearly what was involved in the job. Maurice, who did the painting, came early in the morning and even on the weekend to finish the job to a tight deadline. He was extremely polite and courteous, meticulous in his work, and constantly asking for my feedback. He asserted many times that I, as the customer, should have the final say on whether the job has been done satisfactorily. Maurice did all the right things to prep the room: painting sheets, masking tape everywhere, removing/covering sockets, prepping surfaces, filling gaps, preserving character. He was extremely tidy and hoovered after himself. I would recommend Cadogan Contracts without hestiation. They were superb and I WILL be using them again in the future if I need work

I would highly recommend Bart and Topsolve and will be using him again in the future for a number of projects. He is a scrupulously clean worker and kept all of the inevitable mess contained, thoroughly cleaning at the end of each day. Bart also kept me fully informed at every step. The finished room is immaculate with absolutely no evidence of where the original wall was. The standard of decorating is excellent as is his attention to detail. He is reliable, turns up as promised and works the full day. Nothing is too much trouble. Thank you Bart.

Me Cristiano, gave a proper estimate I cluding all materials and VAT. He came on time and did an excellent job. This involved repairing plastering and painting in several parts of the house. He is completely trustworthy. He keeps you appraised of how things are going. He is very careful to clean up everything and put things back in place. He finished on time and the result is very high quality. We would hire him again and highly recommend him.

Restoration & Refurbishment- 2 Aug 2020
Started off really well. He seemed like a really good trustworthy gentlemen. Paid him all the money he promised hed finish it all and he didnt. He didnt even respond to my builder and didnt respond to my calls and numerous messages completely blanked me. And lots of issues with the work he did. I dont recommend him at all. Fooled me completely he wasnt even cheap. I have to fork out more money to finish the work he didnt do and i paid him for. Even the laminate flooring i need to redo half a job he did and took all the money. BEWARE. Hel give you a written garantee aswell all a lie you wont be able to reach him. I really dont like leaving negative feedback but for him i really have no choice.
