Dafydd and his team have fitted a new welsh slate roof on part of our farmhouse, built a rear retaining wall, fitted surface water drainage to the rear of the building and rendered one of the two gable end walls in lime mortar. The jobs have been carried out to a very good standard and the workmen have been excellent in both carrying out the work and looking after the property whilst working there. They still have one gable wall to complete but due to weather conditions and the use of lime mortar this will be down when the weather improves. Whenever I have discussed any part of the work they have been quick to react positively. Overall really satisfied with the work and will be hiring them to fit new concrete floors inside the house and Dafydd has already organised a visit from a heating engineer to give a quote on central heating. One final point, the financial cost of the work completed has come in just as the initial quote stated which was very welcoming given scare stories you hear of every increasing bills. No such problem on this job and overall very pleased with Dafydd Lloyd's work. In my experience there a good friendly professional firm to hire.

Restoration & Refurbishment- 9 Apr 2018
I have yet to complete a full report as I am still waiting for Wayne Poulter - WP ALL TRADES , to remove the previous owners kitchen appliances etc from my garage that I allowed him to use during the refurbishment of my home, which was completed in early JAN 2018. I find it strange that there is a very favourable review from a job he completed in Dec 2017, when he spent 2 months refurbishing my home???? I have offered the keys to the garage, left it open for weeks on end and have recently again offered to leave the keys with the manager of the development, for him to collect at his convenience. No response since a message on the 3rd January from him apologising & admitting he had completely forgotten to remove it and would do it ASAP!! Very disappointing and hope that it will be dealt with ASAP as promised. Mrs Clark.

Restoration & Refurbishment- 28 Feb 2019
Paul is an absolute all-round super star! He transformed a completely dilapidated 3 bed house into an amazing home. Project managing the whole thing, liaising with plumbers and electricians and keeping the whole project on track - delivering it on time and on budget. He really takes ownership of the job and does everything to an extremely high standard. His advice is invaluable and he always gives you solutions rather than problems. All this and he doesn't charge the earth either. Paul has also completed a solid wood floor and all the carpentry on a barn conversion for me and once again did a fantastic job. I can't recommend him enough!!

Carpentry- 25 May 2022
He gave a fixed quote then tried to charge more. He never planned the frames down so they stuck out inches past the wall he also only put small hinges on so I asked for the heavy big ones as that was part of his quote not small thin ones he then would only put 2 on each door and now the doors are ripping out of frames as the doors are heavy solid doors and are too heavy for the hinges. Also he hasn’t packed the frames out correctly and I opened one door and the frame came out. Out of the 6 doors and 7 frames all have to have more work done to put right. When he came out to quote he talks the talk and had the right tools but I really wish I had never used him I’m now having to get the job redone. Just wish I had never paid him he has caused more damage and not even done the job properly.

Left the job unfinished after many days of chasing to complete. Quality dependent on individual tradesman. Initially good quality but other workmen poor. In the end I had to throw them offsite.

RMD Replaced three bathrooms, cloak, en-suite and family. The work was planned so that disruption was kept to a minimum and we were give practical advice throughout as we made the detailed decisions during fitting. The work, including cabinet making, was excellent and carried out with an eye for detail. Alex has a 'belt and braces' approach so everything was fitted to last even if it required additional work and preparation. It was all done to budget too and the pricing was fair, open and honest. RMD proved to be great quality, trustworthy, a pleasure to work with and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Restoration & Refurbishment- 28 Jan 2023
The guys have been excellent. Not only have they been prompt and arrived on time every day, their attention to detail is superb. They are always conscious of saving cost for me as a customer, and have given me lots of options throughout the project in order to achieve an excellent final result. They turn up when they say they will (trust me, a rarity with some tradesmen) and will stay as late as needed to make sure they’re on track with what needs doing. Once the day is done, they tidy up and clean so that everything is as neat as can be until they start again the following morning. This was a really tricky job, but no issue was left unresolved and they went the extra mile whenever they could. They’ve been so brilliant I’ve asked them to return to do other works on this property and another based on what I’ve seen in skill and effort on this project. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them and I’m thrilled to have found a great team of guys to work with on future endeavours.

Tiling- 21 Oct 2023
Committed to tile kitchen floor and floors in WC, bathroom and en-suite. Upon completion of kitchen floor we have noticed 2 chipped tiles and asked to replace them however on agreed day team did not show up. We have tried to arrange different date but had no response. They didn’t clean the surface before applying white grout which resulted in yellow staining that can’t be removed.

Roofing (Pitched)- 9 Jan 2023
Absolutely avoid that contractor. Hire them for two projects at same time, one to put new pitched roof in place of flat roof including all demolition works etc. They finished half of the job and get paid up front for almost all of it. They ordered materials for roof trusses which can not be used (checked with my building control). They damaged my neighbour shed as well. When I ask them when they gonna finish they ask for some more money because they can't afford to get to Mansfield. During that job I give them another job which was re-roof on terraced house (another of our properties). They left me with unfinished job. They damaged my property during the work (one of the workers put his foot through the ceiling in new decorated bedroom), the roof is badly leaking. Got another company to check what's going on and was told all is done wrong. We need to dismantle half of the roof and put it back again. Lots of damages inside the house because of massive leak. Two bedrooms upstairs, front room and kitchen walls damaged by the water. We need now another renovation which will be cost a lot. All I've heard from them was we will do that tomorrow. Case will end up in the court. We sent a messages, letters but no response. If you want to ruined your property employe them otherwise avoid.

Restoration & Refurbishment- 23 Feb 2021
Karl is a nice chap, has the skill but lacks time management and his finishing touch is poor unfortunately. He told me it’s going to be 2 man job but the 2nd person was not full time. So he did most of the job on his own and towards the end there was still lots to be done so unfortunately I got a rushed bolched job. He promised spot lights general but left the last room with same old light, part of the work was not completed but had to pay extra for it to be done. Did a nice kitchen and left space for fridge and washing machine but plastered the old sockets to the wall and did not leave any socket to plug the fridge, has to get an electrician out. Also no holes made within the cupboard to pass through the washing machine hose, had to get a plumber. Majority of the flooring and tiles in bathroom has not been filled. He did a ceiling in one of the room and there are leaks within a week. With the amount of money spent, I am disappointed that I still have to pay people to do extra bits and pieces. I am grateful that he tried his best and tried to complete the work. PBut I would have appreciate if he worked at a good pace and not rushed the job towards the end. Without good finishing touches, it looks like I had hired a Bob the builder.
