  • Single Storey Rear Extension and garage conversion

    9.75Verified Review

    I engaged Phil from General Building to build my rear extension. Phil and his team started mid july and very pretty much done by end sept, came back in mid dec after other trades were done to finish off the work. 1. Phil and team were onsite, on-time every single day. There were no stoppages except for weather 2. Worked very well with the other trades I engaged (UFH/Heat pump, Kitchen, tiler,decorator) 3. Always focussing on getting it right first time with top quality. I will gladly recommend Phil for any building work.

  • Full kitchen extension build, removal of en-suite and all new plumbing

    10Verified Review

    We highly recommend Phil and his whole team. From quote to completion - they were polite, friendly, approachable and the quality of work was carried out to an excellent standard. Communication was mainly through Phil’s wife Kelly over email who is lovely, helpful and kept us up to date on changes, timeframes and any unexpected extra costs throughout the build which was appreciated. The build itself went fairly smoothly and we were pleased with how they communicated with our neighbours. We are very happy with our kitchen extension and recommend Phil and his team for any project without hesitation!

  • Moving an exterior door and window and rebuilding the brickwork

    10

    Right from the word go, this company were so professional and impressive. We received the quote for the work relatively quickly and we were happy to proceed. The job itself was not a difficult one but none the less it needed to be executed correctly so the new door and window we were having made , would fit . They also did some ground work for us , which was excellent. We would use this company again and highly recommend them.

  • Rebuild of Bay , installation of new windows

    9.75Verified Review

    Having used General Building Co previously when they built an extension for us we had no hesitation in employing them to rebuild the bay. The build included demolition of existing structure, installation of steels, brick work , new windows, internal plastering etc. They did an excellent job, are trustworthy, reliable and always provide value for money. . ?? ?? ?? ?? ??
