excellent work 5*

Last year, Ashbridge Builders, also completed a full kitchen reconfiguration, installed a new bathroom suite, and converted our garage into a bedroom with en-suite.  We would fully recommend Ashbridge Builders.  John was extremely professional and reliable.  He was always on hand to answer any questions we had.  The work is completed to an incredibly high standard and we are delighted.  The house was kept very tidy throughout the building works by Louie, the foreman, on site.  We would definitely ask Ashbridge Builders to complete any future works we need.

Building and finishing a new porch

John and his team have been courteous, efficient and communicative throughout.  John specifically has popped by in person many times to double-check requirements and timings and answer any questions we had.  No detail was too small.  Very trustworthy.  Excellent in every way and highly recommended.

Staircase replacement, porch renovation and electrical fittings.

I employed Ashbridge builders to build extensions to the side and front of my house and to completely refurbish my original home.  The work was completed at the end of 2023.  I can’t recommend them more highly.  All the work was completed to the highest standard, within the stated timescale and to budget.  In addition they were a delight to work with.  Nothing phased them, no matter how often I changed my mind, and they were all without exception extremely helpful, totally reliable and always courteous.
