Straightforward Quote
Had a quote for K Rend and the chap who came out was really helpful. He explained what would be involved, answered everything we asked and didn’t try to oversell it. The quote was clear and came through quickly.Verified reviewerJob location: TW15Response from Home Building & Surveying Company

Friendly, Professional and Thorough
Really pleased with the damp survey. The surveyor was friendly, knowledgeable and explained everything clearly without any pressure. Even the dog approved of him, which is usually a very good sign! Would happily recommend.Verified reviewerJob location: NW10Response from Home Building & Surveying Company

Heatwave Heroes! ☀️
We recently completed the rendering on our home during one of the hottest spells of the year, and the lads never stopped. They worked incredibly hard in tough conditions, stayed professional throughout, and the quality of the finish is excellent. They were friendly, respectful, kept everything tidy, and clearly took pride in their work. A real credit to the company. Highly recommended.Verified reviewerJob location: SS6Response from Home Building & Surveying Company
Thanks Sean, really appreciate the great review. The lads will be pleased to read this, especially after working through that heat. Glad you’re happy with the rendering and the finish. Thanks again for choosing us and for the recommendation.

Posted 27 June
Great job, which exceeded expectations with no hidden extras
Excellent service and conscientious workers, both on site and at head office. We were kept fully informed every step of the way, the work exceeded our expectations. Jack and Josh turned up when they said they would, talked through the work at every stage and were friendly/helpful. The room was left very tidy and clean and all rubbish was collected in a timely fashion and cleared totally. The contact with head office was also really easy, always someone on the end of the line and Laura and Kate were very helpful and friendly. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company and use againVerified reviewerJob location: GL19RKathy OResponse from Home Building & Surveying Company

It’s great to hear you felt kept informed throughout and that the team left everything clean and tidy. Thanks again for taking the time to leave such a lovely review.
