    Replacement of original 1939 single glazed wooden framed window

    Our 87 year old upstairs wood framed window had got beyond DIY repairs so we called Ron in to see if it could be matched in UPVC. He was certain that it could. He was right. The scaffolding was erected before the window arrived and it took one day to replace the window. The following day the relevant parts were painted blue and some side tiles replaced or refastened. Very professional and pleasant people. Everything was left clean and tidy and the rubbish removed. We are very pleased with the new window which matches the original, including colour and external glazing bars. Many thanks Ron

    R Squibb Building Contractors - Great Reliable and Competent Company.

    R Squibb carried out three different areas of work at my property in September 2026. All three areas were completed to a Very High Standard and all three areas were left Very Clean and Tidy. The Workers are all very polite and helpful. This is the second lot of work that this company has completed at my property and I would strongly recommend them to anyone.

    A very happy customer

    I had Ron Squibb quote for and complete some repair work on my roof in several areas. After having quotes from a few other roofers he was the only one who gave straight answers no messing about with ifs and buts. And the end charge was exactly as quoted. Work was completed quickly, cleanly and efficiently. I'm a very happy customer.

    Garden conversion

    I recently had R Squibb builders take down my conservatory and replace it with garden walls and a new patio garden. I picked them because I'd seen the name over the years and their reviews were good. Im so glad I did, they did such a great job from start to finish and I am completely satisfied with the result. Great communication and coordination between the guys in their team. 10/10 from me........ many thanks. G
