Excellent Company
I used Southdowns to repair my mother-in-law’s garden wall, a small job but one they were happy to fit in. Mitch and his team did a fantastic job. They were prompt on arrival, polite and tidied up completely when the job was done. The wall looks great and my mother-in-law said her wall looked “well smart”. Southdowns Builders made an 86yr old lady very happy, so a big thank you to them all! Excellent service and I’d highly recommend them.Verified reviewerJob location: PO910 Builder

Reliable and respectful local builders
We worked with Mitch and the South Downs Builders team for over a year on a major home refurb, including a kitchen extension, new roof, dormers, bathrooms and significant internal alterations. Mitch is a straight-talking and reliable Project Manager who communicates well, solves problems quickly and keeps projects on track and within budget. The whole team takes real pride in their work, and the quality of workmanship has been excellent throughout. Honest, professional and highly recommended - we will be using them again for future works.Verified reviewerJob location: GU3310 Extensions / Conversions

Extension for new Kitchen, converting integrated garage into snug/bedroom and other internal work.
Southdown Builders recently completed an extensive renovation and extension of our 100+ year-old cottage. The work included a rear extension creating a large open-plan kitchen/diner, converting the garage into a bedroom/snug, a new downstairs WC and storage room, plus reconfiguring the hallway and entrance. Unexpected challenges arose. During excavation, a previously unknown 4–5 metre well was discovered beneath the planned foundations. Southdown responded immediately, arranging a structural engineer, developing a solution and securing Building Control approval. Remedial work began within 48 hours, avoiding significant delays. They also efficiently located drainage and sewer connections hidden by the property's history as a barn conversion. The finished project exceeded our expectations. Southdown remained within budget apart from the unavoidable well-related work. The team were professional, hardworking and excellent communicators. We were kept informed throughout and always felt the project was in capable hands. We are extremely pleased with the quality of the work and service. We are already discussing future projects with Southdown and would not hesitate to recommend them.Verified reviewerJob location: GU31ROwain D10 General Building
