    Fitting a custom door frame and gate built for my garden storage area

    Posted 22 November 2024

    I recently had a custom door frame and gate built for my garden storage area by Jonah from Varela Properties, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. The craftsmanship is top-notch, and the gate blends perfectly with my garden. Communication throughout the process was excellent, with Jonah offering great advice and ensuring everything was exactly as I wanted. The job was completed on time, with no mess left behind. I’m very happy with the outcome and would definitely recommend Varela Properties for any work. Professional, reliable, and highly skilled!

    3 bedroom house refurbishment

    Posted 18 July 2024

    Almost never on site, he kept on with failed promises of getting things done in a timely fashion. I called him out severally to express my dissatisfaction but there was no improvement, only excuses. He finally abandoned my job and refused to take my calls or respond to my messages leaving me high and dry. He kept telling that his team was ill, how can an 8 man team be ill for over 2 weeks? I have had to look for other builders to complete the job, they have all complained greatly about how poor his work is. He his definitely a gardener not a builder. DISSAPOINTING

    Response from Varela Properties Ltd

    We noticed asbestos warning signs and asked the client if asbestos was present. They assured us it wasn’t with a surveyors sign off. We got in a private asbestos specialist who took samples which were all positive. We prioritise our workforces safety.

    Concrete base for a shed

    Posted 15 June 2024

    Jonah and his team excavated, prepared and laid a large concrete base for a shed. I'm very happy with the work they did. All my requirements were fulfilled and Jonah kept me informed regularly about progress and next steps. A good team, courteous at all times so I would highly recommend for future work.

    Multiple Projects

    Posted 13 June 2024

    My experience with Varela Properties is outstanding and I can’t recommend them enough. I have used them for many projects over the last year both personal and business. I first used VP for the construction of our paddock fencing. Jonah and the boys handled everything brilliantly, leaving us with nothing to worry about. VP also constructed our outhouse with a great attention to detail and finishing. They have recently laid new safety flooring throughout our Care Homes to meet compliance and high safety standards. Currently designing an extension with VP and we are excited to work with themagain

    Groundwork’s for swimspa

    Posted 13 June 2024

    Jonah stepped in to help us out when a previous builder let us down. Jonah and his team were very organised and carried out the work exactly how we asked keeping us informed along the way. It was completed on schedule and left tidy and Jonah was polite and helpful. Would recommend.
