It also involved the complete refurbishment of an existing property included large structural repairs and steel frame works.

Future works

In 2025 the Client approached us again, this time to build a 2-storey detached building which would include a Snooker room, bar and lounge and a second storey storage area.

Working with the Client and our Architect we have submitted a pre-planning application to the council.

If this is successful, we will go on to complete the design and submit a full planning application, with a view of starting works in Spring 2027.

What our clients say

From the moment we first met Ady, we knew he was the right person to manage our build. He listened carefully to what we wanted to achieve, understood every detail of our tender, and even suggested more efficient ways of doing things during his very first visit—ideas that we ultimately incorporated into our plans. He also provided the most thorough and transparent response to our tender document, which gave us immense confidence from the start.

During construction, Ady was on top of every single detail and kept us regularly updated. Because we were renovating and extending an older building, we fully expected to encounter unexpected challenges—and we did. However, what really impressed us was Ady’s pragmatic and proactive approach. Whenever an issue arose, he would present it to us alongside well-thought-out solutions, with everything lined up to keep us as close to the
original schedule as possible.

Another major advantage of working with Ady is his extensive network of trusted specialist partners.  Because they have worked together for many years, the entire process was seamless, significantly less stressful, and a
major factor in the project’s success.

We remain absolutely delighted with our new home and would highly recommend Ady to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled builder. We would definitely hire him again for our next project!
