Highlights
"I am so pleased I chose HG Framework to hang 4 internal doors. The finish of the job was fantastic and the punctuality and professionalism were spot on. They left our house clean and tidy and were polite and courteous at all times. Even their van was smart and clean! I can not recommend Josh and Ryan enough. I would absolutely use them again without hesitation. A quality service to the highest standard."
"Josh was punctual, he finish the work very quickly, and he done properly the work.I recommend Josh, he is reliable."
Detailed reviews
Showing the 3 reviews we hold full text for. The 43 headline total is the review volume reported across Chingford Home Improvements Ltd’s public review sources.
Josh and Stuart Harrington-Gill are fraudsters! No expertise in building - some basic carpentry. Advertising is staged, website reviews are fake. Took money, damaged home & left it filthy, work not compliant with Building Regs. Insurance details supplied prior are not valid, attempting to voluntarily strike off company register - also trading in several other names with several other Ltd companies with overdue accounts! josh uses money paid to Ltd company to pay personal debts - IVA and wont complete work, remedy damages or engage after they’ve been paid - you’d be mad to use them!

Before you hire a builder
Never pay a large deposit up front — agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow — both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
