What customers say
Highlights
"Building work to create a new kitchen diner from two separate rooms plus utility area and downstairs toilet. New bathroom fitted upstairs. Internal decorations, new doors and stair banister fitted. External ground works to create new patio, retaining walls and hard landscaping. The Defined Build team worked to a high standard and we are delighted with the work. The site was kept tidy and well organised. We were kept informed of progress at all times and different options were discussed where necessary. The team was respectful to our neighbours and polite and friendly at all times."
"We had a new kitchen installed which included units, worktops, appliances and flooring. Defined Builds Limited were professional, reliable, tidy, provided a high standard of workmanship and finished the work on time by an experienced team."
"Our works involved a rear and side extension, re-work of the entire ground floor, along with a re-do of our first floor bathroom and decorating some bedrooms. From the initial chats we had with James from Defined Builds, we knew he was our preferred choice. He is upfront and honest from the get go which was a big selling point for us. This honesty was clear throughout the house works - James was always able to give an honest opinion and advise us on inevitable obstacles we came across throughout the process, and always gave us the best advice financially without compromising on quality. One thing you can be certain with Defined Builds is the high quality of their work - the entire team are absolute perfectionists and have an eye for detail which means you never have to point an issue out to them. We have never had to fault their work which is a testament to the quality of their work (especially as my dad always looked into the detail on every aspect at every stage). James also spent a significant amount of time discussing the works with us to keep us in the loop and address any worries we had, even on aspects that were out of his scope of work (e.g. we had the kitchen fitted by another supplier, but he spent time discussing the logistics and process of this with us). The team are a friendly bunch who make the effort to be friendly with our neighbours which meant we had no issues or complaints. They also tidied up after themselves at the end of each day so the house was always tidy. James is also very reasonable and fair, as well as honest with the time the team have spent on certain additional work we had them do. The more we saw the high quality of their work, the more we ended up asking them to do. Once the works were completed, we have been extremely happy with our decision to go with Defined Builds as everything has been done to a high quality and we know it is rare to not have a single complaint on the final outcome. If quality and personable touch is what you"

We had a really great experience working with James to refit our kitchen. James is generous with his time and during the consultation phase gave us lots of considered suggestions on how to maximise and improve our working space. James has great attention to detail and when anything wasn't quite right was quick to respond and rectify it. He kept us up to date with how the work was progressing, and I also felt that James priced the project fairly. I would definitely recommend James to anyone considering a home-renovation project.
I highly recommend James and the Defined Builds team. They completed extensive outdoor work for us, including garden landscaping and patio creation at the back and elegant brick paving at the front. James and his team have excellent knowledge and experience and the quality of their work has been consistently high. James was great at listening to our ideas and finding ways to make them work. His advice was always invaluable and took into account both practicality and aesthetics. James always kept us up to date on progress and next steps. We are extremely happy with the end result.
Thank you James and team- Really happy with are kitchen. Was a really difficult install however made to look easy by a great team.
