"He did an amazing job extension on my Daughters house that we had him to come and do our extension. He's a really nice guy, very trustworthy and reliable. He did a wonderful job - planned it and gave really great advice. He's currently using him again to do another job. He's reasonably priced - so impressed! ."

Nick has done several projects for us from a full attic conversion to the most recent installation of 2 media walls. Re routing the kitchen cupboards and knocking through to make a big family room. Always clean work. No obstacle is an issue and always happy to help with ideas and solutions. Nick is very skilled and respects the homes of people he works in, this quality can’t be underestimated.

Nick & Team were a dream team ! They reconfigured awkward spaces & helped me to create a space that works brilliantly & looks fantastic 3 years on. The construction, finishing & detailing was spot on and they really listened & engaged with what I wanted. The whole flat was striped back & put back together. I really enjoyed the whole experience & I’ve recommended Nick to friends who’ve are also Designers & they have also been really happy with the results !

A super builder. The work is totally satisfactory. We had guests coming and they worked over the weekend to fix a ceiling that had fallen down. The pricing is very fair. They put cloths on the floor to protect it and clean up after. I don't give an "excellent" but I would say their work was very good, verging on the exceptional.

I am in the process of purchasing my first home, and needed to get an idea of costs for work that might need to be done. I called Nick and he spent 15 mins talking me through potential costs so I could have an indication and be more comfortable and it was highly useful! If I am successful I hope I am able to work with him.

Nicolae Dragan came round promptly, listened well and provided a price quickly. They were able to start quickly and were impressive from day 1. Both he and Ciprian were punctual, hard-working, exceptionally tidy and provided a quality finish throughout. They refurbished our main bathroom (including all plumbing, tiling, cornices, electrics etc.) and 2 of our bedrooms (plastering, new floors, cupboards, shelves, decorations etc.). They also installed a wood-burning stove for us and were accommodating when the plans needed to change along the way. They're also extremely friendly and have restored our faith in the building trade in general. I will be using them again and you should try them too!

Nicolas repaired structural damage in my hall then stripped the hall and decorated it from top to o bottom. This was done efficiently and with minimum mess even though it was the main area of the house!

Nicolae lifted the joists and replaced the lintel under my porch. He was very efficient, trustworthy and reliable. I would use him in the future.

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.
