Highlights
"EBF General Builders are amazing at what they do. Blerim and his team were polite and punctual with excellent work ethics. Blerim always gave his honest opinion about the works and made excellent recommendations when asked. He was happy to listen to concerns and adjust the works to our requirements. He always did his best and his work was always to an outstanding standard. He went out of his way to complete the works with minimal disruptions to our everyday life and was a pleasure to have around. I highly recommend his services and will not hesitate to hire him again for any other works."
"I can’t recommend this company highly enough! Blerim and his team are extremely professional, helpful and knowledgeable. They really went above and beyond to make sure everything was finished to a high standard and that we were happy. I have recommended to several friends as I know they won’t be disappointed!"
"Really good quality job, really good finish, I don't feel I need to worry when I book a job. Options well explained. In addition, I've found EBF responsive, fair, reliable, courteous, clear, transparent, efficient, timely, respectful and on top of all this, not messy. I completely understand some mess is reasonable for building work, but really appreciate this being kept to a minimum where possible. I can pay for labour and expertise, but kindness and consideration I often think is of one's own volition so feels worth naming as appreciated."

Smart checks
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.
