Highlights
"We recently completed a major renovation project with Greve and Son and we could not be happier with the entire experience. As our first time undertaking significant building work, we were naturally a little nervous, but the team at Greve and Son made the process stress free from start to finish. Their professionalism was outstanding. No question was too much or too silly for them, and they patiently walked us through every stage, ensuring we felt comfortable and informed. The work itself was of the absolute highest standard, meticulous, precise, and flawlessly executed."
"We appointed Greve and Son as our preference was to have the Elm Court development of 9 town houses built by a local contractor. From the get-go Greve and Son were a pleasure to work with, transparent with their pricing and willing to be flexible to adapt specifications to bring the project in on budget. The quality and attention to detail throughout the construction was excellent and all their staff and sub-contractors took pride in their work and often added value in suggesting ways to improve the finishes."
"Having building work done can be stressful, but working with the right builders eliminates this. We "interviewed" several local building companies ahead of our building project and Greve and Sons impressed us the most. From the start were very professional, organised and it was evident that they know their stuff and are very passionate about what they do. The entire team were professional, conscientious and committed to the job. Their attention to detail was very impressive and we felt fully informed and kept up to date. Any queries we had were picked up straight away. Highly recommend."

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.
