Highlights
"We are over the moon with what the Harringtons have achieved for us. They have transformed our home and the way we live in it. We had a large extension built for a new kitchen/family room and had the rest of the house updated and modernised at the same time, the attention to detail is amazing. We did consider moving but chose to revamp our current house and we are so glad we did. The whole experience was great and they handled everything so professionally, apparently having building work done is really stressful but that wasn't the case for us, everything was made easy to understand. So happy."
"I had an extension built by Harrington Builders, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The team was professional, efficient, and attentive to my needs. The quality of the work is outstanding, and the new space has transformed my home beautifully. I highly recommend Harrington Builders for any extension projects!"
"We first contacted Harringtons after some neighbours used them for a similar job and had a good experience with them. This was our first time have work done on such a large scale but everything was carefully planned and executed very well. They coordinated the project brilliantly and everything ran smoothly. We had a very large 2 storey side extension, knock through into the main house, lots of remodelling, a new kitchen, bathrooms, rewire, plumbing, under floor heating etc.. the finish is amazing! Stuart & Nick took care of everything for us to create our dream home. We highly recommend 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.
