Highlights

"Absolutely thrilled with all the work done by Phil @ Renov8ions! From first meeting to the job finishing some 3 months later, his professionalism and attention to detail shone through. The project contained some structural work, some refits and a lot of odd jobs in an old house where nothing is straightforward. Any problems that were discovered from previous work was carefully thought through to solution and clearly explained and then delivered to a high standard. Top bloke too! Highly recommend Phil’s services to anyone looking for quality and reliability. 🌟"

"We required a structural wall to be built the full length of our property to retain our neighbour's land. Phil and his team at Renov8tions were very knowledgeable and skilled in every aspect of the works. They were always punctual and courteous to both us and our neighbours. Their due diligence, communication, tidiness and quality of work was of an exceptionally high standard. We are extremely happy with the finished project and cannot recommend them highly enough."

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.
