Hamiltons Boutique Hotel.co.uk has just had a complete refurbishment from top to toe and I am glad we have had the pleasure of working with Justin and his team at JLS Building Services. I would like to thank them all for the long hours and hard work they have put into the hotel, to get us up and running. I would gladly recommend you to everyone. You're an asset to Southend!!

Turned up on time, showed me the problem and explained what had been done wrong and what he was going to do to fix it. No messing about drinking tea, worked hard and came in on time and on budget. Very impressed and worth recommending to others.

Justin and his team were polite and helpful at all times. No job was was a problem for them. After my lounge ceiling collapsed, I needed reassurance and it repaired at a reasonable cost. I am pleased with their service and finished work. Now I am just waiting for a quote for the next job they're doing for me!

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.
