Highlights
"I am so pleased I found J.P. (Manor Building) to do the work on my house. I had read all the reviews and can honestly say I agree with all of them. He worked so tidally, explained at each stage of repairing my bay where replacement windows had been put in several years ago. My bathroom looks a treat after he installed a new bath. I most definitely would recommend him and would not hesitate to use him again. His rates are extremely competitive too."
"JP has now completed 3 projects for me. A garage conversion into a self contained unit, remodelling in the main house, new bathroom, kitchen and structural work and lastly building a new door way between main house and conversion. JP is always extremely professional, the work is too a very high standard, the team always clean and tidy after themselves. I think the fact that I have continued to use the company for all my building projects speaks for itself. I would highly recommend this company."
"JP has recently completed various works at our property in Rye to include carpentry, installing new bathrooms, plumbing, installation of Velux windows, tiling, plastering and erecting stud walls. Everything has been completed really well and we are extremely pleased with the work. JP himself is a friendly, courteous and professional builder and I highly recommend him."

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.
