SallyTrustATrader5.0 rating

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent Bathroom Refurbishment – Highly Recommended! We had our bathroom fully refurbished and couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, Master Builder was professional, reliable, and incredibly skilled. He took the time to listen to our ideas, offered helpful suggestions, and kept us informed throughout the entire process. The workmanship is of the highest standard – from the tiling and plumbing to the finishing touches, every detail has been completed with care and precision. The project was completed on time and within budget, and the site was left clean and tidy each day. It’s rare to find tradespeople who combine such professionalism with genuine care for the work they do. We’re absolutely thrilled with our new bathroom and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again or recommend them to anyone considering home improvement work. A truly top-quality service!"

"Great builder always early and late to finish worked extremely hard. If any issues he sorted out and I trust him with everything now as my house is now rented. He fitted in the wren kitchen from flat pack a few hiccups but he managed it well. He is someone I would know won’t rip me off and is always honest with me with prices labour and materials. I definitely recommend him don’t miss out on a trustworthy builder."

I can’t recommend Istvan and his team at Master Builders highly enough. From start to finish they were amazing — always on time, professional, and genuinely trustworthy. At one point, I had ordered tiles that turned out to be poor quality. Instead of simply fitting them and moving on, Istvan was honest and advised against using them because he could already see they were chipping easily. He suggested changing them, and I’m so glad I listened — it made a huge difference to the final result. What really stood out was how approachable he was. Speaking to Istvan never felt like dealing with a typical builder; it felt like speaking to a friend who genuinely cared about getting the job right, not just getting it done. I will 100% be recommending Master Builders to others, and Istvan will be doing all of my future projects from now on.

Mastern Builder recently completed a full renovation for us, and the results speak for themselves. Our old kitchen and bathroom have been transformed into stylish, well-designed spaces. The workmanship was impressive, and the team worked efficiently while respecting our home. Everything was completed within the agreed timeframe, and the final result has exceeded our expectations.

Master Builder Luton did an excellent job on our kitchen renovation and bathroom renovation, along with other refurbishment work across the house. Istvan took time to understand our requirements and delivered exactly what we wanted. The quality of workmanship is impressive, and everything…

We chose Masterbuilder for a complete renovation of our home, including a new kitchen and bathroom, and the experience was excellent. The team was organised, dependable, and kept us informed at every stage. The kitchen turned out exactly as planned, with a clean, modern finish and great usability. The bathroom has completely changed the feel of the space. We’re extremely pleased with the outcome and would confidently recommend their services.

Istvan built a new porch for us and we’re very pleased with the result. From the start, he was easy to deal with and took the time to understand what we wanted. The work was carried out to a high standard, with good attention to detail, and the porch fits in perfectly with the rest of the house. Everything was kept tidy during the job, and the area was left clean once the work was completed, which we really appreciated. Communication throughout was clear and reliable, and we always knew what was happening and when. We were so happy with the finished porch that we’ve since asked Istvan to carry out further work for us. That alone says a lot about our confidence in him. We would have no hesitation in recommending Istvan to others looking for quality workmanship and a reliable service.

Master Builder carried out a full refurbishment of our property, and we are extremely satisfied with the outcome. Istvan was reliable, well organised, and kept us updated at every stage of the project. The workmanship was excellent, particularly on the larger elements of the build. It is clear that they specialise in full house refurbishments, and we would not hesitate to use them again.

We trusted Master Builder with a full house renovation, including major work on the kitchen and bathroom, and we’re very glad we did. Communication was clear throughout, and the team was friendly and professional. The new kitchen is both practical and visually appealing, and the bathroom now feels like a calm, well-finished space. The attention to detail and overall quality of work were excellent, and we’d happily 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.
