Highlights
"We are delighted with our new kitchen. Oliver and his team are true professionals and did a brilliant job of fitting it. They were friendly, obliging and helpful - nothing was too much trouble for them - and the finished job is exactly what we wanted. We would highly recommend them."
"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Builder —Reliable, Honest & Highly Skilled! We first got Oliver’s details from an estate agent for a house we didn’t end up buying and we are so glad we kept his number. When we moved into our new place, Oliver and his team transformed it. They sealed and painted a 3rd floor timber window (with scaffolding), removed the old kitchen, knocked through to create an open-plan space, installed a new kitchen, laid flooring, moved radiators, plastered ceilings, filled old doors, and fitted new lights From day one, Oliver and Chris arrived at 8am sharp and worked until 5:30pm, Monday to Saturday. They quoted 3.5 weeks and finished exactly on time — something friends said was impossible, yet the quality is fantastic. Any surprises were explained clearly and handled quickly. Communication was great, with a WhatsApp group for updates. Oliver, Chris, Basi and Dmitry were tidy, polite and a pleasure to have around. Truly reliable, skilled and trustworthy. Highly recommend!"
"Oliver and Chris built a shower room, renovated the bathroom and kitchen and decorated the hall, stairs and landing. This took about six weeks. During this time they were punctual, courteous and efficient. They kept us informed about progress and when third parties were coming on site. They were both extremely hard working and we will be using them again in future."

Oliver turned our garage into a garden office space. The price was very good, he did an excellent job and it was really great working with him. He really cares about doing the work to the highest quality, and it really shows in the end result as you’ll see in the images above. He throws in extra things for free and is very generous with his time, so you always feel that he cares about the job. I couldn’t recommend him more highly.
Being new to the area we didn’t know where to start in our search for a company to carry out varied electrical, plumbing and repointing renovations in the very small bungalow we had just moved into. Hence looking on Trustatrader. So glad we did. Decided on Oliver Building Services because of their reviews. Oliver and Chris have worked incredibly hard and we are delighted by the results. Friendly, professional, knowledgeable, hardworking and willing to fit in with our occasional change of plans, nothing was too much trouble. We won’t hesitate to call on Oliver again when we need a builder who has all the trades we might need. We had to wait several weeks for him to start work as he is in demand - of course . We wouldn’t have wanted a company which wasn’t in demand!
Oliver did an amazing job redoing our en-suite and main bathroom. He was very efficient, arrived at 8am on the dot every morning and achieved so much each day. I am heavily pregnant and he made the whole thing stress free. He also had a nice idea of how to change the layout of our corridor and knocked down the wall to improve the space. Him and his team did an amazing job painting all our bedrooms too. I highly recommend Oliver’s building services!
Fantastic Builder – Highly Recommend! Once again, Oliver has done an amazing job! This isn’t the first time I’ve used his services, and just like before, his work was top-notch, well-priced, and completed with a friendly, professional attitude. No matter the project, he always delivers excellent quality, stays on budget, and makes the whole process stress-free. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled, and personable builder. Thanks again for another great experience—see you on the next project! ★★★★★
Olivert did a good job on full house renovation. He was very efficient and quick to finish all the tasks. We can move in the house without waiting long.
I would like to put on record how pleased I am with the refurbishment of my bathroom, and for everyone's hard work and co-operation in handling changes as the work progressed. The finished result certainly has a "wow" factor, and the fitting of bedroom doors to match the new bathroom door has improved the overall appearance of the hall as well.
Oliver and Chris did great work in our kitchen replacing the floor and the worktops. I'm really happy with the work, they amazingly did it all in two days and I'm really happy with it.
They were punctual starting at 8am every morning and working through until 5pm. I had to change my original plan and Oliver was able to deal with this without any problems. I had a seperate toilet and bathroom knocked into one big bathroom. This was to make the bathroom and shower accessible for my elderly disabled mother. The whole room was tiled and a lage shower installed. Oliver went the extra mile and sourced a new modern extractor window fan that replaced the old one which meant I didn't need to replace the glass in the window. Oliver fitted a new radiator and a wall heater so that Mum is cosy and warm when using the bathroom. The bathroom is amazing and the old redundant toilet door space is now a new wall with a big mirror. I definitely recommend Oliver and he will be my go to builder in the future.
Oliver has a lot of knowledge about the jobs you are asking about he is very polite and his workforce always work to a great standard and always clean up when done for the day Oliver also goes overboard to help and making sure you get exactly the quality job you expect great builder very reliable

Oliver was very polite always on time and worked long days he has amazing customer service and will go out of his way to help...his team of plumbers electrician and tilers are all good workers nothing was to much for them . I fully recommend Oliver and the team and will definitely use them again well done and thank you all your work is amazing
We took a chance on Oliver and his team in our first foray into renovating major parts of our home. Oliver and team reworked the kitchen, shower room from top to bottom, joinery under the stairs, flooring, including tiling the porch, laminate flooring hallway to the kitchen, took one wall down and put another one up; all under just one month. Their standard of work is extremely high, they were professional and efficient in every aspect of the job. Anything that needed to be changed from the original plan, Oliver communicated clearly and problem solved quickly. He listened and delivered on all our creative ideas and brought them to life beautifully. Both Oliver and Kris showed great workmanship in every part of our home they worked on. It's evident in the finishing that they are experienced and work very hard. I can't recommend them enough!
Oliver and his team were very professional. Easy guys to deal with. Very clean and tidy workers, very efficient and keen to complete on time meeting agreed deadline. Always went the extra mile. They were a pleasure to have in the house, respectful of our daily routine. Highly recommend these guys, thank you again!
I found Oliver on Trust a Trader and decided to call him regarding my new kitchen to see if he could help me with the mess my last fitter left me in. After being 9 long weeks without a kitchen, Oliver and Kris came to my rescue and completed my kitchen in 5 days. Communication was excellent they explained everything, they were always on time , very tidy and all in all excellent workers. I never used them before but so glad i did !! Im so happy to eventually have a new kitchen. I would highly recommend Oliver and his team and will definitely be using them again 👍👍
Oliver and team have been working on a big refurbishment project in our kitchen, living room and conservatory. They have been excellent throughout this project & we really appreciate their work. They are really friendly & we consider them to be very trustworthy. Oliver has always been prompt & communicated timings clearly & regularly, which has made it quite easy to manage our own time. He has been really responsive. He has also been practical, finding solutions to the unexpected problems that inevitably come up in a refurbishment. They have always kept the quality of the end product in mind as well. They have fitted our kitchen to a high quality (that was the Wren worktop fitter’s view, not just ours), and have given us advice on what would be best in terms of design for the finished kitchen/living area. Finally, he has been very transparent and fair with quotes and budgets. We’d definitely recommend Oliver, and will be using him for the rest our house works in future.
Oliver and his team did a great job on my house refurbishment to the standard beyond my expectations! I had new boiler and radiators installed, fitted new kitchen and bathroom. All finished to top standard efficiently and tidily. Oliver guided me through the process professionally. I would definitely recommend him and his team.
Already had my onsuite bathroom finished by Oliver he did such an amazing job had him install the a new second bathroom! Again what an amazing job so happy with finishing and hard work completed by Oliver and his team . Thank you so much 🥳
Will use this company again.
