The work was finished to a very high standard using good quality materials. I chose Opus as, when Richard came to quote , he really seemed to know what he was talking about. I had confidence in him. The guys completing the work were diligent, polite, respectful of my property, trustworthy, I left them unattended a couple of times with no problem. They kept me informed as the work progressed and any snagging items were completed straight away. I added a couple of items and these were completely efficiently and to the agreed cost. Would very highly recommend Richard and his team. V pleased

This is the second time I’ve employed Rich and Andy and they where as good as ever. They took time to explain the job and checked details with me at every stage. The price was very fair and the quality of finish excellent. The job was completed to time and Opus even led the conversation on remedying any possible snags. Snagging wasn’t required but how refreshing anyway! Ill definitely be using them again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

Opus where professional from the start, turning the quote round very quickly and very competitively priced. The team where well briefed and skilled. The communication during the job was brilliant. Both Andy and Richard have great deal of knowledge between them and it shows with how the job was completed and standard of work. I’ll be using them again and would recommend without hesitation.

So pleased I called Opus, from the start found Opus very professional in turning the quote round very quickly and very competitively priced. Turned up on time every day and very well organised with morning meeting with all trades on site. There quality of work is of a very high standard and always kept me informed of any issues or changes. Both Andy and Richard have great deal of knowledge between them and it shows with how the job was completed and standard of work. House keep and storage of materials was also brilliant dust sheets down were needed and at the end of each day massive clean up

We can not speak highly enough of this company. We were given a price at the time of agreeing the work, and given the size of the job, the price was what we paid. We had constant feed back on the progress(we live 200 miles from the flat) and had very good advice on what work needed to be done. The work completed is to a very high standard, and we would not hesitate to use Opus (South East) again and would certainly recommend them to anyone who wants a professional job done, but not at an exorbitant price. Trustworthy company, who do a great job.

Richard and his team were reliable, professional and friendly. He kept me informed on progress and his attitude throughout was positive and "can-do". I liked his openness, e.G we knew where all the equipment was coming from and the cost. He stood by his estimates. Most importantly of all, we are very happy with the standard of the work, the overall finish and attention to detail. We have already recommended Opus to others and would certainly use them again.

My hall was re-plastered and new down lights fitted. Hall decorated and all mess cleared up and taken away. Richard and his men made sure everything ran smoothly and the work was finished on time and at the price stated. The workmen were very nice and always cheerful. I am a pensioner and would recommend this company to young and old, in my opinion you couldn't get better. Thank you all.

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.
Good to know
