Highlights
"We had a two storey extension completed with PDM, including a new kitchen, bathroom and WC and we are extremely happy with their work throughout and with the end result. This was the first building works we've had done on our house and so we had lots of questions and Paul was always happy to help, answer our questions and see us through each step. The team were friendly and professional and all the work was completed to a high standard. The team worked around our family and were always tidy and considerate. We're really glad we went with PDM and would definitely recommend them!"
"Honest reliable professional quality work. I would not hesitate to recommend this company"
"Paul turned up ahead of schedule to start work on converting a tired old extension into a fit for purpose family bathroom. The project ran smoothly and to time. As well as doing much of the work himself, he was on site regularly to check on progress. All of his team were fantastic (Zac it particular). Arrived on site early each morning, and communicated well if there were to be any change in schedule. Disruption in the house was kept to a minimum. All tradespeople that came were polite and respectful. This was important as we have a young family. Overall, brilliant job!"

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.
