The Porter & Son team spent 2 months working on our kitchen and dining room extension and remodelling. They did exactly what they said they would, on time and on cost. Helpful, clean, accommodating and polite, combined with actually being a skilful and experienced building team makes Porter & Son somewhat a dream! I very much liked the realism and professionalism of the entire team, all aspects of the job were approached with the correct tools, people and skills - making sure each was completed successfully. I'm very pleased with the work they did on my house whilst I was living here still. I'd more than recommend them and would instantly consider them for any future work.
I couldn't have been happier. Punctual, tidy and everything completed to a high standard. Happily recommend to anyone else.
They worked excellently in very hot weather.
Brilliant. Could not fault anything.
Massive kitchen and utility reconstruction and delivered brilliantly and on budget

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.
