Highlights
"The team have been reliable, cleaned up after themselves and most of all completed the work to a perfect standard."
"Proper builders were absolutely incredible from start to finish. The slabs on our nursery driveway came up over Christmas and we were in a panic to get them fixed as it was dangerous. Proper builders gave us the most competitive quote out of many builders and the finished project is absolutely incredible. So friendly, amazing communication and the job exceeded our expectations. Our driveway looks absolutely amazing 🤩"
"Argjend and his team did an incredible work renovating our bathroom ! I can’t be more pleased with the work from his tiler , plumber , decorator etc! I have already booked Proper Builders for our single extension that we’re looking to start soon and we are very happy to continue work together"

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.
Want an extra legitimacy check?
