Highlights

"Glenn is very knowledgeable guided us through the extension/renovation process. The existing roof was removed from our bungalow to allow a new roof, stairs, 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms to be created on the new floor. Excellent communication together with a genuine care to do a good job throughout the project were keys reasons I would recommend Riverside Carpentry. The team also renovated downstairs including installation of a kitchen, shower room and flooring. Great work from reliable builders."

"Could not have asked for better. Quick availability, provided a quote more reasonable than most and did an outstanding job on our new wardrobe. Also friendly and attentive to all our needs and even threw in the handles that we hadn't accounted for at no extra charge. Highly recommended."

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.
