Highlights
"Robin & Tom did the most fantastic job for us. They removed an internal wall in our box room, and built out over the stairs. Professional from start to finish, Robin talked me through design options and in the end created the most amazing custom small double bed with bookcase in a space that hadn't previously been part of the room. The job was done quickly and efficiently, and I wouldnt hesitate to turn to Robin first for any future projects."
"Robin ROC carried out repairs to our front of property wall, also raised the existing pillars, the quality of work and the matching of new bricks and mortar to the original is perfect, excellent all round service from start to finish. We would highly recommend Robin ROC and would definitely use their services again!"
"The work involved rasing the roof over part of an existing loft conversion. I supplied all the materials including a substantial steel framework. ROC removed the existing tiles (which were to be reused), demolished the existing roof frame, installed the heavy steelwork, constructed the new walls and roof and retiled and trimmed all the new work. They worked very hard and very quickly - all this was completed in 2 weeks. They dealt with the inevitable snags efficiently and the work was finished to a very good standard. The building inspectorate raised no queries."

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.
