Highlights
"All works carried out to the highest standard, and kept upto date on every aspect."
"Great experience with Thames Build, Greg and his team were really punctual, courteous and tidy. The quality of the workmanship was great and Greg was really helpful when we had issues with our not so helpful building inspector. Greg kept us informed at all times and helped us keep everything to budget. I’d recommend Thames Build to others in an instant."
"I would highly recommend Thames Building. Greg and his team always kept us informed of next steps and explained everything to us. All the work carried out has been to a high quality. The team onsite are really conscientious, tidy up after themselves and park to avoid disturbing the neighbours etc. Greg is super friendly and professional, he has responded to all my questions quickly, dealt with any problems and always put my mind at ease."

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.
