Highlights
“I contacted Bower Design and Build for some building work I wanted doing. They replied promptly and after discussing what was needed we agreed for the work to be done. The work was done to a high standard and they consulted with me at every stage whilst the work was in progress. At all times they were professional and courteous in their approach. They were also very considerate and tidy in everything they did. I booked them to do another piece of work for me and the same comments apply. I was really impressed with the work they did and have no hesitation in recommending them.”
“Excellent work replacing guttering and fixing my roof. The workers were very tidy and professional.”
“I recently had the pleasure of working with Rob and his team, who transformed a wasted storage area in my home into a beautifully finished downstairs toilet. The entire project was handled with professionalism, care, and impressive attention to detail. Rob communicated clearly throughout and delivered the work exactly as promised. The craftsmanship, from the plumbing to the tiling and final fittings, was outstanding. The space is now stylish, practical, and finished to a very high standard. I’m absolutely delighted with the result and would happily recommend Rob and his team to anyone looking”

Really happy with our new kitchen
Reliable and easy to work with. Team did excellent work
Reboarding of bedroom ceiling, plastering walls & ceiling & painting. Rob & his team were punctual, polite & hard working. Rob was available to call when I had questions & kept me updated on the work. Happy with the work carried out & would use again in the future. Thank you!
We recently had our shower completely replaced and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the results. From the initial quote through to completion, the whole process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. The price was very fair and transparent, with everything clearly explained upfront We received a detailed breakdown before the work started, which gave us real confidence that we were dealing with someone honest and experienced. The workmanship itself is excellent. The new shower looks fantastic and has completely transformed the bathroom. The tiling, sealing, and finishing are all done to a very high standard, and you can tell real care was taken with the details . We’ll definitely be using them again in the future.

Bower Design and Build reached out and provided a good quote in just a matter of minutes. Attended on time and got the job done swiftly and professionally, left no mess. Very friendly service. I would recommend them.
Had AB build plaster my front room and dinning room they have completely transformed both rooms the plastering is exceptional. Very polite very clean and tidy will be getting the guys back to plaster upstairs bedrooms.
I contacted Rob regarding some damp rot in joists. There was very limited access which made it a difficult job, and I needed the work completed within a time frame. Rob came straight round and devised a solution. Two days later his team arrived and completed the work. They were polite, friendly and very tidy. A secondary issue was revealed by the work. Rob resolved this with two follow up visits which he did not charge me for. Rob and his team are professional and honest. I am very pleased to recommend Bower Design and Build.

Very helpful, great standard of work and would recommend.
From the moment I contacted Ryan he was honest. His quote was exceptionally reasonable. His workmanship and quality in my property was fantastic. I have already recommended to friends and family.
Although the job changed slightly, they were flexible and still able to complete everything without any issues. They were very friendly, professional, and easy to deal with throughout. The work was completed promptly, everything was left clean and tidy, and the service was reliable from start to finish. Prices were very reasonable for the quality of work delivered. They were honest and explained the works in great detail as it transpired that i also required damp proofing which they completed again to an amazing standard. I honestly could not recommend them enough.

Bower Design & Build did an excellent job in fitting glass panels and decorating our staircase, together with making and installing new cupboard doors. Rob's professionalism and attention to detail are second to none. He's honest, hard working, punctual, tidy and always on hand for practical design ideas and advice. We have used Rob numerous times to slowly renovate our home, and wouldn't dream of using another company as we have found the best. Would highly recommend Bower Design & Build for anyone looking for professionalism and a quality finish.
