Danny and his team were courteous, helpful and did a really good job. They worked with us to help achieve our goal, thought through problems and made appropriate suggestions. They were particularly good at finding matching materials such as reclaimed roof tiles, which was important to us as we wanted to preserve the character of the house. This was all done for a reasonable price, which they stuck to. They are very experienced, no nonsense and highly recommended.

Detailed reviews
Very pleased with the finished extension. Found Dan and the team to be experienced, offered plenty advice along the way. Workmanship was great, and received positive feedback from Building Control. Found pricing very reasonable for the effort and work required.
I would totally recommend Gibbons Building Contractors. They were reasonably priced, skilled and completely trustworthy. I had no concerns whatsoever leaving my house keys with them whilst I went to work. The work was to an excellent standard and although there were unexpected issues with the build, they always worked out a solution. We are very happy with our new home and so glad we chose Gibbons Building Contractors.

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.
Check the TrustMark registerNever 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.
