Highlights
“I've never had any work done before on a property and didn't really know how to go about it. Jimi & Leli from Rec Builders helped with the process which I'm massively grateful as other companies weren't willing too. The work was carried out to an excellent standard and we are so pleased with the new part to our home!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had our full 3-bedroom house refurbished by Rec Builders LTD, and the results are fantastic! The team did everything — new flooring, skirting, plastering, and two new bathrooms — all completed to a really high standard. Everyone was professional, reliable, and easy to deal with throughout the whole process. They kept everything tidy, stuck to the schedule, and the attention to detail shows in every room. We’re so pleased with the transformation and would definitely recommend Rec Builders LTD to anyone looking for a trustworthy and skilled team.”

Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.

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.
