Surrey General Builders recently completed an incredible loft conversion for our home in Claygate. Not only that, Dean personally supervised and project managed a stunning 1,000 square foot rear extension, which features a bespoke designed kitchen by Thomas James. The entire project was delivered under the expert guidance of Dean and Luan from Surrey General Builders, whose attention to detail and professionalism were outstanding. First class company. Lee Pendleton They also oversaw a full landscape garden renovation, ensuring the entire property flowed beautifully from inside to out.

All installed to a very high standard. Very helpful on various details and lack of some of the kitchen bits.
We would highly recommend Surrey Builders. The quote we received was very competitive - with everything itemised, so there were no hidden costs. Both Luan and Dean were easy to work, and very helpful when we needed to make amendments to our build. The building work was done to a high standard and we were very happy with the finish. There was very little snagging at the end of the job which we were very happy with. We will be using them again in the future for our first floor extension.

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.
