He was really friendly and polite, and was incredibly careful with all the small details to ensure he finished every room perfectly. It's a bit like living in a totally different (and far more stylish) flat now they have finished. If we ever move house and need builders, I will definitely get them involved again. **Although this is their first yelp review, they have loooads of other good reviews on google+, so if you don't believe me, have a look: https://plus.google.com/+TiptopbuildersLtdUkservice/about

Don't trust! Absolutely awful. Where to start?…read more How about Surrey Lofts Group Ltd went into liquidation on 26 September 2022 so our 10 year guarantee is void. However they are trading as a "new" company called Surrey Lofts Walton Ltd. A new company that was incorporated on 15 May 2020. They have a new director who was appointed on 7 Sept 2022 when their previous director, Mark Grimshaw, resigned. He was also the director of Surrey Lofts Group Ltd. Suspicious! Why would I need my guarantee? Good question - the work was only completed in Feb 2020. Well, my roof is leaking. I sought advice from an independent roofer and he said there's a section where the loft meets the chimney that hadn't been sealed properly. There's also a 2 sq. metre area that's like sponge. His professional assessment was the leak would have been occurring since the work was completed, or even worse, because Surrey Lofts didn't use the correct materials. Unprofessional! This "new company that was set up 2 years ago uses the same website and phone umber as the previous company. The lady who was the initial admin contact is still working there. And their website isn't even updated to portray a new business. It boasts how they have been a family run company of over 22 years set up by Mark Grimshaw. Some pages say over 25 years. Again, suspicious seeing as it's supposedly a new company. I wish this situation was the first problem I had with the company and the work they carried out, Unfortunately, it's not. I already had to get them to fix the staircase they installed going into the loft as it had come away. This could have resulted in a serious accident to a member of my family. Luckily it didn't and I managed to get that sorted before they liquidated one company and opened up as a new one that had already been set up 2 years earlier. Really bad, eh? Surely the work went smoothly when they were installing the loft? Nope. Sadly not. The completion of the original job dragged on and on and on - with one of their contractors continually not turning up when he said he would for a variety of reasons including his car breaking down (twice) and him being in court for assault. (Yes he told me that when he finally turned up.) This matter was only sorted when I told the Project Manager that I would be getting someone else to finish the work and deducting the cost of this from any monies owed to Surrey Lofts. So was the Project Manager pretty good? Nope. He was practically non-existent on the job - he came out once to chat us through the work at the start of the job and set up a WhatsApp chat for communication. The only other times we saw him was when big problems arose and he had to come out to check things out for himself. There were hardly any check ins to make sure the work was progressing on time. No weekly or even monthly updates unless requested. Surely they were the only issues? Nope. Again, unfortunately not. Here are a few of the other issues we encountered: - Our son's brand new bed was broken because another one of their contractors left his toolboxes on it and the electricians Surrey Lofts appointed were standing on the bed to fix the light fittings. - We were paying close to 10 grand for them to fit a new bathroom - it needed to be reconfigured as the position of the toilet and bath were changing. This meant a new pipe needed to be fitted from the toilet, running alongside the wall and out of the house. Despite the cost of the bathroom, they added £30 on to fit plywood around the pipe so they could tile over it. No, this wasn't included in the 10 grand. - A leak occurred during the work as they didn't put up the correct covers outside. - We had to constantly ask for the house and outer area to be tidied at the end of each day because dangerous items such as nails, broken tiles and sharp pieces of wood were left lying around with dust left unswept despite the fact we were living in the house while the work was being done. Surrey Lofts may reply to this message denying these events or offering excuse but it's all true, I've attached images.

We've had an awful experience with Surrey Lofts and Mark Grimshaw! Stay away from this company!…read more I've attached photos of what they considered the finished project. They did a terrible job on our loft extension, then when we were on holiday their plumber flooded our downstairs and destroyed our back room. They're now denying any liability and we may have to take them to court, as the damage is extensive. One of the worst things was they actually stole money from our child's charity jar (yes we have evidence). The process was terrible, the project manager useless, zero communication after the first week, he never answered his phone, constantly lied to us and the office, he didn't know what was needed or what to do. He didn't even know there was supposed to be an electrical certificate supplied before building control signed off. We constantly had to take in materials because they never showed up, they took the key to our garage and stole items out of it, as well as stole from our house. It all culminated in the job failing building control due to their incompetence. We've now had to pay external tradesmen to come in and finish in order to bring the work up to a suitable finish for decorating, as the quality of the work was so shockingly bad. They started in June, it's now end of October and we're still waiting for them to repair the damage they caused. We've now had them referred to Trading Standards and been advised by Citizens Advice that they're violating the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and to take them to court if they don't put things right. Here's the lowlights of all the things they did: surreyloftsreviews.com/surrey-lofts-review-list-of-problems-we-had/

I have had the pleasure of working with Michael and his team from Kingston Home Services for…read moreseveral years now, and I couldn't be happier with their work. Four years ago, they completely transformed my after-school club, taking care of both the decoration, new kitchen and flooring. The quality of their work was outstanding, and the space has looked fantastic ever since. Since that initial project, I have called on Kingston Home Services for various smaller jobs, and they have consistently delivered excellent results. Their work is always of the highest quality, and they approach each task with a level of professionalism and reliability that is hard to find. Michael and his team are not only skilled and efficient, but they are also incredibly friendly and easy to work with. Their dedication to customer satisfaction is evident in every interaction. I am so impressed with their work that I have just booked them again for a full redecoration this August. If you are looking for a team that is reliable, professional, and delivers high-quality results with competitive prices I highly recommend Kingston Home Services. They have certainly earned my trust and continued business. Iren Little Star School Club

Only laid foundations and built the external walls. Meanwhile, director Irshad Alli Ramzan kept on asking for more and more money despite having received our deposit. Abandoned project in November 2019 after we got suspicious and requested to see the report from the Building Control inspector. Turns out he NEVER booked an inspection and told his workers to build without inspection from Building Control. Mr. Ramzan confessed he had spent our money for his own purposes and there was no money left to continue work on our project. He also said he expected to receive funds from another project and when that happens he will pay us back. Bottom line - Irshad Ramzan ripped us off and we will probably never get our money back.
