Quotes came back double what you can spend? Don’t bin the plans.

Most homeowners Rob meets have already paid an architect, and the quotes that came back were miles over budget. Rob reads the drawings himself, not an estimator, and prices every line. If the number is too high, you can see exactly which line to lift out, and he’ll tell you straight whether it still works.

If they’ve got plans and haven’t got a builder, they don’t need to look any further.

Rob's own house in Worthing, four phases.

Rob's own house, Worthing

Rob’s own house, built by the team that’d build yours.

Four phases over a few years. A full renovation, a double storey timber frame extension, the garden, pool and bar, then a double storey wraparound with a garage, a self contained annex, a master suite and a gym with a balcony. Rob designed it alongside the architect.

Before you pick a builder

Come and walk round one we’ve finished.

Rob will take you round a job we’ve finished. Walk it, meet the trades who would be in your house, and ask the family anything you like, with Rob there or without him.

Who you meet
The same carpenters, sparky, plumber and plasterer who would be on your job. Not whoever is free that week.
Who you talk to
The homeowners. Ask them how it went, what it cost against the quote, and whether they would have Rob back.
What it costs
Nothing. Just ask Rob when you send your drawings.
We couldn’t be happier with the work completed on our double garage conversion and two bedroom annexe for my elderly parents. The quality of workmanship, communication and professionalism were outstanding throughout. The team were reliable, respectful and took real pride in every aspect of the build. We were so impressed that we’ve already asked the same company to return next year to refurbish and extend our main house.
Verified reviewerGarage conversion and annexe, BN43 · Checkatrade
The job turned out to be more complicated (because of the building and the way it was originally built) and Rob was really proactive with guiding us through the best way to get the job done. The work all looks amazing and has been completed before we were expecting. Everyone told us that work like this always takes longer than quoted for but it actually wasn’t in our case.

Rob is a great project manager who coordinated the different teams involved well. He recommended improvements to what had been planned, flagged and resolved issues as they arose. I was kept informed throughout. The work is to a high standard and I am really happy with the result.
