Recommended Builder (Home or Garden)

Recommended Posts

I wanted to recommend our builder PJ Newnham who over the summer did an incredible job turning our yarden from a grotty mess into a really lovely enjoyable outdoor space. This was the last job PJ did for us over a 18m period when he completely renovated our Victorian conversion on Worlingham Road (3 x bathrooms, kitchen, decorating, all carpentry, front garden, full exterior render, renovation of loft conversion, replacement windows throughout, all plastering, all electrics, new bifold and interior doors etc...)


PJ and his team worked through the awful weather we had in July to hit a deadline for us. He was adaptable, cost conscious and came up with great solutions to design a really lovely outdoor space that became an extension of our kitchen in the summer months.


We count PJ as one of our friends now; he became a part of the furniture and was great fun to have around the place.


We can't recommend him enough for his great attitude, hard work, craftsmanship and dedication to doing a really great job.


PJ's contact details are: [email protected] and his number is: 07775 520400

Hi im sorry to jump onto your post but I can't belive you could say pj did such a great a job.


He did not meet a deadline and royaly and I mean royaly cocked up every job he was surpossed to do for me I paid him a lot of money for a very poor poor job which now I'm spending more money redoing.


I'm so shocked there is so many nice things being said about him because as a person he is not a nice at all.

    • Avoid companies that are run by non trades people Seems to be the trend lately. Check them on Companies house first. There are some great family companies or sole traders. LMQ Roofing 07860 467708 [email protected] ANR Roofing 08009330439 Fist on my list is Liam McQueen https://www.lmqroofingservices.com/ Honest, reliable, constant updates, proper written quotes professional and lovely polite workers. Great work. Also though we did not use them in the end ANR Roofing based in Wimbledon offered some sound advice and quote.  Also very lovely family run firm. And Crest Roofing based in EC1V 2NX came and gave a quote and seemed very lovely with some advice also. 07934 975769
    • Had a terrible experience with this company recently. Their rooofers were abusive and really not nice. Simple job to remove an aerial which we knew would mostly cost in scaffold turned into a nightmare, They dug up old rotten boards in our front garden (there for beetles) and use under the scaffold. When we questioned the positioning of the scaffold (we needed it down the side and not on top of plants and garden) I received a torrent of offensive teenage sexist shouting. The main guy doing this was called Jimmy. They did eventually remove the aerial (no tools to do so I had to supply) They told us the side of the hip needed new timbers and re-roofing. We'd recently had it inspected and it looked good (I'm a carpenter by trade and went and looked at rafters inside - no issue. They seemed to take offense at my carpentry knowledge also. They pulled ridge tile off then told us it would be 3200 to repair!! Stood on a non load bearing lead canopy and more.  Left cooked food and rubbish in garden, Just avoid them is my advice.One of an ever increasing number of firms owned not by trades people who subcontract and pay the scaffolders pennies. I'll do recommendations in another post!  
    • I live locally and am on Lordship Lane and North Cross Road most days. I've never been forced into traffic, or noticed any problem in any of these places! I appreciate that might be different with a buggy or mobility aid. I like to see people enjoying themselves outside. 
    • It's good that you've never personally had to experience poison being left but it is a known fact in this area. It's not fly tipping - people leave food out for foxes but there are also people who purposefully leave food out to kill animals.
