Builders in Cottenham, Cambridgeshire, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 August 2023
“Konrad and his team fitted my Wrens kitchen and did a great job. No little detail was too much trouble and were absolute perfectionists in the best possible way. We found them friendly, trustworthy and communications was always excellent. We were happy to leave them in our house by themselves and I will certainly use them again for my bathrooms etc. Definitely recommended.”

“Very pleased with Dan & the Ratcliff & Burridge Team. We underwent a complete garden renovation with construction of an open garden room. The team were organised and attentive even to minor details. Stayed professional throughout even when small changes were made mid project, and gave trusted advice when issues arose. Communication remained constant throughout the project and all works were completed on time.”

Imogen Jack
Builders in Cottenham, Cambridgeshire, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 September 2015
“Matt and his team at Imogen Jack did a fabulous job converting an outdated and unnecessary en suite to my daughters room into a stunning extra bathroom. From the beginning of the process to the end...advice, vision, plans and execution, Matt was fabulous and he's surrounded by a great team. We now have a lovely extra shower/wet room for the whole family to use and it has a really great finish. Thanks Imogen Jack - the Burgess family are very happy customers!”
Applewood Design and Build Ltd
Builders in Cottenham, Cambridgeshire, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 August 2019
“We chose Applewood thanks to recommendations from a number of local friends. Our two-storey extension was completed on time and on budget thanks to Martyn's fantastic organisational skills and the care taken by his team. They were a pleasure to work with, in fact we rather enjoyed the whole process and missed them after they left! And we couldn't be more delighted with the final result - should have done it years ago.”
G.L.Smith & Sons Builders
Builders in Cottenham, Cambridgeshire, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 April 2019
“From beginning to end our kitchen project was managed by Dale and his team. His professional, enthusiastic and friendly approach helped with the design and build and he fully adopted and created our vision for the new kitchen. We are delighted with our spacious entertaining area and would happily use the GLS team for future building projects.”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in Cottenham:
  1. Local builders will be familiar with your local authorities building regulations, being able to advise on any relevant permits you need before work can begin.
  2. Builders near you will be aware of the climate of your area, and can recommend materials and construction methods suitable for your area.
  3. Building firms nearby will provide quicker responses and quotes compared to contractors outside of your local area, as they are nearby, they will often drop in to talk to you about your project and view the property.

For home builders, you will usually receive a quote for a building project instead of daily rates or hourly fees. The cost depends on various factors such as the type of job, builders experience and length of the project.

Expect to pay less for a small maintenance job such as brickwork repair or an extension of an existing wall than a new build project such as a kitchen or bathroom renovation and home extensions. After you’ve found a local builder for your project, speaking with them in detail about your project will help them give you an accurate estimate for the work required.
If you hire a home builder for a lengthy project, such as an extension, your builder may charge a daily rate. You can expect to pay around £350 per day for this. If your builder charges this way, ask for an estimation of how long this will take so you know roughly how much the total cost will be.

Compile a shortlist of at least three builders in Cottenham that can handle the full scope of works, either by themselves or through sub-contracting. It is often a good idea to play devils advocate and ask what the builder will not be responsible for. Be wary of unusually cheap quotes. Ask for references and stories about how the builder has met different challenges along the way. If you can, you could try to see previous projects and talk to previous clients, or if not, read reviews, recommendations and ratings, and look at detailed photos of projects.
