Shpati Construction

“Shpati construction were fantastic we we wanted to to add an extension to our house. They were extremely communicative and offered competitive prices using the highest quality. Our extension was constructed within 2 months which was sooner than expected. I would most definitely recommend their craftsmanship and professionalism. We couldn’t be more satisfied!”

Family Developments Ltd
Builders in London, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 February 2020
“Alex and his team have done a brilliant job so far. During the early phases of our project he was very patient and had several meetings with us to understand our requirements in greater detail. He was very good at suggesting ways to save cost where possible. He accomodated most of our additional requests as the project went along and helped us to stick to our agreed budget in most cases and wherever there was any increase due to any scope creep or any confusions, it was well explained, and reasonably priced. They been professional, polite and provided a friendly service. The finish has been excellent and any concerns which we had were addressed immediately. Alex had weekly meetings to walk us through the progress and answer all our queries which we may have during our build. He didn't take any upfront deposits and only invoiced us once he had worked for a couple of weeks on our project. This gave us the confidence to hire him without having to part with our cash upfront. We have already recommended him to many of our family and friends and have been lucky to have him manage our job very smoothly and provide a professional service. Both me and my wife work long hours and Alex has been managing our project and his team and kept us in the loop. They been very considerate of our neighbours and have kept the noise to a minimum where possible. Alex has made our dream house a reality. Its been a pleasure dealing with him and his team and I can't recommend him enough”
R.A.S. Construction And Design Ltd
Builders in London, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 February 2019
“I have used Chris and his team at R.A.S Construction for several 'full service' projects (covering refurbishment, extending, plumbing, re-wiring etc) - each time the work and service has been exceptional. We received a detailed, competitive quote and the work was completed on-time to a very high standard. I would have no hesitation recommending them or using again. He provided references and gave the opportunity to view past projects (we were so impressed by the work and dedication that we were happy to have potential customers contact us and even view our finished projects).”

Dominic Payte

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 June 2020

MoreSpace
Builders in London, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 January 2021
“We decided to choose MoreSpace to build our loft extension and were so glad we did. We were firstly consulted by Stuart Ellerby who gave us a thorough overview of what was involved in a loft extension and who is responsible for what during the project. His knowledge was first class and he spoke in layman’s terms and not jargon which we found very engaging and brought it to life. Once we agreed on the project, Stuart also kept in touch throughout with regular site visits and was also super responsive when we raised any questions. His aftercare has also been great. The team who built our loft was insane. The team was led by Jake and everyone in his team were super friendly and accommodating, whether it was popping up for a sneak peek on progress, asking any questions or looking to make slight adjustments. The finish of the job is perfect and exactly what we’d hoped for. They left the place clean and was complete within a much shorter time period than I expected. For such a large project, this felt like the easiest one I’ve had to undertake so far thanks to Stuart, Jake and his team. We did shop around with 4 other competitors and these by far have the best reputation and I’m glad I trusted the reviews. 5* Thanks Team!!!”
Inscope Management Services Ltd
Builders in London, UK
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars16 March 2015
“Inscope Management carried out the refurbishment/building work for a recent interior design project for a large apartment in Chelsea. This included a new bathrooms and kitchen (their speciality). Their work was of a high standard and their professionalism, pleasant & considerate behaviour worked well, in this potentially difficult and dense site with many occupied apartments around. They worked within designated times, and cleared and cleaned the communal access areas each day. Very pleased with their performance.”
Homeconcepts
Builders in London, UK
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 November 2015
“I have undertaken many projects, and Homeconcepts is the one company that I can honestly say was a joy to work with. They have the winning combination of highly professional management and a superb building team. No need for ‘snag lists; there are none. I am hoping to do a complete renovation next year and would not dream of looking anywhere else. Alan Bowie, East Molesey.”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in London:
  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.

After choosing either option, you can reach out to the builders you want to discuss your project with. You can request and compare quotes before hiring the right builder for you.
When looking for a London building company to take on your project, you will want to know that they will be able to handle the job in good time and sticking to your agreed budget. A professional contractor will have worked on projects like yours previously and they will know exactly what to do.

Compile a shortlist of at least three builders in London 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. All of which you can find on Houzz.
