Trusted Across Nottinghamshire
Had a supporting wall taken out to open up our kitchen and lounge. Dave talked us through exactly what building regs needed before we signed anything, which we appreciated after getting vague answers from two other builders. Only reason it's not five stars is the job overran by a few days, though they didn't charge extra for it.
Good job overall. Building control raised a query on the staircase position partway through which pushed us back about a week, but Hallam sorted the paperwork without passing the delay cost on to us. Would use again.
We'd been putting off doing anything with our kitchen for years because the thought of living through a renovation filled us with dread, but honestly it wasn't half as disruptive as we expected. The lads were in and out within three weeks, always cleared up before they left, and even our fussy cat got used to them being around by the second week. Can't fault the finish on the units either.
Hallam quoted 10 weeks for our single-storey rear extension and that's exactly how long it took, even with a delay getting the steel delivered. Dave kept us updated the whole way through and the finish on the plastering is better than the original walls in the house.
New bathroom finished in six days, exactly as quoted. Tiling is spot on. No complaints.

Frequently Asked Questions
- We cover Nottingham, Mansfield, Newark-on-Trent and Grantham, plus most of the towns and villages in between. If you're just outside that area, give us a call. We can often still help, we just factor in a bit more travel time when quoting.
- Many single-storey rear extensions and loft conversions fall under permitted development, which means no full planning application is needed. It depends on the size, your property type and whether you're in a conservation area. We check this as part of the initial site visit and tell you exactly what's needed before you commit to anything.
- A single-storey rear extension typically starts from £28,000, depending on size, groundwork and finish. Loft conversions start from around £42,000. We give you a detailed written quote after the site visit, broken down by stage, so there's no guesswork on price.
- Yes. We're a member of the Federation of Master Builders and carry full public liability insurance. FMB membership means our work is vetted independently, and larger jobs can be backed by their insurance-protected guarantee scheme.
- A straightforward kitchen renovation usually takes 2 to 3 weeks from strip-out to fitted units. If the job involves knocking through a wall or moving plumbing and electrics, add another week or two. We'll give you a realistic timescale as part of the quote, not just a best-case estimate.
- Yes, every job gets a written, fixed-price quote before we start. If something unexpected comes up once we open up the walls, such as damp or old wiring that needs addressing, we'll explain it and agree a price before doing that work, not add it to the invoice afterwards.
