Craig got in touch quickly, gave me a rough estimate over the phone and answered all my questions. Surveyor arrived on time, gave instant quote. Price was good. Michael and (another) Craig turned up to do the job on the day, time given. Good, tidy job. Can't fault anything, from start to finish!! Would recommend!

George and his team are experienced builders, replaced my front door with a custom frame/sidelights and raising the floor level in the hallway quite quickly - in fact, they were the only who came next day, gave a quote straightaway and were ready to start in just couple of days. They also had all the necessary tools and materials, were ready to buy something additional quickly on the day - if further adjustments were required to fit everything as I asked. Thanks a lot for your help, guys!

Highly recommend. These guys did a fantastic job of constructing our pergola and decking. Very hardworking and reliable. The job was completed in the time frame agreed and to a very high standard. We would 100% use them again.

Very impressed with both Dan personally, and with the job done. Cheaper than most other quotes, could start within the week, and most importantly turned up when he said he was going to turn up and got the job done within the quoted timeframe. Highly recommended all round

Absolutely delighted with your service. The carpenter called me straight away, and arranged a date to call. The work has been completed to our total satisfaction. Also we felt that the carpenter listened and provided the right solution; prior to carrying out the work. Very good value for money. We will use your company again. Many thanks. Wendy Doody

We at POW Property Developments are a family-run business that specialises in construction and development services. Our founder, Louis Pow, has built up over 10 years’ worth of experience in the industry, starting out with small refurbishments and now taking on large-scale new build projects. We can manage work on several properties at once, which is why we’ve become the first-choice team for many homeowners. Renovation: - A renovation will significantly increase the property value if you’re looking to sell in the future. - Similarly, a renovation will make your new building more comfortable - It may be that your property has an outdated structure, weak beams and damaged doors. - Rest assured, all the renovated areas will be thoroughly checked to make sure the results meet our high standard. Repairs & Maintenance services: - Heating and boiler repairs - Fire Door Regulation - Leaking taps and pipework - Painting and Decorating - Floor and roof repairs - Electrical Faults - Damp Issues - Driveway, Patio, and decking - Blocked drains and gutters - Fencing - Windows, doors, and conservatories - Brickwork, Plastering and rendering Refurbishment: - Less comprehensive than renovations, refurbishment usually involves making aesthetic changes to property to make it feel more like home. - By working with our team, you will experience minimal inconvenience, as we have the tools and experience needed to complete all work at a high standard.

Really impressed with the Pow property team. The communication from the start was great! Always updated on plans and progress. From quote to completion work was quick but this wasn’t at detriment to the quality of work. Everything was thought through in detail and executed to the highest standard.

I came across this company through Rated People, I had a small rent property and live a long distance away, and I didn’t know anyone in the area until I came across Ash Carpentry. I found them approachable (always answer the phone) Reliable (told us his work schedule and stuck to it) Value for money (no hidden cost) Very happy and will use again. Paul-Maidenhead
