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.

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

We used Ivory Contractors for a full refurbishment of our house. Ivory turned up on time and worked flat out all day and always tidied up before they left (often overlooked by builders). Their standard of work and attention to detail was amazing. They undertook every part of our project and at each step we were super happy. Joe the boss is an absolute professional and everyone who worked with him impressed us with their hard work and dedication. We would completely recommend Ivory without hesitation.

Good job great bunch of lads cost-effective and excellent workmanship
An excellent job, on time and on budget. I found PM very straight forward to deal with, knowledgeable in all aspects of the trades required, and very hard working. They 'thought ahead' about what was required and made a 100% effort to attend to all the fine detailing. All in all, I can heartily recommend this firm and have already lined them up for additional building works.
