Reviews of Builders in Abbey, Cambridge
Abbey, CB1

I'm not sure
The wall is between 2 downstairs rooms and is about 12 feet by 8 feet, including a door. Like I said, I'm pretty sure it's load bearing.
Dan's a nice guy, very reliable and did a great job. Highly recommended - I'd definitely use him again.

I'm not sure
I want to convert my kitchen to open plan by removing the separator wall between the kitchen and the living area. It is a brick wall and it seems that it might be load bearing. I need to know how much it will cost to put a replacement support and for carrying out the whole job.
Richard is a very reliable person and he's very efficient and finished the job on time. I'd recommend him for any building work.

We would like a wall between our dining room and kitchen taking out. We're not sure if this would require additional structurual work or not.

- a new access knocked through a brick wall into my kitchen. I do not believe that the wall is a supporting one. This access will require a glazed door.
- a stud wall build to make a corridor, this will also require a doorway and can re-use an existing internal door.

Updated : We recently moved and need a few jobs doing in the flat, we have a solid concrete fireplace that we need removing and also a pantry-type large cupboard (floor to ceiling) built in to the kitchen that we'd like to be removed - non load bearing wall, as we are getting a new kitchen and need the space. The fireplace is just ugly, trust me i normally love them but this thing is hideous. Original : we have a solid concrete fireplace that we need removing, also a pantry in the kitchen - non load bearing wall. We would like someone who could remove and re-plaster over the fire place as we just want rid of the thing.

I would like to have a chimney breast removed from my downstairs sitting room. It is in the corner of the room and I would like the room to be squared off.
Also would like all walls skimming.

Replacement sunroof for existing conservatory/kitchen.....Black roof finish
( which I have seen in the glazing brochures ) and white inside...OR wood ..the roof design has to fit around the soil pipe. The roof will fit the entire space to the outer brick walls otherwise I would have prefered a Roof Lantern these designe are neat and perfect.
the cottage (1818) roof possibly requires a design drawing to get a sympathetic finish.
The walls are Ok - the original roof was not thought out for a great design yet has been and still is watertight since 1995!
I have no idea of the cost of a replacement glass roof so have filled in the under £4000 figure
