Updated : the wall is a stud wall with plasterboard. We don't want the wall completely removed, just the centrall area. Original : Need a wall taken down between two rooms.
Martin and Kelvin were a pleasure to work with. They arrived on time and were very easy to get along with. We are delighted with the quality of work and would have no hesitation in asking them to return should we ever need a builder again.marion
We're getting a new kitchen installed and need to fill in a door to an old larder space that we'll no longer need. Kitchen installation is due to start on at the end of January so the we'd like the job done as soon as possible.
The guys turned up bang on time and got straight to work. Great guys, nothing's ever too much trouble and a quality finish to their work. I'd recommend them.Patrick
Corrugated asbestos currently on the roof but this will be removed by asbestos company prior to any work to be carried out. We will then want a felt roof in it's place and we believe this will need additional support to the wood support currently in place. The shed is brick built and approximately 8' x 8'.
Reliable and friendly. Has done an excellent job which he fitted in quickly. Would definitely recommend and would undoubtedly contact him again when we need further work done. Very pleased.Barbara
Removal of three internal walls, including moving some electrics. We think they are not supporting.
Removal of a large brick fireplace.
Addition of a side window.
Addition of a porch.
Possibly convert the garage.
We would like to start the work ASAP but could do the work in stages, starting with the internal walls, so there is some flexibility on timings.
We are very pleased with the work. Brian came up with excellent ideas for improving on our plans at the quotation stage. The work proceeded very quickly with the minimum of disruption to us - all rubbish and mess were cleaned away. Special mention must go to Rick, the carpenter, for his superb work, and we are really pleased with the finish the decorators achieved as well.
We will definitely be returning to Herts Building 2003 next year to install a dormer window. Thanks!Lesley
High Homes have done the most fantastic job transforming our shabby 70's porch. Everything was done with a care and attention to detail rarely seen these days, and at a fair price.
We've arranged a new date already for more work to be done and it will be great to see them again.
This company will never appear on Watchdog!robert
