Real reviews from Cornwall homeowners, straight from Google. From single repairs to full renovations, the same standard every time.
I really cannot rate Ben and his team highly enough. In recent years he has carried out a full kitchen and utility renovation in our home, as well as laying new flooring across the downstairs of our house. Both projects were carried out to an extremely high standard and we are delighted with the finished results. Ben is polite, friendly and professional, and provided excellent and helpful advice to us throughout the process. He also communicated with us throughout the projects and kept us well informed of how things were progressing. I would not hesitate to recommend Ben - he is fantastic at what he does and a true professional.
Ben and the team delivered a fantastic project from start to finish on my 3-bedroom bungalow, transforming it into a beautiful 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with an excellent dormer extension. The workmanship was superb throughout, and the finished result exceeded all expectations. Ben was outstanding from day one, providing a clear plan for every stage of the project and keeping us informed throughout. The team completed the work well ahead of schedule without ever compromising on quality. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ben and his team to anyone looking for a reliable, professional builder who takes real pride in delivering exceptional results
Ben and his Team made a full size renovation of our Cottage in Mousehole during Covid times. Us living in south Germany, meant communication by telephone and zoom, but most important, somebody really taking care on site. Ben turned out to be not just a brilliant craftsmen, but also a care-taker, or even better a project manager setting up timelines with his subs and coordinating the whole process in close (zoom) communication with us. Total cost were close to forecasted, deviations were coming up, but mainly caused by the hidden condition of the house. So we give Ben and his Team 5 stars. Simply trustful and reliable craftsmen, always aiming a perfect result for their customer. Thank you Ben!
Ben and his team have worked on several projects for us over the years including 2 houses and several businesses. Work undertaken has included new chimneys, full restaurant remodelling and refurbishment, roof repairs, and a whole commercial new build project from demolishing, foundations and rebuilding. Ben and his team are all professional and personable and Ben is great at communicating throughout the projects.
Ben and his team completed a full renovation of the downstairs of our house including removing walls. Ben explained the whole process well, was able to offer advice when needed and communicated early on when they would need certain fittings during the build. We moved back in towards the end of the renovation and found the team easy to have around the house, polite and helpful if I had any questions. The whole experience was professional and I would use Ben and his team again for future work. A very happy customer
Ben worked on the total renovation of our cottage and ten years later no problems! His work is of very high standard, he was always reliable and provided a range of solutions and ideas throughout the project. Communication was always good, it was a pleasure to deal with Ben and we’d happily use him again on any future project.
We have used Ben’s services over many years for small jobs and large. We have always found him to be very responsive to initial enquiries, and excellent at liaising with us to identify the most appropriate proposed work. His team of workers are skilled, reliable, efficient and tidy. Ben is always our first port of call when we want advice on possible building work.
Ben and Co have undertaken numerous jobs for us in the past both commercial and domestic from re building chimneys to a knock through kitchen and installation of steel supports, bi fold doors, new kitchen, new outdoor decking etc. Ben always gives a professional service and his staff are always friendly and obliging too. Ben is very good at answering phone calls and emails which is alway a bonus!
