This company has been exceptional they have excellent quality of work. Our quote was accurate. They definitely took pride in their work and worked hard. Very easy to get in contact with and always came back to me. They explained the work as we went along. Always turned up on the days they said they were coming and very punctual. Left the property clean and tidy and removed all rubbish. We would highly recommend this company cannot fault them, so helpful and supported us through out this project. Excellent!

I chose Alderson Building Company as they are a Which Trusted Trader, and they lived up to expectations. Ray, Roy & Liam plus the rest of the team completed our cloakroom and first floor extension to a high standard and within the original estimate and time-frame. We were kept informed throughout the process; they were always friendly, polite and tidy, and they minimised the disruption which is inevitable for such work. I'm happy to recommend them.

We were pleased to discover Alderson Building Company and found Ray and his team attentive, speedy and efficient, and good value for money. Both jobs were completed without fuss and there was good coordination with all of the sub-contractors managed by Ray.

Found Alderson Building on Which? Trusted traders & had good reviews. I wanted a small bespoke job for my elderly mother. Ray & the team were happy to meet on-site & plan the best options for my mum's mobility & working around my ability to be on-site. Works were great and completed swiftly. Would definitely recommend & use again.

We contracted Ray and his team to build a porch extension with a downstairs toilet. We chose Ray because we thought that communication was great from the start and he listened to what we wanted. The work started on schedule and throughout the build, Ray and his team kept us informed about what was going on and offered helpful advice. They left our property tidy and as clean as practically possible at the end of every day. While he was not the cheapest quote we got we feel that the quality and top notch service made it well worth the money. The work was completed on time and on budget I can't express enough how pleased we are with the end result. We thought Ray and his team were really helpful throughout the whole process and will definitely book them again for future projects.

The wall at the front of my house had partially collapsed. I had not used this company before but Ray responded promptly, came and did an estimate and did the work promptly. They demolished the existing wall and built a new wall and at all times Ray kept me informed on progress. The work was completed in three days and they cleared up and left the site in pristine condition. The bill was the same as the estimate. Overall a very positive experience and I would not hesitate to recommend the firm or to use them again.

We needed extensive renovation to our new house in St Albans. A completely new kitchen and bathroom, new floors, and a supporting wall knocked through. Alderson Building Company walked us through exactly what we needed to do and who to contact. They're great people to work with and definitely knew what they were talking about. They pretty much sorted everything out for us, from the construction work, to the flooring, plumbing and electrics. They consulted with us throughout the process, with cost and time estimates. When we discovered the under floorboards were warped, they quickly replaced them. The work was completed quicker than planned and to a very high standard and finish. Afterwards, when we had a slight issue with our oven, they came round very quickly to fix it. So we are very pleased with our choice to use Alderson Building Company.

Ray and his hardworking team have built us a fabulous rear extension to replace our ageing conservatory. They are a very professional, polite and affable team. They arrived every day on time for a days work. They were meticulous with keeping the site tidy and safe. Communication with Ray and his team was excellent, we were always made aware of the next stage of the build and when to expect other tradesmen ie window/door fitters. We were happy to leave them in our house to get on with the job in hand while we had other places to be. They are very trustworthy and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

This company came in to fit news doors and adjust some other doors within our primary school, they were amazing! They were a great price, friendly people, quick workers, professional and cleared away all there waste. I would 100% recommend this company to anyone. They have excellent communication skills and are always happy to answer any questions you may have. Very happy with the results and the work has been complimented by all. The pride they take in there work is brilliant and it shows. The doors are fab! THANK YOU!

I approached Alderson building from the good reviews for building some new steps and was not disappointed. They rebuilt our original steps and organised a fabricator to make and install a steel handrail which has turned out really good. Ray was very professional and helpful all the way through. Ray and his guy were ontime when coming to do the job and they cleaned up well after the works. I had never used them before but certainly would again, I would not hesitate to recommend them to other people. Very pleased.

Saw this company's details on here and we were impressed from the start. There were 4 different jobs on 2 buildings a minor repair on a third and Mr Alderson came out to assess the work required. His quotations were competitive and given promptly; they were able to commence work on a date convenient to them /us; they worked steadily; were punctual; tidy; all debris was removed. Whilst here they were civil, affable and patient. The work was completed on schedule and all results were complete to our satisfaction. Therefore we would not hesitate to use this company again or recommend it to others.

Ray and his team installed 2 patios earlier this year. So impressed we asked for a garage conversion , downstairs toilet upgrade and to hang 4 new doors as our next project. All work was of high quality, everything was left tidy each day and they always helped with advice if needed. They are all such a friendly and happy team. As before we will definitely recommend ABC builders.

We contact Alderson Builders in January as we wanted a new porch built , we recieved a visit from Ray and a competitive quotation in a matter of days. We gave the Goahead and the Job was completed to an exceptional standard. From seeing the work Ray and the team put in we decided to have a rear extension on our property and we call Ray in straight away who went thorugh everything thoroughly and promptly gave us a quotation and start date. The works have been completed and it was great to have a company in your house who you can trust. We gave them Keys and alarm details to our property without even thinking twice. Anything else that needs doing we will be calling them.

We contacted ABC Builders to help and advise replacing our 2 patios. With their help on the design and advice which materials to use we now have 2 fantastic patios. They are a very hard working team, on site every day and kept our property nice and tidy. They were very helpful in all respects and we would recommend this company. Thanks ABC Builders.

Alderson Building Company built and extension to our house in Leverstock Green l. The workmanship was excellent, a hard working team, very conscientious, clean and tidy and work was completed on time. I would certainly recommend Alderson Building Company to anybody looking for a good building team.

Ray and his employees removed an old covering over our sideway and replaced it with a new clear plastic covering. They also built a new wooden frame to support the double polycarbonate roof and connecting strips. We were very impressed both with their work and pleasant attitude. It took them two days to complete the work, and we hardly noticed they were there. Later Ray came and repaired a brick wall in our front garden replacing a capping stone. A more cheerful and prompt builder could not be asked for and we highly recommend his staff and work.

Alderson Building Company has recently completed a garage conversion and porch extension on our property. They were incredibly professional, friendly and communicated with us effectively over the course of the project. We are over the moon with how the work has transformed our home. We would recommend them to our friends and family, and to anyone else looking to do similar work.

I purchased my first property in 2020 which needed a lot of work to be brought up to date. I had not hired a builder before and was finding it a little difficult. However Ray turned up promptly and advised me on the project, telling me what I needed to consider before an accurate quote could be produced. Based on his feedback I put together a more detailed plan and asked him to come back. He produced a quote which was fair and detailed and committed to getting the work started quickly. A lockdown was announced on the evening the work started which was unfortunate as the old kitchen had been removed that morning! Ray kept the team separated from the rest of the property, organised their own routes in and out and handled all their own refreshments. He also managed the procedures and bubbles for other trades who were needed so everyone felt secure. I was very grateful that this was managed professionally so that work could continue and my family wasn't left without a kitchen for months. I am very happy with the finished work, any extras were discussed and agreed as they arose and so the final bill contained no surprises. I was especially pleased that the work was done so quickly and that Ray project managed everything from unexpected issues with the kitchen supplier, to the additional trades and Covid restriction.

After doing a great job for us on some small internal alterations a few years ago we asked Ray and his team to complete a big project for us this year. We had our conservatory knocked down and a single-storey extension built in its place, plus a significant number of internal alterations which required numerous steel beams and associated construction. Once again, we are delighted with our finished renovation. Ray and his team worked with us for four months and were extremely thoughtful with regards to our living conditions and of those around us. They left the house spotless every day and our neighbours all commented on how considerate they were on the street throughout. They completed the project within the time scales they’d estimated and even completed a few extra bits that we’d identified along the way. Ray, Roy and Liam are a pleasure to have around the house. They are genuinely nice guys who take real pride in what they do which is demonstrated in the quality of their work. Their pricing is very fair for the quality of work they produce and we wouldn’t hesitate to use them again for any future projects.

I needed two boundary walls built with bespoke fencing, I had general ideas of what I wanted, but had great advice From Ray, which gave us a Far better result. Being happy with the first project I asked the team to lay a difficult patterned slate patio, again really pleased. They listened to what I said, and gave me what I wanted. Happy to send photos if needed.

Following a great job building our extension (reviewed at the beginning of the year), Ray and his team have completed an en-suite shower room for us. The work was once again carried out to a high standard, and we are delighted with the result.

I contacted Alderson Building Company on the 12th of June 2020 and booked an appointment for the following Monday for a visit. The gentleman turned up and even called before he came out which I appreciated. I spent around 45 minutes discussing my needs and the access issues and measuring up was then done. I was advised it would be around a week for a quote which I was okay with however, after waiting over a week I received a text message advising me that they had had an influx of work and were unable to even provide me with a quote. I deliberately searched for a company through the Which? site and made an effort to look at reviews to get a decent company however I am disappointed and am no further forward than I was 2 weeks ago.

Ray and his 2 sons, did a fantastic job building our kitchen extension. We are delighted with the quality and standard of their work. They kept to the schedule, and despite some bad weather finished when they said they would. They were also very thoughtful and practical in offering solutions to any problems which arose. Their qualities were also reflected in the trades they used, and their friendliness and ease of approach meant the 3 months of disruption to our kitchen were as pleasant as they could be. We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them.

After using Ray and the team on my extension, I was pleased that they were chosen for our extension at preschool. They built an extension to house toilets, sinks, a cupboard and washing machine. We are so pleased with the outcome. Ray also donated a kids size dumper truck and digger for the children to play with. Thank you.

Ray and his team built our single storey extension which also included a new sideway access and garden boundary upgrade. The work was carried out on time and on budget. The team were on site every day and the quality of work was excellent. We have also used their services for smaller renovations to other parts of our property and their quality of service and workmanship are first-rate.

Ray and his team built an extension and fitted my kitchen. They were reliable and worked efficiently. They always tidied up after themselves and I was able to trust them to do the job as expected. Ray communicated well and talked to me about decisions that needed to be made. There were no hidden costs. I would recommend him and his team.

Over the last 5 years Ray, his two sons, and the handful of trusted partners they work with for specialist jobs, have completed a full renovation of our house- extension, demolition, kitchen, bathrooms, plastering, tiling, electrics, joinery...there isn’t much they done! Completely trustworthy, they get the job done consulting you every step of the way. The quality of their work is second to none and they work in an efficient and considerate way- making living through the work as comfortable as possible. I wouldn’t use anyone else, and as result of the work on our house I know they have had enquiries from several neighbours

From receiving the initial competitive quote to the competition of the work, Ray, Roy and Liam have been polite and professional. Throughout the job, they arrived on time and managed the other trades well, ensuring that the work progressed as planned. When unexpected jobs cropped up, Ray discussed the necessary work and agreed a price before proceeding, written quotes were always provided for my records. They kept the area as tidy and ensured not to inconvenience us. The work was completed to a high standard. My neighbours have been pleased with their approach, with one contacting them to quote for work. I would not hesitate to use ABC again for any future work and recommend them wholeheartedly.

We contracted Alderson Building Company for an extension to our church, I would highly recommend them anyone. They are a credit to the industry, they finished ahead of schedule and to an extremely high standard. When submitting their quote they did'nt hide any costs. Even when we did have additional costs they worked with us to get the best possible result. Helpful, polite, clean and tidy and a joy to have on the premises. The other tradesmen they brought to sight were top class.

Great team – would definitely consider ABC for other projects. I found Ray and his boys very professional, arriving on time every day and providing a high standard of work. The whole job was very well organised with skip in situ from day one and the work area kept clean and tidy throughout the entire job. Very happy with the end result and would highly recommend.

We have used ABC builders for several building jobs, including a rear extension, new guttering and a garden wall. Most recently they have re-pointed our chimney. They always arrive on time, are friendly, but not demanding and use good quality products. They clear up every day without fail. We would certainly recommend them to anyone.
