Hodgson Group Ltd

Hodgson’s contracted for removing old pebble dash which was flaking and leaking and at their recommendation replacing with new covering by Webersil which included external wall insulation. We subsequently added a complete roof replacement, new guttering and front porch to the contract. Aaron, the owner of the company, was involved at each stage of the process with us and guided us through each step. He set up a WhatsApp group and added his various teams to it (Roof, Walls etc). They communicated and sent photos/videos as each stage was completed. If we had any concerns they were dealt with either thorough the app or by phone. All the Hodgson’s team members were considerate and friendly, going beyond what was contracted for to satisfy us. We have a terrace property and during the process of removing the pebble dash there were issues with neighbouring properties however Aaron personally resolved these with the neighbours, communicating directly with them and closed them out to their satisfaction. Due to restrictions Covid slowed down the work but did not stop it. We would have no hesitation in recommending this company for major work projects and will use them again in future.

We were pleased with the work carried out to repair several issues with our roof and chimney stack. Communication with Aaron was really easy and the men on site were friendly, efficient and left everything looking really tidy. A great job and would recommend Hodgson and Son for any similar job.

Aaron and his team lived up to the expectations created during the tender process. The use of a WhatsApp group for the project from the outset meant his team fully understood what the scope, timescales and pricing for the works agreed. The programme was set at 10 weeks and even with a number of variations adding work, the space was completed in 9 weeks! The quality of the works and the manner in which the team went about them was top drawer - the can do attitude and respect for the client always on show throughout. His team were very considerate and that was demonstrated by the comments we had from neighbours who were highly complimentary of their professionalism. They also commented on the fact that the works seem to be completed very quickly and with a minimum of fuss and disruption to others in the street (something I would echo). Above all, he and his team remained focused on what needed to be done and the quality of product we wanted. Great experience given the nature of the works involved.

Aaron's professionalism shines through, from the initial quote (which was very detailed and proved to be accurate) right through to the final touches. Most of the work took place during the Coronavirus outbreak, meaning we couldn't visit the site, but Aaron kept in very regular contact, sending us videos of progress. Whenever issues did crop up, we found his advice invaluable, he took time to find affordable options for us and we have ended up with the home of our dreams. Aaron and his team worked quickly, cleanly and the work was of such a high standard that we have no hesitation in recommending them to friends and family. Many of our neighbours even commented on how well they communicated with them and how considerate they were during the build. The work was finished ahead of schedule, despite the limitations imposed by lockdown and without compromising quality. In all, they did an exceptional job in extraordinary times.

Aaron said to us on his first visit if you have any concerns contact me and he was always available and visited the site at least once a week. We returned home one evening at 9.00pm to find we had no heating, so we phoned Aaron, he came to the house and had resolved the problem by 10.00pm! Nothing was too much trouble for Aaron. The work and his trades people were exemplary and the job was completed on time, despite the COVID19 restrictions.

We had a large complex two level extension put on our property. Hodgson set a clear budget at the start and communicated with us clearly throughout so there were no unexpected surprises. They worked really well with our other contractors (e.g. the company that fitted out bifold doors) and were always cheerful and hard working. Aaron took personal responsibility for getting the job done, met with us regularly and followed up on concerns or issues. We had some minor snagging work which was done efficiently and to the same high standard. In short the team were excellent to work with - considerate, thoughtful, hard working and he finished product was exceptionally high quality.

Aaron’s team did a great job on our loft conversion and bathroom refit. The tradespeople did high quality work (particularly impressed with the bathroom tiling) and the job ran to schedule. What was also great was the way I was consulted throughout the project and also received various good suggestions to improve on the architect’s plans. While the job was finished on time, there were of course various snags and the team dealt with them well. Aaron also got involved at the end to make sure everything was up to standards. There were a few issues with work being needed on our downstairs neighbours ceiling etc as a result of damage but it was all dealt with well. Overall, a great job and would recommend.

This was a major renovation of our flat, which took place while we were overseas. Hodgson's did a fantastic job from the very beginning of the process, their quote was clear and comprehensive, they identified potential issues and discussed them with us well in advance, worked quickly and kept us informed. We would strongly recommend them both for the quality of their work and their customer service.

Aaron Hodgson and his company completed a project for us last year (Kitchen/bathroom refurbishment). He and his team impressed us with their professional and courteous approach to the work. When we suffered a burst pipe over the week end that emergency plumbers were unable to help due to having to remove a fitted cupboard we approached Aaron for urgent assistance. He couldn't have been more helpful and despite being on holiday contacted us on a number of occasions to reassure us and organised a team for first thing on Monday. They arrived early and removed the cupboard and fixed the issue within two hours. Both persons were courteous and committed to completing the repair in a timely manner. They cleaned up and removed all signs of the work. Highly Recommended!

Aaron and his team renovated my three bedroom flat which included: the removal of two internal walls; fitting a new kitchen and bathroom; re-wiring; new skirting boards, doors and window sills; plastering and decoration throughout. The work was done to the agreed budget and within the time schedule. Any additional work was costed and agreed before it was carried out. A schedule was agreed beforehand and once the job was underway there were weekly meetings & reports. The communication was good and the WhatsApp group particularly effective. Once the work was completed the flat was left to settle for a few weeks and then they came back for a couple of days to complete the snagging, fill in cracks etc. I had never had any building work done in the flat and was apprehensive about the upheaval, things I hadn’t anticipated and how my vision of the flat would translate. Aaron oversaw the project and was a reassuring & supportive presence throughout the process, committed to my vision but also providing constructive suggestions to enhance it. The work is of a high standard, the team conscientious and the approach to unexpected challenges is to find the solution rather than dwelling on the problem. I love my ‘new’ flat and would not hesitate to recommend the company.
