JR Renovations

We first engaged JR Renovations in 2007, and since then have had extensive work carried out ranging from decoration, plasterwork, restoration of period features, carpentry, plumbing and tiling to large scale structural extension, chimney breast removal and fitting of a kitchen. Without exception, every job undertaken has been completed to an exceptional standard. They are trustworthy and conscientious, leaving the property clean and tidy at the end of each day, even in the middle of a job. When problems arise, they are solved ingeniously and without drama. I can highly recommend this company.

Roman and his assistant carried out some fairly extensive work in my front room and front hall. This included pulling up the original floorboards, restoring the subfloor and joists as necessary, fitting underfloor insulation, and re-laying the original boards. They also removed an old gas fire and hearth, replacing it with a restored period fireplace, mantel and hearth. They removed the dado rail and replastered, removed the old skirting boards and fitted new ones, and completely restored the understairs cupboard in the front hall. Finally, they cleaned and scrubbed the original floorboards - which were covered in plaster and years of dust and dirt - to reveal a beautiful patina. Roman and his assistant took the utmost care with my property and left the work area neat and tidy every night. He understood exactly the look that I was going for - I really felt that I was working with a craftsman rather than a builder. Roman also repaired a vintage chair for me! I was delighted with the way the room turned out and wouldn't hesitate to get Roman in again.

We had a downstairs toilet fitted under the stairs. The company was reliable . Turned up every day and on time and often worked late into the evening if a task wasn?t finished. They were very polite friendly and very tidy - clearing up at the end of each day. They were also very trustworthy and could left in the house to do the work.The standard of work was high with high quality finish. We are very pleased with the whole experience and the final result

I have had two houses totally gutted and renovated since I moved to London 12 years ago. The first was a large 5-bedroomed Victorian house which Roman completely restored to its original glory, including beautiful tessellated tiles on the very large kitchen floor, and the replacement of plaster mouldings on the hallway ceiling and the ceilings of all reception rooms. Ten years later when I moved to a modern house (70s build) Roman one again gutted the property from the loft downwards completely transforming the house. This involved boarding the loft and fitting lighting, plastering and decorating five bedrooms and fitting Art Deco lighting, two bathrooms (al plumbing), and creating a very large loft-type family room on the ground floor with tastefully designed fitted kitchen with all appliances, dining area, and glassed conservatory leading into the garden. The most recent work Roman did was to replace fencing to our front 'cottage-type' garden and provide a gate - all custom-made by Roman. It is important to say that as general maintenance work has been needed we have always called on him. Essentially a job is worth doing to him irrespective of whether it is the renovation of an entire property over a number of months, or a small job lasting a couple of days. Roman and his team are always clean and courteous. At the end of every day they put the vacuum on and ensure the house is back to a liveable space overnight. Very few builders do that. I can't recommend him enough.

We are very happy to recommend JR Renovations and would not hesitate to use them again. Roman and his team member Makary did exactly as promised, and more, in replacing a fence that proved a more difficult job than anticipated. They were hard working, professional and a pleasure to employ.

Roman and his team refurbished our old terraced house. The work went smoothly and quickly. We didn't need to worry about anything and we were well informed about each stage of the building works. Overall, very good work ethic and always positive, we would definitely recommend Roman.

We chose Roman to demolish our garage and rebuild it into a home office/ gym on the strength of positive comments on this website, and now it's finished we're very glad we did. Roman and his team were a pleasure to work with and they clearly cared about doing a good job. The quality of work was to a high standard and Roman was flexible enough to take on additional work requested by us along the way which were not in the original quote. In terms of value for money, the project was delivered in line with the quotation. We were not asked to pay for any of the work up-front, but did pay for some of the materials as work progressed which was fair. We would be happy to use Roman (JV Renovations) again and will not hesitate to recommend him to friends and family.

Roman and his team did a great job removing about 170 feet of old fence and replacing it with a new fence with concrete posts and gravel boards. They were efficient, worked very hard and took great care not to damage any plants which wasn't easy considering the amount of excavation and rubble removal thay had to do. They overcame problems and obstacles with ease and were very friendly and cheerful throughout. I am very pleased with the results and cannot recommend Roman's service and team too highly. I shall not hesitate to use them in the future.

We had a ceiling leak in our kitchen. Roman and co. gave us a very competitive quote. Carried out the work in a very short period of time and to a very high standard. We can highly recommend him and his team.

Roman and his team have just finished a bathroom renovation which was quite extensive as it involved moving several underfloor pipes to allow for a new layout. I also had some work done on creaky stairs that needed support. The whole job was done to an extremely high standard with any problems that occurred quickly being resolved by Roman's clever solutions. I was always kept informed of progress as the work went on. Roman, Matt and Adrian are extremely polite, friendly and trustworthy. I had no concerns about giving them a set of keys for when I was out. At the end of the project, the house was left spotless, they even jet washed the front path that had become dirty with plaster, saw dust, etc. I am so pleased with the work and would not hesitate to recommend Roman and I will certainly use him again for future work.
