Another super job
Kevin has recently revitalised a very tired old bedroom, rewiring, fitting a new ceiling, re-plastering and decorating. It's the fourth or fifth time he has done work for us and the service is always the same - efficient, committed and friendly throughout. The budget was kept to, although he did find time to re-silicone a shower tray and fix a few door handles which certainly didn't feature on the estimate. Kevin loves to solve a building problem if you have one, and is happy to discuss the solution. Thanks Kev.

Fantastic work!
I contacted Kevin about redecorating our lounge and hallway, as well as some electrical work. From our first contact until after the work's completion, Kevin was polite, helpful, friendly and honest. He and his uncle, David, arrived promptly every day, putting in 8 hour days, and managed to complete the work earlier than planned! Kevin kept us updated at all stages of the work and was happy to do extra little jobs I kept finding for him! Kevin and David even put in extra hours after they'd completed their work to repair some previous work that was not up to scratch, again without complaint. I would not hesitate to highly recommend Kevin. I will certainly use his company in the future.

Excellent Standard of Work
I appreciated Kevin's efficiency and communication from the beginning. Which made the whole process very easy. He returns calls promptly and is punctual. He and his colleague were friendly and very helpful throughout. I had a large part of my property painted and it looks wonderful. Good quality workmanship, but I thought also their attention to detail was excellent. Plus they cleared up afterwards and moved heavy furniture without being asked. I thought the work was reasonably priced in comparison with others. I would definitely recommend this company.

Leaking shower.
Called Kevin to address the problem of a leaking shower, which was going through to the bedroom below. He was already very busy, but managed to squeeze me in over a couple of weeks. It meant removing a tile to get to the problem, which was a leaking joint to the shower hose. He did a brilliant job managing not to damage any of the adjacent tiles and with the aid of his grout folder, managed to match it perfectly. It now looks as if has never been touched. He then re-plastered the patch of the ceiling below which had to be removed and again did a perfect job. Very happy with the results and for a very reasonable price too. Would happily recommend.

Very happy
Kevin has transformed my once very tired home. He and Dave have painted it throughout. Two lovely new bathrooms, tiling, plumbing and new fittings all to a great standard. He also fitted wooden flooring everywhere downstairs and plastered over some internal brickwork which has improved the look of the room immensely. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable. He finished on time and on budget.

Honest reliable friendly and competent
Kevin and Dave fitted a new kitchen at my mums house which included removing old kitchen units and very old tiles, plastering, decorating and re tiling. Kevin was happy to offer friendly advise and do a few extra jobs that mum decided she would like done as the work was in progress. Kevin also painted/decorated the hallway landing and stairs, the living room and a bedroom that required re-plastering, as well as decorating and fitting a new toilet cistern to the downstairs toilet. From the very beginning the communication from Kevin was excellent and the work was all carried out to a high standard and on schedule within the cost quoted. He and Dave are friendly reliable and their work is very high standard. Best of all mum is over the moon with her lovely new kitchen and newly decorated rooms. I would definitely recommend Kevin and will be contacting him again soon to quote on similar work my daughter wants done.

Another excellent job by Kevin
This is the 6th time I have used Blue Ribbon Construction and it was up to his usual high standard. I had the outside of the house completely redecorated. As usual I discussed the work with Kevin and I was able to discuss ideas as the work went along. He carried out the work on time. I have no reservation in recommending to other people. KeithT

First class work
I have no hesitation recommending Kevin for work. He has done a first class job for me where he made the walls and woodwork look brand new and painted the house throughout. He and Dave were very easy to get along with and kept the place as tidy as possible, I couldn't have wished for a better experience of having work done.

Shower room refurbishment
Kevin recently undertook the complete refurbishment of my ground floor shower room. On assessing the job Kevin made a number of suggestions which were a great improvement on my initial ideas. The job was completed within the timescale given and cost as quoted. Both Kevin and Dave were a pleasure to have in the house and I am totally satisfied with the completed works. I would not hesitate in recommending Kevin and would seek his services for any future works.

Reliable, punctual and good quality work.
Kevin recently completely refurbished my bathroom. In planning the work Kevin visited regularly to help ensure the correct products were chosen, he has a good vision of how things will look and recommended alternatives. The work was completed ahead of the 3 weeks quoted and finished to a very high quality, Kevin has a great eye for detail. I am absolutely thrilled with the end result, it is better than I imagined! I would not hesitate to contact Kevin again for further jobs which are in the pipeline. Thanks Kevin and Dave!

Friendly, reliable and highly skilled
Reliable and prompt, he came for a visit to view the job then came back soon after. When we had got our tiles ready. We were very impressed with the attention to detail, and how neatly the tiles he cut to the perfect shape, including really fiddly small pieces. Friendly chap, very happy!

Which? Local Review
Kevin and Dave have just finished a big makeover of our kitchen diner, involving some building work, preparing and decorating all walls and ceilings, fitting new lighting and power points, and also working on and planning some new fitted cupboards and doors. It all looks terrific and, at short notice, they went on to lay a whole new paving terrace outside when we decided the old one was 'letting down' the new kitchen. Kevin's done loads of good work for us over the years, virtually re-furbishing the whole house. Every time he is fastidiously careful to get things right and as others have noted, will go the extra mile to get things up to his own high professional standards. He is always thoughtful, hard-working and efficient, and a pleasure to have on the case !

Kevin and Dave have once again completed some work for us, and I couldn't be happier. There was lots of painting and a variety of odd jobs including constructing an impressive shelf complete with corbels, all done to a high standard. They both go the extra mile even without being asked. They will be top of my list whenever I need some work done.You can't go wrong if you choose them to do work for you.

High Quality and Reliable Builder
Kevin and his workmate Dave, have completely redecorated our kitchen, dining room and conservatory. They installed a false ceiling in the kitchen to enable the fitting of down lights as well as laying a new laminate floor throughout. In addition they did some tiling and built a large shelf over the oven including corbels. They subsequently prepared and painted all the walls and woodwork. There were numerous other little jobs that they did as they went along. Nothing was ever too much bother, and they even came to our rescue when the installers of our new oven had a problem with the electrics. Kevin dived in and sorted it without hesitation. Kevin was a font of knowledge and offered helpful suggestions when we were unsure of which way to go. We are more than happy with their work and they are fairly priced too. It is comforting to know a reliable and trustworthy builder who we can call upon. In fact we have just asked Kevin to quote for doing some hard landscaping work in our garden.

We have used Kevin several times in the past and have always been totally pleased with the results. Kevin is highly skilled in all the trades needed for work ranging from major construction projects to more modest refurbishment and upgrades. He has previously stripped out and refitted bathrooms, shower-rooms and utility room for us, as well as sundry re-tiling, carpentry and electrical work. This time he has completely removed and replaced patio decking, and we are delighted with the result. As always, the work is of the highest standard. Kevin himself is highly professional, completely trustworthy, extremely reliable and always hard-working. We recommend Kevin without reservation.

We have just had our kitchen and conservatory decorated by Kevin and his colleague David. They did work from ceiling lights to flooring and I can't recommend them enough.Not only did they do what we asked for, but they also had good suggestions of their own. They even managed to complete the work before Christmas. Kevin also came to the rescue when our installers of our new oven hit a snag with the electrics. He sorted it it all out with no fuss. We will definitely be calling on Kevin for future home improvements.

Our best building experience!
The job was the complete stripping down, making good and re-decoration of hall, stairs, landing and room. The work included repairs to ceilings, preparation of hall floor for tiling, replacement of banisters etc., removal and replacement of radiators and re-working light switching for hallway. All work was completed in the time scale agreed and to quote. Kevin and his team were excellent and helpful with very good attention to detail. We will be using Blue Ribbon again.

Kevin has just completed a complete refit of our 80's bathroom. We're delighted with it. As with all clients, I suspect, we did change our minds from time to time opting for extras - underfloor heating for one - so the original budget was mutually and amicably increased but the result is just what we wanted. As previously, Kevin was happy to offer his time and advice as well as undertaking most of the trades himself. We live in a Victorian house with its inherent problems, but Kevin evidently loves problems and seems happy to spend a generous amount of his time solving them. He is committed to undertaking quality work which is safe and reliable and which will not cause ongoing problems. We would wholeheartedly recommend his services.
