Full house refurbishment and double extension
Customer Service
Quality

Mark and his team were brilliant from start to finish. They completed our full house refurbishment on time and in budget. All the team were incredibly friendly and prided themselves on their exceptional quality work. Mark’s advice throughout was always practical and well thought through. No request was too small for him and the team. We really appreciated having all the trades together (plumber, electrician, carpenter) so there was no waiting or coordination needed from our side. We would have no hesitation in highly recommending Mark and team!

Mark and his team are superb. They built our extension 6 years ago and they were my #1 choice when I wanted an office cleared, the ceiling replaced, new lighting fitted and the room decorated from top to bottom. Everyone was friendly, tidy, prompt and did what they said they would do. Nothing was added to the quote unless I asked for it. Overall, absolutely excellent.

We have used R O. Allum previously and did not hesitate to get them back for the garage conversation which included a bedroom, shower room and utility room. The team were all very friendly and polite and turned up every day on the dot. Their work was excellent and we would have no hesitation in recomnending them to people looking for a competitive quote and 5 star service

We were recommended RO Allum by a friend and are very happy to pass on the recommendation. We needed two internal walls and a fireplace removed, RSJs added, some stud work and a new kitchen fitted. Mark and his team started on time and completed the job to a very high standard. All tradespeople on site were friendly and punctual and were flexible with changes to the plan. Any unexpected issues were fixed without fuss. The final cost matched the quote so no nasty surprises. We would be very happy to use Mark and RO Allum again

We would highly recommend R O Allum. We found them to be reliable, trustworthy and their standard of work was of a high standard. We extended our kitchen and the team were helpful and friendly and gave us good solid advice. We felt safe in their hands and confident that they knew what they were doing and we never had any issues. We also felt comfortable in asking questions and they were always to hand if if we needed anything at all. We would be happy to show anyone the work that was carried out at our home to demonstrate their exceptional quality of work.

We used R O Allum last year to undertake internal decorating works when we moved into our house. Their work was of very good quality and their staff could not have been more helpful. They delivered everything we needed to a high standard. In recent weeks we decided to do some hard landscaping in our garden and had no hesitation in offering the work to Mark at R O Allum after our previous experience. They removed old concrete and decking, dug out additional flower bed space, laid some turf, a new patio and path and painted the fence. We are very pleased indeed with the results and the price was competitive. Our garden was always left clean and tidy, the team were onsite early every morning and everyone who came was introduced by name if I was there, each of them friendly, pleasant, polite and they just got on with it. We always feel able to trust the Allum team on our property if we are not there which is a big plus. We would certainly recommend R O Allum and Sons.

I have just waved goodbye to the team and couldn't be happier. The quote was competitive and the team were courteous, punctual and professional. In retrospect we probably should have moved out but it is easy to be wise after the event. I know that we were in the way but the guys tried their best to ensure that our home was as habitable as possible. The big plus is that most of the work is 'in house' therefore there is no passing the buck to subcontractors nor missing days, waiting for the right tradesman to turn up - someone was here every day often 8 +, all intent on getting the job done as quickly as possible but without compromising quality. No hidden surprises in terms of invoicing and great communication all the way through... Thankyou

From first contact to last Mark and the team were fantastic. We had an external wall around our garden built and the workmanship is great. So many compliments from passers by and neighbours. Clean, friendly and always professional. They always turned up when they said they would and finished all work on time. Highly recommended at a very competitive cost as well

A friend recommended R.O Allum & Sons to replace our patio. From the initial enquiry through to completion of the work they were competitive, friendly and professional. The works were undertaken with minimal disruption to the family. The workers were hard working, friendly, clean / tidy and took a pride in their work. They continually ensured we were happy throughout the duration of the works. The result is excellent and I would highly recommend them to others. Thank you, Paul and Emma
