Occasionally they would come up with an alternative idea that improved on what had been designed. We would definitely work with them again.

A Loft Conversion can add so much value to your home. An extra room, and often the most impressive room in the house, is always useful and done well, is highly valued by prospective purchasers. Probably not as expensive as you think, a Loft Conversion is one the best improvements you can make to your property. We manage the whole project, planning the access, the natural lighting, and roof support system. We also make sure the loft conversion gets full Building Regulation approval, which is essential when it comes to reselling your home.
In order to successfully deliver your project there are three elements to consider before works can start, Planning Consent, Building Regulations and Party Wall matters. There are three separate sets of legislation, not linked in any way, and you need to consider all three. Many loft conversions, rear extensions and general alterations fall under the Party Wall etc Act 1996. The Act is not there to prevent/stop work, it is there to allow the impact of your works on an neighbours property to be considered before we start work.
Space is at a premium in most homes, especially with a growing family. Maybe you desperately need an extra bedroom, or just fancy a cool new chill out area with a pool table and sofa for entertaining friends. The good news is that a garage conversion can offer a simple, fast and cost-effective way to expand your usable living area at a fraction of the cost of moving. If your garage is looking decidedly unloved, a small amount of work could make a massive difference. In terms of costs, a garage conversion is far less expensive than an home extension, but can actually increase the value of your home by around 10% or more.
Extending, adding or renovating a basement or cellar can add some serious extra living space to your home without drastically modifying the outside. Many people dream of having more space for family time and entertaining, and increasingly homeowners are achieving this by using their cellar as a liveable space underneath their property. Loft spaces are great as they're at the top of your home so lend themselves particularly to being extra bedrooms or bathrooms, whereas a basement is located much nearer your central living space so actually offer a much larger variety of uses.
If you're looking to create some stunning extra living space, increase the value of your home and avoid the hassle and cost of moving, R&B Builders is pleased to offer kitchen extensions in the Oxford and Abingdon areas using our outstanding skills in design, sustainability and craftsmanship. Broadly speaking, there are four main types of extension. The best one for your property depends very much on a variety of factors including what space is available, the age and style of your property, what your budget is and what the local planning laws are in your area.
Earlier this year we had our study and utility room extended. R&B Builders (Jack and his team) were excellent, the job was completed ahead of time, everyone was very polite and hard working, they cleared up at the end of each day leaving everywhere clean and tidy. Since completion we've had a couple of small snagging issues, as happens and have been very impressed with how quickly Brett has organised for someone to come round and fix things. We would highly recommend R & B Builders to anyone looking to have building work done.
Class AAA Building Company, the way how they build whatever the customers want, fast and clean, grate management!
