We build extensions for residential properties and the size can vary from a front porch to a double storey extension, this is often with the client still residing in the main property. In this event, it is important that the client is still able to continue living at the property and that disruption is kept to a minimum.

Having an extension is very often a messy and noisy affair. Some of this is impossible to avoid, but the team try and make it as pleasant experience as possible. Leaving the site clean and tidy at the end of the day is one way in which the team endeavour to make life slightly more bearable for the client.

We are registered members of the National House Building Council. This means that when we are constructing a new building, it is inspected not only by the Local Council, but also by an inspector from the NHBC to check that it is built to rigorous standards laid down by both these bodies.

When registered with NHBC, the building is then under guarantee for a 10 year period which starts on completion of the property. This is to give the client peace of mind that the workmanship will be rigorously checked and that they have a guarantee should anything go wrong in the future.

It is important that when a client is taking part in such a major investment as a new home, they can have confidence in the builder that they have instructed to do the work.

These are often an addition which can add an attractive feature to the overall look of a property. Conservatories are often seen as a way of adding another downstairs room where perhaps members of the family can escape to for some peace and quiet.

If a conservatory is large, then a planning application has to be made to the local council. In this case G & G can help to put the client in touch with someone to have plans drawn and complete the necessary paperwork.

We use tried and trusted suppliers for our conservatories. We only wish to supply the client with a high quality product that they can have faith in.

The trend today is for white UPVC windows, fascias and guttering. Clients deciding to have such work done often already know what they want in the way of design, but rely on the chosen contractor to supply a good product which will last. For this side of the business G & G Builders are a registered FENSA installer. This means that a certificate will be issued to the client for their records and to enable them to sell their property in the future should they wish to do so.

Refurbishments to property can be very disruptive and intrusive work to have carried out. It is important that the client is happy and feels confident in the tradesmen that carry out such work. The team try to make the client feel at ease in their presence and not that they are merely visitors for the duration of the work who are tolerated. It is important for all concerned that the work is carried out efficiently and quickly to a very high standard.
