Found an excellent builder for our rear extension in Chorlton within 48 hours. The whole process from quote to completion was seamless. Would absolutely recommend.

Used BestBuilders to find a bathroom fitter near Manchester. Four bids, all itemised the way the spec asked for, picked the mid-priced option for the itemised waterproofing detail. Schedule slipped two days because of a vanity unit delivery delay - flagged on day one. Final invoice came in 2% under quote.

Great kitchen renovation in Stockport. The fitter was skilled and tidy. Minor delay due to tile delivery but BestBuilders kept us informed throughout. Very happy.
