KT5 Construction - Leatherhead

Amit Arora

Very professional and well planned work carried out for our complete bathroom renovations.
We highly recommend KT5, very good attention to detail and most of all no compromise on quality of work carried out by the specialist work force.
The best thing about the project was the planning phase with number of suggestions.
It was a very old bathroom now completely transformed into a very modern and functional design.

I recently hired KT5 Construction to convert my family’s 4-bedroom property into two flats, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. As I live in a different country, I was initially nervous about managing such a project from afar, especially given the horror stories about cowboy builders. However, KT5 Construction put my fears to rest from the start.

Their project management was exemplary. They provided a detailed project plan with clear timelines and budget estimates, which they adhered to throughout. Communication was consistent and transparent, keeping me informed at every stage despite the distance. They handled all aspects of the project, from coordinating tradespeople and sourcing materials to managing permits and inspections.

The workmanship was on point, with both flats completed to a high standard and excellent attention to detail. KT5 Construction made the entire process remarkably smooth and stress-free, transforming the property efficiently and effectively.

I highly recommend them for anyone considering a major renovation or conversion project.

We used KT5 to renovate a 4 bedroom detached property and build a large patio in the summer and autumn of 2023. We are pleased with the finished product but the project did overrun, taking almost 3 months rather than the expected 7 weeks. Part of this was down to us adding extra work, part of it was caused by workers not turning up and part of it was caused by a healthy dose of builders’ optimism.

All instalment payments were made by us on time or early so it was disappointing that at the 11th hour Kieran required a further substantial payment literally overnight on threat of withdrawing labour from the site. There were obviously no legal grounds for doing this but we were in the throes of moving house and so had no alternative but to pay up. The reason given by Keiran was that we had complained about the fact that we were given two days’ notice that the house would not be habitable for another week and so we had to put all our belongings into storage and find temporary accommodation - the latter paid for by Jim, the project manager, whom KT5 held responsible for the delay. They were apparently concerned that our disgruntlement would lead to us defaulting on the final payment. Needless to say it left a bad taste in the mouth.

Because of the management structure most of our dealings were with Jim. We did have a site visit from Tom and Kieran relatively early on. It was very useful in that Tom pointed out various faults which we would not have been aware of. It would however have been useful to have had a further visit from Tom to check on the finished product but this never happened. Jim was very approachable and never minded answering our many questions, even though half of them probably seemed trivial. He was good at anticipating potential problems and coming up with solutions. He was always polite, cheerful, quick to respond to emails and even when things didn’t go to plan he was willing to take on board our feedback. The project overran considerably but Jim was here the whole of the day before we moved in, supervising the cleaning and mucking in himself. There was inevitably a long list of snags, partly because of pressure to get the job finished and unfortunately Jim was let down by some of the people who were meant to fix them. This ended up with the unexpected benefit of him bringing in his brother in law Nick, a real asset, who worked extremely hard and produced brilliant results in sorting out all the problems. We were so impressed by his attitude and ability that he is coming back next month to do some work for us, so thank you Jim for introducing us! Jim went the extra mile on several occasions, eg giving up his Saturday morning to accompany the electrician to the house when we were on holiday. We were very happy with Jim’s project management and felt he was a real asset to KT5. We know he has now left and hope that the company has found someone with equally good client facing skills to replace him, so important when you’re dealing with builders and other tradespeople and feel like a fish out of water.

These guys did a few mid scale jobs on our house. The three key bits I'd highlight are:

1) quality of work (excellent)
2) communication (again excellent)
3) and a slightly intangible feeling I got from them - in that they took pride in the job and wanted to leave a happy customer.

When we get an extension done it'll be with KT5 - I'd recommend them very highly.

Fantastic experience from start to finish. Kieran and Tom were always available and helpful, liaised with our architect, provided ideas and solutions. They oversaw our build with efficiency and a calmness that made it all seem very easy. We couldn’t be happier.

Fantastic experience with KT5! Renovated my bathroom & bedrooms 5 years ago with great communication & solutions for any bumps in the road. Still looks amazing! Would not hesitate to use them for another renovation project.

Extraordinarily professional and just the nicest people you could possibly imagine!

Fastidious and meticulous from design phase right through to implementation, with a detail focused management team that were always contactable, always onsite and always flexible in approach.

I cannot thank you enough KT5 Construction for all your long hours and hard work!

Would 110% recommend KT5 for any home improvement project! Absolutely chuffed with the service, speed, friendly professionalism and minimal disruption from start to finish! 13 weeks from the day that the scaffolding went up to a completely finished loft conversion with 2 double bedrooms, a shower room and a play area — all finished ready to move in! We have 2 young children and KT5 were fab at accommodating their building work around them. They were also great at giving their ideas to the design of the project and we were so grateful they did! We have ended up with a beautiful, functional space that has really added value to our home in so many ways. Keiran and Tom were so efficient and Jim managed the project and his team with such care and positivity it was lovely having them around the house for the duration of the project, they really took the pressure off of a very daunting construction project.
Thank you KT5!
