John, Gary, Flam, Clare, Rob and the entire team made the building process seamless.

From our first meeting to the architectural drawings and a well-structured payment plan, every stage was handled with absolute precision. Any minor issues or changes during the build were swiftly addressed.

Finding a reliable build team has been challenging, but now that we've discovered Add A Room, we feel confident in planning our next project with them.

Highly Recommend, I had a great experience.

Gary and Jon were honest and clear from first visit to quote. They arranged for us to see a local job they’d completed, which helped relax my nerves. You’re about to spend alot of money, so you want to get to trust the people you select to do the work.

They were able to start the job quickly, which was great. Johnny their builder was fantastic, really calm and professional. He is the hardest working builder I’ve ever met. We were so pleased with his work. And he was extremely clean and tidy.

The job was completed on time and close to the quote (there was one issue with the way our boiler was fitted).

I would recommend using them based on my experience.

Before we contacted Add a Room, we did a lot of research on other local companies.

Add a Room gave us a good price for a garage conversion. Once agreed, they were professional throughout.

Each step of the way they kept us informed and answered any queries promptly.

I highly recommend Add a Room and would most certainly use them again.

Thanks for everything Gary, Jon, Jon and Clare - great team work.

My wife and I did quite a bit of research as there is a wide range of companies or independent builders out there. However in the end we went with add a room as they were recommended by 2 friends who have done work with them. Add a room provided a competitive quote compared to all the other companies we worked with and delivered a great service. We had them build an extension to our edwardian terrace, rewire the ground floor, and build a cloak room under the stairs.There were different delays along the way due to things we ordered. However add a room were very flexible in accommodating these changes. Their team always showed up on time, and left the site tidy at the end of the day. I would also highly recommend our project lead (Artan). He is lovely to work with, very honest, and easily reachable.

We used Add a Room for a single storey bungalow extension in 2021. From the first visit to the final sign off Add a Room were professional, efficient and very helpful. Jon, Gary, Steve and the team have done a wonderful job with the extension and kitchen fit. We are incredibly happy with the end result which our friends and family agree has been very professionally done. From the plans to the build itself, the external render to the floor fit, it has has all been done to a quality standard. Thank you for transforming our home for us!

We decided to extend our house with a large 6 x 6.2 metre kitchen / dining room extension. Typical bifold doors across the back with a large lantern and crown roof. The existing kitchen / dining room would be split to become a utility on one side, a downstairs shower room on the other with a new hallway in between leading to the new extension.

I asked AddaRoom to quote for the job, what I did not tell them was 2 years earlier they built an extension for my daughter and what an excellent job that was.

AddaRoom quoted from planning to full build (excluding the kitchen and utility fit out), as this was left to a bespoke kitchen company to do. AddaRoom did fully fit out the downstairs shower room and I am sure they would have had absolutely no issues fitting out the kitchen and utility also.

Gary from AddaRoom carried out a site survey, we exchanged ideas and we then received a competitive quotation. I asked Gary to proceed. Plans were lodged very efficiently with the council and after consultation passed very quickly. They had a first class team lead by Artan who arrived shortly after planning approval. Wow what excellent contractors AddaRoom have. Every single day, Artan and his men would arrived at 08.00 and would leave when that days work was complete. 5-6-7 pm Etc. worked every Saturday often to 5pm also. Every single trade from bricklayers/ plasters/ plumbers / electricians / gas fitters / tilers all had the same work ethic. I can sum this up…at 6pm the plumber had an issue with my boiler and Artan had to drag him out at 8pm as the plumber did not want to leave us without hot water for one night. The problem was sorted by 09.00 hrs the following day. Every night the house was secured and completely tidied.

As this work was progressing well ahead of schedule, I asked AddaRoom if they could submit plans to convert my garage in to an office. Basically I had such confidence in AddaRoom I wanted to keep their men on site. Artan carried on with the main build which included substantial block work / RSJs / timber for a tiled crown roof (that was some fine engineering that went in to my roof !).

As the extension was nearing completion and planning approval was passed for the garage conversion AddaRooms team stayed on site and completed that project also.

During the whole process the Directors at AddaRoom conducted regular checks to ensure the project was on track and within budget. The budget only changed when I asked for additional work to be carried out.

This was a substantial project carried out by an outstanding company. Have no hesitation recommending AddaRoom and their team of first class contractors.

On the whole I had a good experience. With Add A Room.
The first visit with Gary was really great he made the impossible seem possible and he help my long term dream come true.
My local authority planning department was a complete nightmare and the delay caused a price increase before my plans was agreed. Add A Room was empathetic and we negotiated this.
Most of all Add A Room sent me The Master Builder Artan. He and his team was skilful knowledge and left my home safe and secure and tidy every day. They kept to time and it was a miracle the way they mocked down
the old and built the new. they have made my home beautiful. Thank you Artan!
Alan was helpful too a very skilful man.
Thanks again Add A Room and Artan for making my dreams come true!
