Ollie did a great job with our kitchen renovation. He was honest, timely, easy to work with and obviously cares about doing the work to a high standard. Everything was completed on time, the subcontractors used were all excellent, and the kitchen looks fantastic. We are thrilled and will definitely be using Ollie again in the future.

We renovated the ground floor of our house including removing a wall and installing a new kitchen. Ollie planned a timeline for us and got to work, helping with changes along the way, and when we were unsure of what to do or facing a challenge, gave us options for the way forward. Most importantly he comes across like a straight shooter who is interested in doing a good job that is going to last. We will be calling upon his services again.

All round very good, very helpful, and we are happy to recommend him to anyone!

After moving to Bath fairly recently and with plans to renovate and extend our home we were in need of a quality builder and home developer. From our first meeting with Ollie we knew that we had found an honest, highly qualified property developer; he quickly understood both what we wanted and were hoping to achieve and has worked meticulously to help us achieve that. Ollie approached the project with such care to detail it felt like he was treating it as if it were his own home, we couldn’t have asked for more and are beyond thrilled with the final results. He really has been exceptional as has his wider team with a special thanks to Pete who has worked tirelessly alongside Ollie throughout. We really couldn’t recommend him enough, if we do ever have any future work on our home we’ll certainly be looking no further than The Ugly Duckling Building Company. Thank you so much for helping us make a beautiful home, we couldn’t have done it without you.

Ollie and his team carried out renovations at our house - most notably converting a sizeable farm outbuilding into a habitable space. From the first meeting, I was particularly happy with Ollie's approach and great communication with us, which has all too often been missing from previous experiences of building works. It was really easy to work with Ollie and collaborate on the end results - he is very professional and knowledgeable but is also great at talking through the logistics of the work and any wish lists. In this regard, I really appreciated Ollie's versatile approach to attend to the smaller tasks as well as the major renovation of the outbuilding. I would certainly recommend Ollie and his team and would not hesitate to use him again for any further work.

Ollie and team renovated our grade II home just south of Bath. We struggled to find a suitable builder for our project before coming across the Ugly Duckling Building Co. Ollie was professional, prompt and a great communicator from the start.
He provided a detailed breakdown of the cost of the project, providing a max price + contingency for the renovation which provided peace of mind.
The works started and finished on time and the team were courteous throughout.
Challenges encountered were talked through and clear options provided so we felt informed when needing to make decisions.
Ollie also suggested some great options when it came to choosing flooring, kitchens, etc.
We would absolutely recommend the Ugly Duckling Building Co.

A fantastic building company and one I would highly recommend. They refurbished our new house for us and we are thrilled with the results. Ollie is very professional and experienced and ensures work is done to a high standard. We would want to use Ugly Duckling again for any future building work we require. Thank you!
