“Friends and family are blown away! We decided to replace our old conservatory with an extension and remove a fireplace to create a spacious, bright room with a dining and seating area. After meeting Jon in October, we quickly agreed on a plan. The team completed the job on time, with no surprises, impressing us with their work ethic, skill, and courtesy. The quality of the work is among the best I’ve seen, and it was a pleasure working with Charlie and Dhruvi, who promptly addressed any concerns. We’re thrilled with the final result and can’t wait to enjoy this fantastic new space with our family.”

“We recently had our kitchen renovated. After being introduced to Mahmoud and his team by Janam, they did an excellent job with the kitchen installation. The team consistently went above and beyond, and Janam was diligent in following up throughout the process. The renovation took just over a month, and we’re very happy with the outcome.”

“After reading positive reviews, we chose Raynes Construction to renovate our kitchen and adjust the layout of a ground-floor toilet. They connected us with the best-suited contractor for our needs and budget, offering additional supplier options when needed. Despite some understandable challenges during the project, everything was managed efficiently and on schedule. We’re very satisfied with the service provided by Raynes and the meticulous work done by Mahmoud’s team. Janam’s detailed management kept everything on track. We feel fortunate to have worked with them and highly recommend their services.”

Testimonials
Whilst we didn’t proceed with our project due to external factors- we found Raynes Construction great to deal with. Charlie was very knowledgeable , personable and pulled together a very impressive quote with good detail. Wouldn’t hesitate to contact again.
All works were completed to a very high standard, within budget and on time. We are very pleased with the end result and would be very happy to recommend Raynes Construction.
I found Raynes Construction to be conscientious diligent builders who stand out from the rest, they completed my loft extension within a 5 week time frame from start to finish, would use again & fully recommend them!
RPC worked brilliantly for us. They came in and re-laid the beams in the floor of our loft conversion after the original builders hadn’t done the job correctly. They were timely, courteous and very tidy, also providing a good value for money quote. I’d recommend using them for any type of building project and we would definitely use them again.
They did a great work with my house. I wanted to some reconstruction and called this company. Their professionals exceeded my expectations. The house looks great!
Great company with great service!!!! Highly recommend and LOCAL!!!!!
