Reviews

We highly recommend Jim Alcock Builders as they are a team of reliable, punctual and highly skilled builders who have delivered an incredible transformation to our home. Their combined knowledge, skills and strong work ethic makes them excellent builders achieving amazing results. Jim has gone above and beyond to give us our dream home from continuous hard work, determination and dedication to our job. Jim, Craig and Andy's work is admirable and every stage of the construction of our loft conversion was achieved to the highest of standards. It has been a privilege to have such a great team of builders working daily who are very professional, friendly and trustworthy. All material costs were well within budget and Jim worked accurately to achieve his original quote for his labour cost which we were really pleased with. We are over the moon with the cost as we now have two additional rooms which we very much needed and we haven't had to move which is a big relief. We are so grateful and fortunate to have Jim Alcock Builders craft two spacious rooms with bespoke designs and stunning features within the woodwork and design. The level of thought that went into this build is what makes Jim one of a kind from additional storage ideas, inkeeping staircase to match our existing spindles, the ideas for layout and the consideration of led light strip for the staircase below. Due to the large amount of work involved from installing steel beams, flooring and dormer, we were impressed with the speed and precision that Jim Alcock Builders dedicated to our job. We couldn't be happier and we thank them all for such a great experience having building work completed by them. It has been enjoyable seeing our loft transformed into an amazing living space and if we ever hear of anyone needing a competent, honest and professional builder, we will always recommend Jim Alcock.

I booked Jim and Craig to build our extension as a result of the favourable reviews they had received - and I am happy to add to those. They provide a core building service themselves and coordinate other specialist trades where necessary - I accepted Jim's recommendations on the whole and they proved to be good ones though getting time from the specialist trades has not been easy as they are so busy. Jim and Craig built our block and mortar extension quickly and well and were a pleasure to have around. We are very happy with the work they have done and would be happy to recommend them to others.

What can we say about Jim Alcock Property Renovation and Development, he rescued us when our builder who was meant to be carrying out our loft conversion decided to retire. We were recommended Jim by an estate agent friend in Malvern who said that Jim is a ???sweetie??? and that everyone loves him. He came round one evening and enthused about the project. The beauty of Jim is that he offers more than most builders, he listens to what you want to do but shows his expertise when he needs to. Jim and Craig are a double act that gets the job done, but in a way that makes you feel like they really enjoy helping dreams come true. We had a vision of what our house would look like but when it became a reality it was 100 times better. Jim project manages the whole build, coordinating with different elements of the build, although he has all of the elements covered we were still in control and could influence the build throughout, but Jim, Craig and Andy made you feel like they knew how to make everything come together in the most perfect way. Jim arranged for the roof to be removed, made water tight and then rebuilt with a new dorma window on the front of the house, saving money by reusing the Welsh Slate, Mike was an absolute star, climbing up on the roof during one of the storm days to make certain that the water would not come into the house. As part of the build the house needed the gable wall to be repaired and also be insulated from the outside, Jim arranged for a specialist contractor to carry out the insulation and silicon rendering to be placed on the outside wall. They also repaired some of the other walls, using a pebbledash render, we were so impressed with the outcome, the wall blended into the rest of the white pebbledash of our house and our three neighbours houses. It was imperative that the look was maintained, we were so impressed and can already feel the benefit of the warmth of the house. Jim arranged for the same contractors to also undertook the plastering internally as well, we were so impressed with the finish and helped to lift all of the rooms. We are so impressed with the house, Jim, Craig and Andy worked miracles, completing the build within 5 week, with only plumbing and final electrics still to be completed. Jim allowed us to use our family friend as the electrician, so reducing the cost of the build for us. Jim costed the project at the start, and the work has come in within budget but the finish is amazing. We cannot recommend Jim enough, he has exceeded all of our expectations, we are over the moon, the house was in a perfect location, with stunning views of the Malverns, but the interior now is as stunning as the outside views. If you want a job done to the highest standard, with people that care and who are brilliant at what they do, then Jim and Craig are the men for the job, they bring the best people in to support the build but take all the worry out of it for you.

I am extremely pleased with the work Jim and Craig did on my two-story extension. Their communication was excellent???Jim responded promptly to all my messages???and they offered sound, trustworthy advice throughout the project. They made the entire process far more enjoyable than I had anticipated, and it was a pleasure to have them around. I???m absolutely delighted with the final result and would highly recommend them to anyone. I hope to work with them again in the future on another extension and have already recommended them to others.

Jim fitted a brand new bathroom for me, he arrived with his colleague on 2nd January and completely stripped the old bathroom out, fitted a new pipe to fix a leak and then fitted aqua boards, tiles, new fixtures and fittings. A really lovely man, he offered advice and even did a few things extra to make it look really nice, he took a lot of pride in his work. I cannot recommend this guy enough, he arrived prompt every morning and worked tirelessly each day to have the bathroom fitted as quick as possible, but without rushing, he wanted us to be back to normal with a new bathroom as quickly as possible. Jim was easy to talk to, was available for advice and we look forward to booking him again to fit a new Kitchen later in the year.
