EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. LEJ did a fantastic loft extension which was completed recently. Building works are a big upheaval for a household with 2 kids and pets; Louis, Charlie and Harry put us at ease quickly, they were trustworthy, polite and professional. They are experienced and answered questions promptly and explained processes in detail when needed; they gave us choice when they could and enough time to make important decisions so that we got the layout that suited our taste and would fit our furniture. The work was finished on time and were very tidy throughout. We are thrilled with the results, everthing finished to high standard, plastering, tiling, painting, roofing all done so well. I would recommend LEJ to anyone considering building works. .Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service, would use againPosted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently hired LEJ Building for a ground floor rear extension and a through lounge conversion, and we’re extremely pleased with the outcome. From the outset, communication was clear and consistent. The team took the time to understand our vision, offering helpful advice and practical solutions that enhanced the final design. They were transparent about timelines and costs, which helped us plan around the work with minimal disruption. The build itself was completed to a high standard. The extension has completely transformed our ground floor, giving us a bright, open-plan kitchen and dining space that flows beautifully into the lounge area. The through lounge conversion was handled with care and precision, seamlessly integrating the old and new spaces. What really stood out was the professionalism of the LEJ team. They were punctual, tidy, and respectful throughout the project. Any issues that arose were dealt with promptly, and we always felt like our home was in good hands. Overall, we’re thrilled with the results and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend LEJ Building to anyone looking for reliable builders who deliver high-quality work with a personal touch.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Louis was highly professional in all his interactions, and was careful and considerate in his work approach. We completed repairs to our downstairs WC which involved re-laying floorboards, skirting, flooring and re-installing the toilet. An excellent finish and we would not hesitate to recommend Louis!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Love these guys so much! Felt like having friends over to stay. And what a beautiful job!!! My kitchen is more gorgeous than I could have ever imagined, thank you Louis, Charlie and Harry x x x the kids will forever remember the arm wrestles ❤️Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Well what can I say about Louis, Charlie and Harry. They made a dream come true. These guys were tasked to change an out dated kitchen to a piece of art and that's what they did. Their work is of a real high standard and we're attentive to all that was needed. Even when we had some suggestions, they were open and honest about them but also very understanding to what we wanted. We now have a kitchen to be proud of. Would recommend with no hesitations. Thank you guys.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An excellent building firm. Very reliable and professional.

On time, tide and very polite staff, the guys go above and beyond to support with all requests . Love my paving and green house. Thank you 🙏Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Charlie and Louis were courteous and polite, prompt with their timekeeping and their quote was competitively priced. The workmanship was of an excellent standard and would happily ask them to quote for future works. They also dealt with the design aspect of my kitchen with their kitchen designer which really helped me as my new layout is much preferred.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had 3 different renovations done by LEJ building, a small kitchen revamp, a full downstairs extension and the latest one being a loft conversion, and we couldn’t be more pleased. Louis and Charlie are professional, reliable, tidy, efficient and polite. The quality of the work is outstanding and they have real craftsmanship. We get a lot of compliments for both our downstairs kitchen extension and now our loft conversion. There’s practically nothing these guys cannot do and the job is always of the highest standards. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for any type of home renovation, from small jobs to big conversions. With LEJ building you are in safe hands.
