    Alex Parkinson - Image 1 "From our very first meeting with Jon, his calming, reassuring, and deeply knowledgeable nature made it clear he was the right builder for our project. Jon’s high standards are reflected in his team, who were a pleasure to have in our home. They care about the work as if it were their own property, treating both us and our home with the utmost respect every single day. As with any major project, challenges and delays cropped up, but Jon was quick to suggest practical, well thought out solutions and ensured they were executed without fuss. The whole experience felt organised, collaborative, and genuinely supported. Outside of the core building works, one of the most helpful aspects of working with Jon was his itemised quoting and invoicing. It made it incredibly easy for us to track progress, understand each stage of the build, and stay fully in control of our spend. That level of transparency gave us real confidence from day one. We couldn’t recommend Jon and his team highly enough"

    "R&J did our extension in 2022 + later kitchen floor / kitchen units replacement in 2025 in Hitchin - very happy with the service from end-to-end - honest and direct, and a friendly team. Creative solutions to any problems which came up, speedy once on site, and no real issues / surprises since - it's all solidly built. Even sorted out some awkward roof design problems which the architect left unsolved. Would recommend."

    "Jon and his team did a fantastic job on our single storey extension- so organised and professional. He organised all the trades - roofer, electrician, plumber, decorators etc and he and his team fitted my new kitchen perfectly. A pleasure to have them."
