Review by Lou
on 26th June 2026
"Highly recommended kind, helpful builder and assistant. Very helpful secretary as well. They were easy to be around and tidied up each day. John is very helpful and knowledgeable and will support anyone to make good decisions where they are a bit unsure of the best choices. This is why I can't recommend John highly enough, I felt I could trust that the job would be completed well and in a thorough way and it was. As a woman on my own it was important that I felt comfortable. Many thanks for this as well as the excellent results in dealing with a complex project."

John - Image 1 "I chose J Gibson builders to upgrade a block built workshop into an upmarket insulated garden room with a washroom. It seems a gamble selecting someone online for an expensive item especially when paying a portion up front but John said "Don't worry, I'm a man of my word, old school"- and he is. John gave a great quote, reusing materials from the existing workshop where possible. The end result was exactly what I wanted and looks fantastic, with superb windows and bifold doors- see pic. John and Dan focussed on my job throughout and were onsite each day unless rained off, tidying up each day before leaving. Comms were on-site with John/Dan and via email with Frances. They used their experience to tackle the various hurdles that emerged and delivered a great result. John and Dan tackled the build, drainage, carpentry and plastering. I separately arranged electrician, the building regs/planning, finishing and painting. Many thanks to John and Dan."
