We are extremely happy that we selected Extended Space to build our Garden Room (not your average shape or size either). Andy and his team were fantastic from day one. They were hard working, conscientious, undertook the work to a very good standard and were willing to work with some different products. They knew what they were doing, they proved to be professionals and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. We are looking forward to working with them again when we commence the refurbishment and extension of our home.

Extended space have just done all the carpentry on a new build house for me and I must say he was very efficient always on time and his workmanship was of a very high standard. I would highly recommend him and I will defiantly be using him again.
