Report
Huge thanks to Mat and Andy. Having been badly let down by our previous builders, it is to Mat's credit that I felt so confident in proceeding with Genuine Builders. Mat has been open and honest regarding every aspect of the work, which we felt was very reasonably priced. Both Mat and Andy were a pleasure to have around and kept everything immaculately clean and tidy! Mat has also shown impressive patience in fielding my numerous requests for quotes of different jobs! Thanks so much to both of you.
