For anyone looking for a top quality company then Aspire is definitely for you. These guys are excellent, they do what they say and manage any project end to end. They have recently extended my kitchen and the end product is in my opinion first class and completed in a highly coordinated way with customer service and quality of work uppermost. The whole Aspire team are skilled professionals who can be relied upon to do what they say and to a very high standard. I cannot recommend Aspire too highly. Excellent company so pleased to have found them, they… [read more]

Aspire recently fitted my new kitchen and I have been very happy with the whole process. They ripped out and disposed of the old one, only brought what they needed onto site when they needed it so my house wasn’t full of boxes and tidied up after themselves when they left. The whole crew were always polite and friendly. Most particularly, they seemed to take pride in producing a great finish to the whole job. All in all, it was a relatively painless experience with a very satisfactory outcome.

I had a complete kitchen remodel over almost three weeks in November. I cannot fault the wonderful guys who removed everything and created a beautiful new space for me. The fitting and sizing of every unit and appliance was excellent and they constantly checked with me to ensure I was happy with the work they were doing. They also tiled the walls above the countertops and the floor. In addition I had new lights fitted in a very high ceiling (which involved) a lot of crawling around in a narrow roof space. Every part of the job was performed by… [read more]

We are so delighted with the building works and kitchen fitting completed by Aspire . Aspire basically removed the back of our house and put in bifolds, knocked through internal weight bearing walls and fitted a kitchen, tiled floors , completed electrical works etc. From start to finish they were professional and we felt we had full trust in them . Jeremy , Marcus and all the guys that work with them are a credit and actually a pleasure to have in our home. Always made sure that they were delivering on our requirements, kept us fully updated on timescales…. [read more]
They discussed any issues as they occurred to ensure we were happy with proposals and were happy to make suggestions and recommendations. No nasty price increases .. any extras were fully discussed and agreed as we went along . Child and dog friendly ! Cannot speak highly enough of the whole team and look forward to welcoming them back in the spring for garden makeover.

If you are looking for a professional, polite, trustworthy company to carry out works that go that extra mile with the class of craftmanship that is a rare commodity in modern day builders then I can guarantee you will 100% not be disappointed in any way using Jeremy and Marcus’s at Aspire.The works that have been undertaken for us are a roof removed from an extension and a new one fitted, bathroom removed and refitted, 9 doors removed and refitted, an old glazed front door removed and brand new one fitted and most recently a full kitchen removal, and a… [read more]
new kitchen fitted.All of this work was done to a level that was absolutely first rate, flawless and could not be faulted.The kitchen that was fitted was done to such an extremely high standard with every tiny detail discussed with us, advice was offered and if required areas amended to achieve our optimal requirements. There must be a mention to Martyn and Mark who carried out the kitchen works, for which the craftmanship was immaculate, who showed great patience and understanding, consequently became so trusted by us that they had their own keys to our house for the duration of the job.What you get from Aspire from day one, throughout and to completion of a project is complete piece of mind that you will receive an all-round professional service were every aspect from design, building, electric and pluming is all taken care of by the management and a team that will deliver a finish that still has us smiling every time we walk into our kitchen.I would have absolutely no hesitation whatsoever in highly recommending Jeremy, Marcus and the team at Aspire to anyone.

Aspire construction completed a renovation for my husband and I a couple of weeks ago. I am not one for writing reviews however I felt that Aspire construction were so wonderful I wanted to give my feedback. The work they do undertook for me was removing walls, plastering, electrical re-wiring, changing windows, fitting radiators, reflooring and a whole host of other jobs which I added as the build went along. Jeremy, Marcus and team had all the skills and knowledge that were needed to complete the job which meant never having to wait for any other… [read more]

The proof is in the pudding…. I have just booked them to come back and complete a kitchen/utility room renovation for me. Thank you Jeremy and Marcus you are amazing ????.

I would highly recommend Jeremy and his team. We have an old house, which estate agents would say is “full of character,” most builders find it a nightmare. No surface is flat, nothing is straight, there are no right angles. However this team got on with it and with great skill and craftsmanship fitted a downstairs cloak room and utility room.They are trustworthy, got it finished quickly with the minimum of fuss. A great job.

A long delayed piece of work due to COVID but Jeremy, Martin and Mark did a great job for us, ripping out old kitchen and bathroom and highly skilled first and second fit. Both areas look great. Jeremy had some useful design ideas for us and although the job was much more than we first thought – when you start pulling walls down you find all sorts – the team were helpful and tried to keep our costs down. I’d recommend Jeremy to anyone.

This is the third time that we have had Jeremy and his team to do improvements at our house. This time it was to create an ensuite and fitted bedroom wardrobes. Jeremy, Martin and Mark did an excellent job as usual and the new ensuite in particular looks great. They completely ripped out the old bathroom including ceiling and floor andrebuilt it to our specification. Timely, friendly, and very good standard of workmanship. Highly recommended and we will use them again in the future.

Heard great reviews about this company, needed a complete bathroom refurbishment and extension, not been disappointed. From beginning to end, lots of advice and they discovered a problem that in time would have been very costly! So not only bathroom but bedroom renovations too. Completely happy with the end product and such a friendly set of guys too, would highly recommend.

Jeremy and his team fitted our new kitchen a few years ago (on the recommendation of a friend). They did a great job so when we wanted our bathrooms replacing there was only one person to go to.The team (and in particular Martin) spent just over two weeks turning our first bathroom from drab and uninspiring to clean, fresh and bang up to date. It now looks absolutely wonderful and we are so pleased. Punctual, friendly, trustworthy people and most of all producers of a quality product with great attention to detail and liaison with the customer at every stage… [read more]

Right the way through the project Jeremy has supported and advised us in our decisions, and really went that extra mile to make sure everything was exactly as we wanted it to be. We highly recommend Jeremy and his team.

Jeremy has been undertaking work for me for many, many years. I have recommended him to members of my family and to friends – all of whom are now also his loyal customers. I have no hesitation in wholeheartedly recommending him to you. I trust him completely. Over the years Jeremy has carried out tasks for me ranging from the simple such as replacing a slipped roof tile, featherboard fencing or new guttering to just last month the more demanding extensive redesign, renovation and refurbishment of the entire ground floor of the house which included carpentry, plumbing, electrics, demolition, insertion… [read more]
of rsj’s, bricklaying, flooring, plastering, tiling, painting and replacement windows and doors. I have always found Jeremy’s estimates both in terms of cost and time to be reasonable and accurate. Most building projects change and evolve along the way and my wife has ensured that mine have been no exception to this! Some of the modifications required have been minor, some major and some you’d think downright impossible but nothing has been a problem, nothing insurmountable and nothing too much trouble. There has always been a smile and the job has still finished on time. Jeremy’s ‘can do attitude’ has meant that I have always had exactly what I have wanted and it has been done to the highest standard. Jeremy has the attitude: “If it wouldn’t be good enough for my home it’s not good enough for yours”. The quality of his work is undeniably second to none. Jeremy and his team are professional, reliable, honest and polite. They arrive on time and they work hard all day. At the end of each day they clean up as best as they can but at end of the job the site is left clean and tidy. They are respectful of the fact that their work place, ‘the site’, is not just a building site it’s more than that, it’s someone’s home. A place someone loves. I have never had cause to call him back to address a problem but am sure if such an occasion were to arise he would come back and would rectify the matter without rancour or ill feeling.

couldn’t find exactly what I needed. The end product was excellently fitted and exactly what I had asked for and more. He made the experience for my husband and I as stress free as possible. The work was completed on the days he said they would be and also the whole project on exactly the time frame he quoted us. Value for money with his skills and ability was spot on. We have now used JR Cheeseman for three further projects a new en suite, sitting room conversion and also to gut a flat we had just purchased. The quality of the work he did for all three further jobs was to the same exacting standards as before. I cannot recommend Jeremy and his team highly enough.. His work on all the jobs he has completed for me have been A1 standard, he is trustworthy, friendly and a fantastic builder and carpenter.

We now have a beautiful ensuite bedroom a study and a new hallway thanks to JR Cheeseman. From quoting the job to helping us with design choices and fitting the work to our budget they were brilliant. And when they started they worked like the clappers to a high standard and they really enjoy what they do. They flexed to our needs were fun to be around they kept to their budget price and finished the job on time. What more do you need ? Would definitely use them again.
