Garage Conversion and Utility Room

“This is the first time I have ever had a builder in to done any work on my property. Me and my Wife did some research first, got some quotes in. We went to see Jim/Troy at Work on his current conversion.(We were impressed and recommend). His prices are fare and honest/competitive not the cheapest but not the most expensive ( I had a quote for twice Jim`s price). His communication is spot on, always replies to you ASAP, either by email, phone or text he uses technology to his advantage, this is a good thing as this shows he is always willing to learn/benefit from technology which helps everyone.

They started a week early kept to his schedule and completed on time, planning and paperwork were straight forward. 4 Months later down the line we had a minor issue, I contacted Jim (1 call Only) discussed the problem, They rectified the problem in one visit, no fuss straight forward. After sales service excellent. They are punctual, polite, easy to deal with and are good hard working honest blokes. I would not hesitate to recommend him 110% and will definitely use his services again. Thanks”

“Freeform Construction recently replaced all our guttering, pipes and facia. They arrived early, left late and worked hard. They did a superb job for us at a competitive price and swept everything away each day before leaving. They were trustworthy lads and we were more than happy to leave them to it whilst we were both at work. We would highly recommend Freeform Construction to anyone.”

“Freeform Construction converted our garage into a second reception room for us. Jim and his team were friendly, efficient and ensured they cleaned up at every stage. The whole conversion from start to finish only took 5 days. Jim even carried out some additional work by doing some smaller jobs in other parts of our house and put up some of our wall items in the conversion. We are extremely happy with the service we recieved, the end result is better than we imagined and we wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Jim and his team on to family and friends.”

“We had our double garage converted by Jim Allsop in May 2009. We were pleased we chose him. Thoroughly professional service throughout, starting from the quote which was given after careful measurements and calculations as opposed to plucking a figure out of the air like the other builders. He has a full team of experienced workmen. Finished the job 2 days before the estimated date. They left the site cleaned up every evening when they left. All work carried out was of a high standard and remaining within the projected costs. We reported a minor electrical fault a month or so later and an electrician was quickly despatched to sort the problem. Absolutely no hesitation in recommending Jimbo for your garage conversion!”

“I have used these people on two occasions, they would not have got the second job if they had given me cause for complaint the first time. I found both Jim and Troy to be very hard workers and they always do a good job of cleaning up after they have finished. Jim prices up the job and if you are happy with the price, he gives you a start date. They don’t hang around once they get going. I have been very happy with their work on both occasions I have employed them.”

Garage Conversion with En Suite

“There are so many scare stories around about building work that I felt it would be appropriate to thank you for my garage conversion. The conversion was built for myself and ,as a disabled person,required many special details. I had a rough idea of what I wanted but was very grateful for your specialist input.You made a range of suggestions that I wouldn’t have thought about including extra wide doors,positioning of plugs and switches,and bathroom furniture which would meet my particular needs e.g. flat entry shower with seat.

The work was completed with minimum disruption ,in a professional manner, and on schedule. Of course the real test only comes once the room is in use and I can only say how comfortable I am in my en-suite bedroom. Finally,I would add that the price was both competitive and value for money. Thanks Jim.”

Garage Conversion

“The works carried out by Jim Allsop was great, I couldn’t be happier. My wife got the details for Freedom Construction from the yellow
pages so for us it was a shot in the dark. It’s the first time I have had any work done on the house by a builder and like most had
many reservations due to much bad press builders receive. What I can say is Jim advises you on the best way to tackle any issues you
may have and gives you options whether it’s to his gain or not.

He lived a good 25miles from my address and arrived at 8am every morning, all members of his team are very friendly and when needed jobs were completed on time with no hassle. We had one or to issues which came up throughout the works and all issues were resolved brilliantly and they even came up at weekend to finish one or two bits and even though this wasn’t a problem for me when I said there was no need leave it until Monday they came anyway. The team always cleared up their equipment and took away any hardcore, rubbish and the like (which I thought was great) and treated my house as if it was his own.

All the guys were great with my little girl and respected our family space. I will be having Jim and his team back in the future due to his standard of work and the way they go about it.”

“We chose Freeform construction following a meeting with Jim where he explained the various procedures for our garage conversion. This was followed up with a quote, which included a detailed account of all the works to be carried out. We liked the fact that Jim and his team would only work on our conversion and not other jobs at the same time and that the work would be completed within an agreed short space of time. Jim and his team were friendly and hard-working, clearing up after themselves at the end of each day.

Unforeseen problems that were encountered were easily overcome and they did additional work for us that was not in the original agreement. We are happy with our garage conversion and would not hesitate to recommend Freeform Construction.”

Garage Conversion and Kitchen

“Molly and I are very happy with the work that Freeform did during our garage conversion and kitchen re-fit. I’m proud of my new library, and Molly is thrilled with the new kitchen and utility room which includes a washing area, shower and toilet. During the conversion they made sure that the place was reasonably tidy at the end of each day. Jim was happy to oblige when things wanted changing, and he used professional sub contact people when required. Freeform provided a detailed cost analysis for the work prior to commencement and made all the arrangements for the building regulations to be in order, including inspections. He gave us a competitive quote, but it was his enthusiasm for his profession and friendly demeanour that made all the difference.

We are happy to recommend Freeform, and we would certainly use their services again when the need arises. Bill Hails Jim, if you want me to modify this in any way let me know. I think that this reflects what we think overall.”

“Jim and his team have carried out several jobs for me, both small and big. In my experience Jim is trustworthy, helpful and competent in what he does, always turning up when he says he will – very important. I find that Jim gives me options when discussing work that I need doing, he explains these options well and then quotes work to fit my budget and needs. I have recommended Jim to my female friend because I trust Jim to be fair and not take advantage of someone with little experience of building work. In this world of tradesmen who overcharge and carry out poor and expensive work, Jim is a breath of fresh air, someone I can completely trust to act in my best interests.”
