Description

Abinger Construction Ltd is a Surrey based building company that specialises in bathrooms, wetrooms and high quality home renovations. It works from Dorking and takes on projects for homeowners across Surrey and South West London.

The range of work goes well beyond bathrooms. The company builds new homes, fits bathrooms and wetrooms, carries out conversions, refurbishments and basements, and builds extensions. Past projects listed by the firm include a Wimbledon villa, houses in Dulwich, Kew and Castelnau, and a total house renovation on Geraldine Road where the ground floor of a period terrace was opened up and the structural, electrical and plumbing work and a new kitchen were all handled by the same team.

Every project follows the same four stages. It begins with a consultation and design phase, moves to a transparent proposal and planning stage, then to construction and project management, and finishes with quality assurance and client satisfaction. Before work starts, the client receives an in depth schedule of work, and a weekly meeting with the build manager runs through the whole project so that anything unexpected is raised early rather than at the end.

One thing the company is asked about often is whether a family can stay in the house while the work goes on. Its answer is yes, and it has completed many projects with the family still living there, keeping the site neat and containing the unavoidable mess to the area being worked in. Health and safety is handled through in depth protocols on every build, whether or not the property is occupied, and the firm treats sustainability as part of how it works rather than an afterthought.

Communication is the point the company presses hardest. Clients are given a named point of contact for the build who can be phoned or texted at any time, and the firm is direct about the reputation builders have for going quiet partway through a job. Reviews left by past clients describe work delivered on time and on budget, with the team working alongside the client's own architect and being considerate towards neighbours. The firm holds a number of five star reviews on Houzz.

The work is carried out by a team of experienced craftsmen, and the company is comfortable taking on large, high value home developments as well as single room projects. It backs what it builds with a ten year workmanship guarantee, subject to terms and conditions.
