Endorsements

After 3 tenders, which were all similar, we settled on Compass Construction after meeting with Richard at a house they had previously built. Richard is very knowledgable and gave us lots of advice and reassurance during the tour. We are so happy we did. Compass Construction’s team were invaluable during the build process. Fantastic staff who are so knowledgable, polite and efficient. Answering any questions we had (and we had lots!) Nothing was ever a problem. Any issues were promptly solved. We have a beautiful home that is of great quality and we just feel so grateful that we went with our instinct when choosing a main contractor. My advice would be to not look too deeply at cost but more for quality and previously completed jobs. I can’t recommend Compass Construction enough, you won’t be disappointed. Thank you to Richard, Steve, Barnaby, Daryl and everyone else who’s been on site these past 3 years.

We built a lovely house; but their detail and specification made it even more special.

They are a small company that really care about their customers – that makes a huge difference, and it shows.

We can honestly say we are so glad we chose Compass for our new build. Richard, Steve and the whole team were excellent, extremely professional and completed the build to a very high standard. They really care and take great pride in their work.

The team were friendly, approachable and in constant communication with us regarding the work being carried out day to day. They really didn’t mind spending time with us and answering our many questions (and we had a lot!). When issues cropped up (and they always will) Richard and Steve were great at finding solutions and talking us through options to make sure we understood the implications. They also recommended the approach to take and what we needed to do on our side if needed (e.g. we’d supplied the bathroom furniture and there was an issue with the chosen bath tap).

The team always turned up when expected, worked really hard during the day and as a result the build was completed on time and within budget.

The subcontractors used by Compass also worked to the same high standard as Compass staff and many have worked with compass for a number of years which is a great testament to the company. We lived in a caravan on site and Compass ensured there was minimal inconvenience to us and also to neighbours during deliveries etc.

After the build Compass were great with sorting out snagging. There were no problems getting them back in to remedy things and there was never any question of whether something was covered or not. We still periodically hear from them and feel that if things did still happen that it would be an easy conversation with them.

We are so pleased with our new build. They more than exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend Compass Construction. We are so pleased with our new build. They more than exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend Compass Construction.

And it proved to be the case. We consider them as much friends now as contractors. Every problem that we thought was a crisis was never a problem to Compass. Or if it was they never showed it! Safe reliable hands, good quality work.

Richard Taylor is a professional QS by training so they are right on top of the numbers while his co-director Steve Cadman is on top of site works and programming.

I cannot recommend them highly enough.
