Client Testimonial
We bought a new 4 bed house in Edenbridge and obtained planning permission to build a basement across the whole of the property. This allowed us to create a large Kitchen / Conservatory area with full views out onto the garden via a new lowered patio.
We were always concerned about any risk to our house and we also needed re-assurance that once the job started we wouldn’t be left with a job not completed. (We needed to live above the project). JK were recommended by my Architect as he had used them numerous times and they had always produced a really high quality job, on time and on budget.
The Directors of JK, John and Kris and their team were superb in their execution of the work and the key to their success lies in both their management of the site and the team. Everything was done exactly to plan and as agreed and Kris is the smartest and best turned out builder that I’ve ever come across! John and Kris are both very amenable and positive, always coming up with solutions when an issue arose. We were constantly kept up to date and they continued on site every day and there were no lapses in the program of works.
