First Choice Extensions Reviews 84

We had a great experience from start to finish. AJ gave us a clear project plan and kept in regular contact throughout the whole process. When we first started planning the extension, we were excited, but also slightly dreading having building work going on again. First Choice made the whole experience as stress free as possible.

The team were respectful, considerate, and professional. We always felt confident that the work was being done properly. One of our neighbours, who works in construction, commented several times that we had clearly “found good builders”.

We would definitely recommend First Choice to anyone considering similar work.

First Choice Extensions did a quality job with my shower and utility room extension and completed the work on time.
The overall job was well managed with good communications throughout, and all the contracted trades were skilled and considerate

5* Service from beginning to end. Couldn’t have asked for a better service. A friend recommended them to me, and we are over the moon with the end product. We are now waiting for planning permission to convert an old brick barn into a 2 bedroom cottage, and wouldn’t use any other building company.

We recently completed a fantastic development that has really transformed our home. The project included an infill ground floor extension and to then open to the rear of the house to create a spacious, open-plan kitchen diner, as well as a loft dorma conversion that added a new bedroom with an en suite.

We chose this company because they were transparent with their costings, took the time to understand what we wanted to achieve, and were consistently approachable throughout the process. Their professionalism and willingness to listen gave us confidence from the outset.

As with any major project, a few issues arose along the way, we always felt comfortable discussing them. The team responded and worked collaboratively with us to put things right, which made the entire experience far less stressful.

Overall, we are delighted with the results and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone considering a home renovation or extension.

Professional service from start to end. They did not raise a single unforeseen to the extent that they manger to absorb it all from digging to building to fine finish. The architect, the PM and the builders team were all working at top level. I would recommend John and John all day long. The PM and the Architect are trust worthy and the compose solid experience. They all dealt with the building regs site visits and brought the project to a successful conclusion

Third time using First Choice and excellent service as always. Would highly recommend this organisation for any work you need doing! Professional throughout.

My husband and I would like to thank Tony and AJ for our amazing extension. It was a once in a lifetime project and we’re so glad we chose First Choice.
They have such a great team of people working with them who were able to work with us to achieve our dream home.
They kept on budget and time and produced a high-standard of work.
We would not hesitate to recommend First Choice and would gladly speak to anyone thinking of using them.

Complete the form. Entre postcode, says don't server that area... so can't see the estimate. Don't bother with them, waste of time.

We selected First Choice based on an initial meeting with Tony who listened to our requirements for the build and budget. He returned with the designer who drew up the plans which we agreed on, with a few minor revisions. Tony then met with us to discuss the budget and timeline with AJ the Project Manager.

All aspects of the build were covered within the budget. Design, permissions, building inspections and structural drawings.

The build was started on the date specified and completed by the end date on the contract which did come in on budget. The contract was very exact and transparent with dates and schedule of payments, all of which were attained on time.

AJ the Project Manager was fantastic and was always available to answer and resolve any queries. All works were carried out by teams of skilled, polite and diligent tradesmen.

We would absolutely recommend First Choice ~ the whole process was made stress free. Thank you all !

We used First Choice for several parts of an initial renovation, and I must say the work was brilliant. We had quite a big project, which included a new roof, gutters, new windows and doors, new plumbing, and the removal of a load-bearing wall to open up the kitchen. There were also a few other tasks, such as bricking up a window and removing a chimney stack.
Tony, who comes round to do the initial quote, is great—no sales patter, listens to what you need and comes back with a quote. His pricing was spot on, based on the research we had done, so no issues there. Some of the other quotes we received were just daft—people chancing their arm. Also, Tony comes across as the kind of person you’d prefer to give your business to—he clearly knows his stuff, and I instantly felt confident that the job would be done well.

The work was completed to an excellent standard, and AJ, the project manager, was there throughout to help. AJ was always available for questions during the project—another top guy.

The team they’ve assembled is excellent—polite lads who just get on with the job. Keep them supplied with brews, and they’ll crack on! It was actually a bit sad when they finished, as they were great to have around the house. The roofers were fantastic, and one of our neighbours even commented on how professional they were—there was minimal disturbance.

At the end of the project, we decided to get Shane in to do the plumbing, based on how good the rest of the team had been (the price quoted was fair). The work was once again completed to a high standard and done efficiently.

I would 100% call Tony and First Choice again for any major work, and I’d recommend them to anyone. Five-star service at fair and competitive prices—what more can you ask for.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding work delivered by the First Choice Extensions I recently worked with for my house refurbishment. Their dedication, professionalism, and attention to detail truly exceeded my expectations. From start to finish, their team demonstrated a strong work ethic, clear communication, and a genuine commitment to excellence.

They were proactive in solving problems, always approachable, and consistently went the extra mile to ensure everything met the highest standards.

I’m genuinely impressed and deeply grateful for their effort. Special thanks to Tony and AJ who are amazing people and always being responsive, respectful, and reliable throughout the entire process. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and high-quality home extensions or renovations works.

From the very start the First choice team were professional, the Project Manager & Project Director would turn up on site (on time) wearing First choice clothing.

Our project was a full house renovation plus extension:
They engaged with our neighbours to make them aware of what building would be carried out & made sure that no building work was conducted on days that was inconvenient for them.

The project manager had a clear schedule and kept us upto date with progress. He also liaised with our own contractors to make sure the project ran smoothly.

House renovations are stressful but First choice were there every step of the way making sure I could make informed decisions.

Tony and the guys were great with our extension and bathroom. Professional, friendly and dealt with the inevitable issues that arise with such projects in a timely and efficient manner. And we are super pleased with the results. Highly recommended.

First Choice Extensions tendered competitively and were appointed to a major refurbishment project which they handled in a professional manner throughout. They were diligent and conscientious with an ability to lead their workforce and confer with the client’s representatives through to completion, achieving a high standard.

A fully project managed process, free from worry or stress - Tony and AJ are dedicated to delivering a high quality build to a promised completion date.
They have a reliable and perfectionist crew.
We love our complicated loft extension and refurbished home.

Thank you to everyone at First Choice Extensions we now have the extra space we needed and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the result.
Everyone involved from start to finish has been just fabulous and the project was finished on time as promised.

This company was working on the house next door to mine, so I'd seen the quality of their work before I asked them to re-roof my existing single-storey extension. The quote was prompt and competitive and they were able to start work within ten days of me accepting. The work took two days, the workmen were self-sufficient and the place was left clean and tidy. On completion the company contacted me to check that I was happy with the work - which I was.
Altogether a really good experience.

This was my first building project so it was important to get it right. I ended up getting 4 quotes, but decided to go with Tony at First Choice Extensions because he gave me more confidence than the other contractors I spoke to.

The quote was competitive and I appreciated that it was far more detailed than any other quote I received, with a full breakdown of costs that others lacked.

Once the project started we were introduced to AJ the project manager who has been nothing short of superb throughout. He's always available if we have any questions. Nothing is too much trouble, and communication is clear so we always know exactly what's happening at every stage.

Any issues encountered (there are always some on every build, in our case caused by work done by the previous owner) have been dealt with smoothly without any hassles. And even when we changed the layout part way through, FCE were happy to adapt.

Overall, I'm delighted with the experience and very happy with the results. It couldn't have gone any better. I would highly recommend Tony and AJ, they won't let you down.

Not just the first choice for extensions! FC did an excellent job refurbishing our Edwardian period property, they came in on time, on budget and everything was delivered as promised.

From the initial kick off meeting, AJ as the Project Manager did a superb job ensuring all ran smoothly. We weren’t living in the property during the renovation and he kept us up to date when we couldn’t attend and even helped ensure that our client supplied items were sequenced on time.

FC were sympathetic to the property and worked well/accommodated other trades which we had already engaged before FC. Although with their network they really are a one stop shop.

We would use them again and we don’t think you can give higher praise than that.

What a great team! From the start, these talented tradesmen (bricklayers, electricians, plasterers, plumbers and drainage, tilers, decorators, all worked together so well, coordinated through their project manager, AJ. They were punctual, hard working, polite and happy to give advice when needed. They also worked quickly to finish before the stated deadline despite the often inclement weather conditions. A definite recommendation for First Choice Extensions from me!
