We used My London Extensions as well, for our renovation in Clapham Junction. We had a side return built out and an extension, in a ground floor flat, so lots of structural work and then all the interior as well, including finishings. David at MLE was great, he took a lot of time at the start for meetings with us and the builders to establish exactly what we wanted and then had his surveyor prepare a full quotation for everything, so there weren't any hidden costs or vague amounts, except where we weren't sure ourselves exactly what we would want. It gave us confidence that we knew what kind of overall sum we were committing to - although build costs have a way of increasing anyway, our extras were minimal and usually because we had asked for something extra. We had had another 2 quotations done and MLE's was in the middle, but our decision went on both value for money in terms of service/quality offered and the fact that David's surveyor spent more time asking questions and getting detail, so we were more confident that there wouldn't be hidden costs.
David kept in touch throughout the project to make sure we were happy with progress and quality and overall we are delighted with the result. The builders were meticulous in their work, with excellent attention to detail and patient with requests to change things as we went along.
