We rang KeenBuilders Limited for an emergency job, and they arrived within half an hour. To their credit, they completed the work to an excellent standard and even offered to arrange a painter for us. We were very impressed with their prompt response, professionalism, and willingness to go the extra mile. We would happily recommend KeenBuilders Limited to anyone looking for reliable and high-quality service. Reply: Thank you so much for your kind words, Heather. We really appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review. It was our pleasure to help with your emergency repair, and we’re pleased we could get everything sorted quickly and to a high standard. Going the extra mile for our clients is something we pride ourselves on, so it’s great to hear that reflected in your experience. Thank you again for trusting Keen Builders Ltd, and please don’t hesitate to get in touch if we can help with anything in the future.

I ended up with Brae as my builder purely by chance and was thrilled with him from the outset. He is very prompt and professional in all his communications and I provided him with only the vaguest idea of what I wanted for my bathroom, but he still somehow managed to deliver beyond my expectations. I also had a very short timeframe for getting the work done but he made sure it was completed and tidied up within that time. I have been very impressed by Brae and his subbies and will definitely use him again in future and recommend him to everyone in the meantime. Thanks Brae! Reply: Thank you so much, Jane, for your amazing review. It was an absolute pleasure working with you on your bathroom renovation. We’re thrilled that we could bring your vision to life, even with only a rough idea to start from, and that we were able to complete everything within your timeframe. Your kind words about our communication, workmanship, and the team mean a lot to us. Thank you for trusting Keen Builders Ltd with your project, and we look forward to working with you again in the future. Enjoy your new bathroom! – Brae & the Keen Builders Ltd team

Keen Builders communicated promptly, turned up when they said they would, and did a stellar job. They showed initiative, for example asking me whether to remove old telecommunications cables, and pointing out a possible leak. They fitted my small job into their schedule and made a clear plan for returning to apply further coats of sealant. The price was excellent. I wholeheartedly recommend them. Reply: Thank you very much for your kind review. We really appreciate it and are glad you were happy with the communication, workmanship, and service.

100% happy, with a difficult bathroom sink replacement: prompt, friendly, great job. Reply: Happy to help! It was the perfect job to fit into one afternoon.

Brae from Keen Builders does very professional work and is very friendly to deal with. He is very knowledgeable, hard-working, efficient and effective, while providing great advice. Our 100 year old Railways Cottage is looking much better with a new porch deck, weatherboards replaced and sash windows repaired. The scribers and mitre joints are very precise and the work done is very reasonably priced. A bit more painting and she'll be looking good for another ten years! Thanks Brae! Reply: Thank you Geoffrey, I really appreciate the kind words. It was a pleasure working with you. Homes of that age have a lot of character, and it’s always rewarding bringing them back up to a good standard while keeping their original features. I’m glad you’re happy with the new porch, the weatherboard repairs. Once the painting is finished it should look great and be well protected for years to come. Thanks again for trusting Keen Builders with the work.
