  My daughter's first comment on moving into our new house was "I feel like I'm in a fancy hotel". We love our renovated house - David did two bathrooms, kitchen, floors painting and many more small details that I would not have even realised were there. The result is a sparkling beautiful new house which I know has been done to high quality and will really last. David was very honest and accurate on projected costs and did not sugar coat the cost of renovations. No detail was beneath his attention and he consulted me on all aspects of the renovation, even things which I was happy to leave to his experienced judgement. He was a master of managing the complicated scheduling of even this relatively modest renovation. The tradesmen he works with all worked to a very high standard and he clearly works only with the best. I count myself lucky to be the beneficiary of David's lifetime of experience in building beautiful houses and would highly recommend DLR Bespoke Builds.

  I recently had the pleasure of working with David L Ritherdon Bespoke Builds for a home renovation and the construction of a large balcony. They exceeded my expectations in several key areas: 1. Punctuality and Budget Adherence: o David consistently delivered on time and within the agreed-upon budget. 2. Anticipating Issues: o David demonstrated excellent foresight. He proactively identified potential challenges and addressed them before they became major roadblocks. 3. Expertise and Material Advice: o As a highly experienced builder, David provided valuable advice on materials. His recommendations helped us make informed decisions that contributed to the project’s success. 4. Effective Communication: o David kept us informed at every stage. 5. Accurate Billing and Efficient Back Office: o The billing process was transparent, and the invoices accurately reflected the work done. Their back-office administration was smooth and hassle-free. 6. Design Suggestions and Cost Savings: o David went beyond the basics. He actively suggested design improvements that not only enhanced the appearance but also reduced costs. His creativity was invaluable. 7. Honesty and Reliability: o David consistently demonstrated honesty and reliability throughout the project. 8. High-Quality Workmanship: o The end result speaks for itself. The quality of their work was top-notch, and they ensured that every detail was attended to. 9. Access to other trades o David’s team of employees and external trades were as professional as he was. 10. Completion and Future Projects: o David didn’t consider the job finished until we were completely satisfied. We have already arranged for additional work with him and his team. In summary, David is a builder who combines expertise, communication skills, and a commitment to excellence. I wholeheartedly recommend him and his team for any residential construction project
