We were naturally anxious to get the best builder for our important project : the demolition of my mother’s bungalow and the construction of a spacious four-bedroomed two-storey house on the site.

Tony Doel was recommended to us and, after visiting people he had done work for before, we engaged him for the job. We need not have worried. We genuinely have nothing but praise for his work. Not only was Tony competitively priced but all aspects of the build, both externally and internally, were carried out to the very highest standards. Tony, who effectively project-managed the whole build, has a very keen eye for detail and is a perfectionist which is readily apparent in his work. He was happy to advise on many aspects of the build and was scrupulously honest and reliable, staying on site all day and every day.

The house was built on budget and on time and we are absolutely delighted with the end result.

We would employ Tony again without hesitation and would recommend him to anyone.

I would thoroughly recommend Tony Doel to everyone. In fact I wouldn’t have anyone else, having experienced Tony’s workmanship, commitment and attention to detail. This is exactly the the recommendation I received from my gardener, when we were first talking about our intentions to put an extension on the side of the house. He immediately personally recommended Tony Doel and said he’d employ no one else.
One of the main benefits of having Tony is that he concentrates on just one project at a time, so doesn’t disappear off to attend to another build for 2-3 days a week. Tony and his team arrive on time each day, come rain or shine and get on with whatever is necessary. Tony gives sound guidance and advice to accommodate any changes which become appropriate as the build evolves.
Tony ensures works continue until a totally professional build is complete and is passed at an inspection by the local Building Control Partnership, giving the necessary “Certificate of Completion” required by law.

I hope the above is what you were hoping for.

You could add an addendum by saying that you have been asked to return in the next financial year to totally refit the kitchen, and at the same time to fix a leaking shower waste outlet, resulting in having to remove part of the ceiling above the kitchen.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Tony for any building work.
From the initial quote through to the completion of the project I was pleased with everything.
He always kept us well informed of his work schedule and never let us down.
He carried out all of the work in a professional manner and was very knowledgeable throughout.
Tony was extremely considerate and thoughtful about the way he carried out the works and the impact it would have on us.
The work was completed on time and to a very high standard.
I would have absolutely no hesitation whatsoever in recommending him to anyone.

We have been very pleased with the double garage conversion carried out by the above firm.
Tony Doel and staff were always polite, tidy and very punctual. The work was continuous and within the time allotted.
They carried out the work expertly and thoroughly and the building work was certified by the building inspector.

We would certainly ask this firm to act again for us on any future building work.

I would like to thank Tony and his team from Horizons Carpentry & Building Ltd for the excellent job they did in transforming our garage into a home-gym.
Tony's attention to detail, flexibility and professionalism is second to none. Tony also made great suggestions on the effective use of the small space. It is such a pleasure to workout in a warm gym which is sealed from the cold.

I would highly recommend Tony, not only for his professionalism but also for providing us with a very cost-effective solution.

Tony did a fantastic job converting our loft. He finished within the discussed time scales and was ready to adapt things, within reason, as the build progressed. My husband is an Architect and has a good level of understanding of the building industry, the finish that Tony provided far exceeded his expectations. I would throughly recommend him for any building works and have already booked him for an up and coming project on our house in 2023.

Tony laid a garden patio for me. The price was very competitive and the finished result was absolutely superb.

There was no mess at the completion of the works and all work was carried out within an agreed timescale and budget to a very high standard.

I would not hesitate for one second to recommend Tony for any works to be carried out.

March - May 2021 single story extension/New Kitchen

We looked and chose carefully a builder to carry out a single-story extension on our property. We are so glad we came across Tony. Even though we had to wait for him to do the work as he was so busy and booked up it was well worth the wait. Tony carried out our build professionally, to a very high standard, clean and tidy and always kept the customer involved, always on time and updated us as the project developed. We were so impressed with Tony and Ollie on the completion of the build Tony and Ollie fitted our kitchen, laid our flooring and put a new patio down in our garden to finish it all off. Tony will talk with the building inspectors when they come on sight and keep you informed of any concerns but he always came up with a solution. If you are looking for a builder who will do everything and not have to sub contract work out to other trades, not rip you off and is honest and trustworthy then please don't look any further, just get plenty of coffee in
Tony and Ollie nice guys,
Thank you

When planning to extend on our bungalow we were concerned that we used a good and reliable local builder. We were recommended to use Tony Doel of Horizons Carpentry and Building Ltd, and it was the best advice we could have taken. Tony and his team were excellent and we are delighted with the result and quality of our extension. We could not have wished for more.

Tony, apart from being an extremely talented builder is skillfull, considerate, hardworking, polite, tidy and a very pleasant man. We would not use anybody else for future work and would thoroughly recommend him.

I cannot recommend Horizons led by Tony Doel highly enough. From the first meeting until job completion Tony’s service was exceptionally professional and communication was excellent.

Tony completed a dormer loft conversion and open planned new kitchen, his work is of the highest standard and he continually liaised with us to ensure we were happy with every step of the project.
Tony’s price was very competitive and beat numerous other larger companies, his hard work and eye for detail was clearly apparent throughout the project arriving on time and always completing a full day on the job.

If you want work completing to the highest standard rest assured Horizons are your go to company. Thank you Tony.
