Quick and straightforward service

Quick and straightforward service. They called me to ask for more details about the project which I provided and the quote was completed on time. Later I needed some adjustments as there was a slight change of scope, which they quickly fixed without additional charge. Will use again definitely

STAY AWAY!

STAY AWAY!
When asked for a competitive estimate for 1x new build house for electrical they priced this at over £18000 to take 4 weeks and included 114 "earthing and bonding" points which anyone who is in the trade would know is absolute nonsense.

When confronted they admit fault but refuse a refund and then start back tracking trying to turn the blame around, extremely poor service and no integrity in their work. No expertise in certainly the electrical trade and no idea of competitive prices.

Thank you for your feedback. However, this review does not accurately reflect the situation.

As noted over the phone, our expected duration is rounded to the nearest month typically, and the duration noted doesn’t correlate to the cost and has no effect on this. There are not earthing and bonding points at 114 no. as discussed twice now, this is the cost for the first fix cabling works, and bonding is noted to be included within them costs.

At no stage have we 'admitted fault'. We provided you with a client profile form before we started pricing your project where we asked for you to provide us with your rates, and you specifically chose to not fill in this section, and therefore we used the average market rates. We made this extremely clear in our emails, and in our Terms and Conditions that were provided to you.

Once we sent your estimate, our Estimating Director called you where you expressed you were unhappy with the rates as you felt they were too high. The Estimating Director suggested cost savings aspects in order to achieve a more competitive price, and put forward suggestions as to what is able to be lowered in cost to achieve a lower total figure. He had noted that he was happy to make any amendments on your behalf.

You stated in your email that you was expecting a call before we started your project and you stated this did not happen, which was not true. Our senior estimator called you, and we can confirm this call happened where you had provided some further information regarding the project, this was noted down and we ensured this was included within the estimate.

We are disappointed that you have chosen to leave this review, as our team has consistently followed the correct processes and adhered to the terms agreed upon. Nonetheless, we remain open to further discussions if you would like to resolve this matter amicably.

Best quality estimations from a great company

I was recommended My Build Estimate by a friend, and I am pleased to say all of my expectations were met and exceeded. They have a very user-friendly website, and an excellent, helpful team (many thanks to Hollie and Katie) that make the whole transaction smooth and straightforward. I highly recommend them if you are looking for professional estimations and brilliant quality.
Many thanks from Luka Builders Ltd

Clear Service and fast turnaround

Had to find an estimator for a reasonably sized construction project and was particularly pleased with the clear communication, pricing and turnaround of the estimate provided.

If you need a simple costing exercise done then I'd absoloutely go with these folks.
