Very professional and efficient. Extremely thorough and all work performed to a high standard. Extremely pleased with the finished result and hope to work with them again in the future. Highly recommended for any building or renovation work/projects. (Reviewed October 2022)
We have used Homecare Building and Maintenance for a number of jobs, big and small, over the years and Pete and John never disappoint. They inspire confidence with their knowledge, high class workmanship and friendly customer service. Our leaking garage has been given a new lease of life and everything was left neat and tidy. If you want a good job done for a fair price, you need have no hesitation with this company. Many thanks for all your help. (Reviewed March 2022)
Pete and John have undertaken a number of building projects for us over the years and have always been flexible and given great input into whatever works we are proposing. They liaise with the architect and structural engineers to achieve our requested requirements and vision. There work has always been excellent and if we have any questions post completion they are always happy to pop back and resolve if necessary. (Reviewed November 2021)
The builders provided an exceptional service. They worked diligently and always worked with us to make the best of the project, often adding useful input and making the final result better as a consequence. Good, sensitive communications and clear ideas of costs and timelines were provided before the work started and during the project. We recommend this company to those planning a large building extension. (Reviewed November 2021)
Homecare went over and above everything that I expected of them and are without doubt, the best in the business at what they do. Their workmanship was faultless, their attention to detail was perfect and at all times they kept me in the loop with what was going on.
You get so used nowadays to being forced into paying for unnecessary work, because you're told "it needs doing" that it was so refreshing to be given options depending upon how much I was prepared to spend and the durability of those choices.
I have another project that needs doing and I shall be calling them again soon - good old fashioned values and standards count for a lot in my book. (Reviewed May 2021)
First rate service from beginning to end. Always arrived when they said they would at the estimating stage and focused wholly on our job until the job was done. The work was the highest quality. They built single story extension, decorated and built lovely large patio. Prices were reasonable and both Pete & John are approachable and friendly. I could not recommend them enough. (Reviewed April 2021)
We received the most excellent work from this company. Apart from the work they were so very helpful and friendly. You couldn't wish for nicer people. Their eye for detail and quality of workmanship was second to none. We have no hesitation in recommending this company to anybody. (Reviewed February 2021)
Pete and John did an amazing job on my conservatory flooring, electrics, and decking in my garden. I would definitely recommend them to others. The site was kept tidy, they were very reliable, friendly, and knowledgeable. (Reviewed January 2021)
From start to finish a first rate build. Pete & John are personable, hard working and obviously take pride, justifiably, in their work. Nothing was too much trouble. They kept the place as tidy as possible throughout. They were happy to discuss new ideas and give their thoughts on the best way to achieve what we were looking to do. They always kept us informed of any supply delays caused by C-19 and suggested alternative materials if delays were excessive. They were always punctual, even at the quote stage, and they were focused solely on our build. There was no disappearing for days like you get with some builders who take on more than one job at a time. We would not hesitate to recommend Homecare Building and Maintenance to anybody. (Reviewed September 2020)
I cannot speak highly enough of the services provided. Above technical ability these are just nice guys
Great attention to detail. Go above and beyond to provide the customer what they need - often when you don't even know you need it!
Clean and tidy
Very supportive
I have no reservations in recommending Pete and John to anyone who is willing to listen (Reviewed June 2020)
Amazing service as always! Pete and John are both very professional and they have done a great job. The bathroom looks great! (Reviewed December 2019)
I was very happy with the work, which included fitting a new kitchen, adding a hatch to my property and insulating the loft. Excellent job, completed quickly and efficiently, with Hcbm fixing extra/unexpected issues the property had. Also, excellent communications. I'm a landlord not living in the area, and Pete kept me updated throughout, doublechecked and sorted out everything by emails, and sent me photos at the end. Highly recommended. (Reviewed October 2019)
Pete and John undertook damp-proofing work, the hanging of new doors and the fitting of new door furniture at my property. They were knowledgeable and their work was of a high standard. They exercised care and respect for my property. (Reviewed September 2019)
HomeCare Building & Maintenance Ltd undertook the taking down of a workshop and the provision of uPVC cladding to part of my garage wall among other works. Their work was of a high standard, neat and tidy. I will be using them again. (Reviewed August 2019)
We are extremely pleased with Peter and John from Homecare Building & Maintenance who completed a number of jobs on our new home over the course of a couple of months (rendering and pointing, gutters, drains, electrics in the garage, patio in the garden, handrail and back step, and a number of other smaller jobs that together turned our house into a lovely home and our garage into a workshop. We would highly recommend Homecare for its high level of workmanship and advice, and excellent workers who take the time to understand what you want from a job and deliver on time, within budget and with a lovely result. Well done Peter and John at Homecare: quality work and quality workers! (Reviewed June 2019)
They put roof lights in our kitchen and has made the kitchen so much bigger and lighter. Good timekeeping, conscientious workers.
Would highly recommend (Reviewed April 2019)
They were excellent in the workmanship and listened to what was required for our teenager son. (Reviewed March 2019)
Excellent in every way! (Reviewed April 2018)
Peter and John Littlejohn have done a variety of jobs for us over the last two years or so - converting a garage, fitting a kitchen, taking out a central chimney stack - and on this last occasion painting our lobby, hallway, stairwell, landing and upstairs corridor. Once more, I have found them to be careful, skilful, and ingenious workmen, with a wealth of shared experience. However, I also value their considerateness, going the extra mile to minimise the inevitable disruption that comes with work in the home. (Reviewed March 2018)
Friendly and efficient. I would definitely use them again. (Reviewed March 2018)
Pete and John are the hardest working builders I know, and I supervise contractors for a living.. They are straight talking, friendly and efficient, and I am always happy with the quality of their work. (Reviewed March 2018)
We are always impressed with the speedy, efficient and competent service we receive from John and Peter of HB&M. All done in a pleasant and friendly manner. (Reviewed March 2018)

Excellent (Reviewed January 2018)
First class in every way. (Reviewed December 2017)
Prompt, efficient, excellent service.
Would not consider using anyone else. (Reviewed December 2017)
I contracted the company to undertake additional work to the main job (described in my earlier feedback). The additional work was to relay a section of block paving and replace some aging and poorly installed UPVC windows and doors - all of which was estimated for, came in within budget, and was completed to a high standard. With time and money to spare, I was in a position to ask the Littlejohns to attended to various smaller jobs. These they also kindly agreed to, with typical good humour, finishing in just a couple of days, and at a very reasonable cost! (Reviewed September 2017)
The main job (extending and refitting a bathroom) demanded ingenuity and skill. Having employed the Littlejohns before, I knew them to be careful and considerate workmen with a weaith of experience in the building trades. They consulted at every stage, suggested improvements to what I had planned, went out of their way to source the materials we needed, and completed an excellent job, on time and within estimate. Neighbours commented on how tidy their work was. (Reviewed September 2017)
Prompt, efficient, reliable, friendly. A family business with integrity and value for money. Good quality outcomes. (Reviewed July 2017)

I have used this company many times over the past two years and their work and commitment as always been of the highest standard. (projects include new bathroom, new kitchen, replacement front doors and many window replacements). (Reviewed July 2017)
Very clean and the work was to a high standard. Would recommend them to anyone. (Reviewed July 2017)
The service and helpfulness were excellent. Very friendly and accommodating, cleaned up after they finished, would recommend them to anyone. (Reviewed November 2016)
Homecare Building & Maintenance is a small family company recommended to me by David Challoner, who prepared the plans required by the local council for the conversion of a garage and small workshop to a kitchen/utility/dining room plus lobby. The two hands-on directors of the company, Peter and John Littlejohn, have long experience in the building trade. Where necessary, they used the services of two bricklayers, an electrician and a heating engineer - men whose quality of work they knew they could rely on. They advised on the design and materials, negotiated the inevitable unexpected problems, and saw the whole job through without fuss - always tidy and considerate - and a pleasure to have around in what proved a lengthy process.

Probably the best builders we have ever used. Nothing was too much trouble. Great care was taken to minimalise any disruption to our lives. They worked in a clean and organised manner and within the time scale they had told us. The end result is all we hoped for. We will definitely use them again and have already recommended them to friends. (Reviewed May 2016)
Very conscientious and hard working. Very considerate whilst working in our home. (Reviewed April 2016)
This is the third time we have employed homecare building and once again we are very pleased with the way they have carried out the work. (Reviewed March 2016)
Homecare carried out a renovation and re-fit of the kitchen by knocking two rooms into one, thus making a large and spacious kitchen. Several technical problems has to be solved and the final finish is immaculate. (Reviewed March 2016)
Pleasant and efficient service with minimal disruption a difficult job well done. (Reviewed October 2015)
We have used this company a number of times and have every confidence in their work. They always go the extra mile to meet your needs and ensure you are happy. Nothing is too much trouble. (Reviewed October 2015)
The company quotes for and carried out a total refurbishment of the bathroom. During the refurbishment - a number of unforeseen setbacks and additional requests occurred which they dealt with thoroughly and cheerfully. The standard of work was excellent and we would not hesitate to re-use them. (Reviewed May 2015)
Very good workmanship and clean and tidy. (Reviewed April 2015)
Homecare Building removed the dividing wall between toilet and bathroom and refurbished the bathroom installing new bathroom suite, floor tiles and wall tiles and re-plastering where necessary. The work was faultless throughout, superb! (Reviewed April 2015)
I would always use Homecare for any future building work I want to have carried out. Their work is of a very high standard and they are reliable and careful. It can be stressful having builders in the home, but they are a pleasure to have around. (Reviewed January 2015)
Excellent communication from the initial quote to the completion of the job. I used Homecare to have an extension built onto my house and would not hesitate to use them again for future projects. Professional and polite at all times with an excellent standard of work. Highly recommended. (Reviewed January 2015)
Homecare Building and Maintenance are a family firm and we would definitely recommend them. They use quality materials and the standard of work is excellent. They are versatile, reliable and they are extremely hard working. Nothing was too much trouble for them. They recently built a utility room extension for us, including fitting all the units, and carried out a garage conversion. They also carried out work on our main bathroom. We had the bath removed and a large shower unit installed. They did a brilliant job on the tiling. They added tiles to existing ones and the work is so good that you cannot differentiate between the new and the old. We are very pleased with all works carried out. (Reviewed January 2015)
Pete, John and Sam are friendly, reliable, hard working and able to turn their hand to almost anything. They were happy to construct hidden beams in our kitchen, which other builders were unprepared to do; this allowed us to plan the space as we wished and it now looks great. They also dealt with difficult situations efficiently and without panic such as when they replaced the double glazing of our substantial patio window in our living room in the middle of winter. Unfortunately the frame crumbled away (because it was rotten) when they took the existing single pane out. They ended up having to reconstruct the substantial window from scratch in one day at no notice and without any of the materials to hand. This they did even though it required them to work in freezing temperatures late in to the evening to make the house air tight. We are happy with their work and would use them again. (Reviewed January 2015)
Pete and family/team are great, We've used them for a number of small and large jobs including our front wall, bathroom and kitchen. We have found them to be friendly, helpful, fair, trustworthy, good value, flexible and they do great quality work, which is why we have had them back and will do again. Our neighbour has also used their services and was very pleased with their work too. I would highly recommend them. (Reviewed December 2014)

Courteous, polite and always helpful and friendly.
First class service and an excellent end result.
Would not hesitate to recommend! (Reviewed December 2014)
Another first rate job. Excellent work and highly delighted with the result. Pete is very good at communicating with his customers, who are kept fully informed as to when the work is going to start. Just as important, Pete notifies customers in good time if adverse weather has to alter the schedule for exterior work - as in our case. So refreshing from other past experiences. Cannot speak too highly of Pete and the team! (Reviewed December 2014)

An excellent job from start to finish. Cannot recommend the firm highly enough. Pete explained the details that the job entailed and was friendly, helpful and very business-like. He also gave advice on an unrelated problem. His team carried out the work with the minimum amount of disruption or mess and everything was left clean and tidy. It was reassuring to have a good job done at a fair price by a firm in which we had total confidence. (Reviewed December 2014)
