This project was the biggest to date in my 8 years of trading as Matt Simpson Home Improvements.

Including new En-suite and main Bathroom, 2 single bedrooms knocked through into 1 large bedroom, re-designed and built triple sliding wardrobe to master bedroom, fully decorated throughout, new cloakroom, 55m2 of engineered oak flooring and finally an existing kitchen/dining room and utility room knock through to create a new open plan family kitchen/utility/diner.

The planning for these works took around 24 working hours to gather a final quote plus an additional 16 hours to provide a working schedule which incorporated no less than 6 trades at different times to work in conjunction with the next!!

Sub-Contractor Electricians, Plumber, Plasterer, Decorator and Floor supplier were used during the 9 weeks plus my trades which, on this project, included carpentry, kitchen fitting, floor laying, tiling and decorating.

Beginning on the first floor we worked through the bedroom knock through then onto the en-suite before concentrating on the main bathroom then moving downstairs to carry out all of the ‘1st fix ‘ alterations like removing all of the dividing walls necessary and all electrical, plumbing and plastering works.

The bathroom was then completed along with all of the 1st floor decorating then after the new kitchen/utility/diner had been created and plastered this was fully decorated before the new kitchen was installed and the engineered oak flooring laid.

Finally, the cloakroom was completed and all of the 2nd fix electrics and plumbing finished to mean that the proposed schedule of 8 weeks and 3 days was bang on target !!!!

The customers have left a glowing testimony detailing the whole teams input and care taken during this whole project of which I am incredibly proud.

Matt was recommended to us by a friend after we had admired her lovely kitchen! Our kitchen was fitted within and probably just short of the time frame with minimal disruption! Matt is a perfectionist – we love the final result! We would recommend his work – just make sure there are plenty of biscuits and tea to go around!!

My wife wanted our new kitchen completed before the Summer Holidays, as all our relatives would be travelling over to see us from North America, USA and Canada. Our original contractor let us down, and was unable to do the work in the time frame that we needed it done. I contacted Matt purely on spec, and got an immediate reply, he visited us and stated he could do this when we wanted. After taking measurements, he sent us a planned diagram of the kitchen to our specification, and gave us the estimate. It was slightly more expensive than what I had originally hoped, however Matt was timely, worked constantly and is very professional and dedicated, the products were of a superior quality and the workmanship was superb. This was all done and completed in a matter of days, and my wife and I are delighted with the overall result, and exactly what she wanted. I cant say enough of how impressed I am by the quality, look and workmanship, certainly a good investment and now a very functional kitchen. I would recommend Matt Simpson to anyone.

As well as being very professional at his job, he is a really nice man with a great personality.

Matt did a fantastic job decorating a very old cottage for us which was looking very dated! We were delighted with the work that he did and were even more pleased that he finished the job right on schedule and apart from some extra work I asked him to do right on budget too. We would have no hesitation in recommending Matt and would definitely contact him again.

Matt, just wanted to write to say what a fantastic job you and your team have made of refitting our kitchen. I know that having walls knocked down, kitchen ripped out, new walls built and completely new kitchen installed should have been stressful, but you made it so much easier for us by having such great guys working for you, cleaning up at the end of each day, sticking to your time line/schedule (whilst still accommodating our little changes along the way) and just generally being so personable all the way through. We’re absolutely thrilled with the result and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to others. Thank you so, so much.

Matt Simpson Home Improvements replaced my fascias, soffits and gutterings. A very professional job at a very reasonable price. It was in fact half the price of a quote I had received from someone else!! Matt and the guy who came to carry out the works were very efficient and very friendly. ( And they like their cups of tea )!! I would certainly recommend Matt to anyone and will not hesitate to use him in the future for any other work that may be required.
