P A Hollingworth & Co Ltd

I am pleased to be able to put into writing that my PAH experience has been excellent. I know that the forthcoming winter will be the acid test, because the works have largely been about rectifying water ingress, but given that, what your team have done looks to be excellent quality workmanship; and I applaud that. Thank you for your professional advice at all times and also my thanks goes to the complete team who grafted and achieved the good job on site - Pete, Carl, John, Arthur, Dan, Peter H. Also, not forgetting the competent office team, Robert, Jenny, Sara (my apologies if I have omitted anybody who contributed to the above job). I will not hesitate to recommend PAH to friends and neighbours and in fact I have already done so in a couple of cases.

Can't recommend enough. We used Hollingworth for some renovation work on our house, including a new kitchen. They were professional from the start. Began work when they said they would and worked every day until the job was done (on time). Their quoting was very clear, no hidden costs. The builders that did the work were intelligent, courteous, punctual and hard working. We had a few glitches, but these were sorted out quickly and thoroughly. Customer service was second to none and communication at the office end was superb. A lot of people think they're builders these days, and I have run into my fair share of them, but PAH are the real deal, a great family-run building company.

The quote was professional and precise but after that generally a very poor standard of workmanship.The standard of the workmen was spasmodic, some taking care others slap dash and needed pulling up on their workmanship. The final straw was an uncaring, abusive message from the Managing Director complaining about product damaged by their tradesman and wanting to fob me off with a inferior product or charging me for their tradesmen time when they were there to resolve the problem. A tradesman even admitted that it had been damaged by a fellow tradesman and the quality of the offered product was inferior to the original product. After heated exchanged e mails I was the better person by walking away from an obnoxious MD and company. Never consider this company.

We have, on behalf of our Clients, recently engaged P.A. Hollingworth & Co. Building Contractors Limited on three projects in the South East of England and their performance on each project has been of a very high standard. Their attention to constructional details has been excellent and we have found them to be extremely co-operative. We will certainly consider them for any forthcoming projects.

Friendly professional staff who are very welcoming and knowledgeable about construction methods. Well set out, comfortable waiting area. Private rooms for meetings to discuss all your construction needs. Very recommended...
