What is included

How a refurbishment with LJS actually runs

A refurbishment is mostly organisation. Here is what you get from us on every project, whether it is one room or a whole house.

01

A plan before anything is lifted

We survey the property, agree the scope room by room and set the order the trades run in, so the job has a shape before it starts.

02

One point of contact throughout

You deal with us, not five different trades. We coordinate the people coming through your door and keep the schedule honest.

03

Clear, staged pricing

A written quote broken into stages, so you can see what each part of the work costs and nothing lands as a surprise.

04

The groundwork done properly

Levelling, waterproofing and preparation happen before the finishes go on. It is the part nobody sees and the part that decides how long the work lasts.

05

Made good as we go

Plastering and making good after the messy trades, so walls and ceilings are ready for decorating rather than left for someone else.

06

Snagged and signed off

We walk the finished work with you, list anything that needs putting right and deal with it before we call the job done.

Basement conversion with shower room

10/10
This was the second job Luke and his team did for us, the first being a very nifty under stairs half bathroom. This time was a conversion and upgrade of our two basement rooms: complete modernisation combining the two, with a new integral shower room with toilet. Luke has a real can-do approach, works with some lovely people, and is really good at working with you to help achieve your ideas. It's another lovely job and we're delighted.

Amazing work

10/10
You can tell from the get-go Luke is someone who really cares about his work, he has a lovely group of people working with him and is more fairly priced than a lot of competitors. We are not the easiest customers and we made quite a few changes during the process which Luke was more than happy to address and assist us in changing, and even covered the costs of some parts he felt would be unfair to make us pay for again. We couldn't be happier with our new bathroom, we are so glad we went with Luke.

Outstanding service and excellent workmanship

10/10
Luke and the team at LJS Plumbing did a brilliant job on our bathroom. My wife and I are expecting a baby, so we were on a tight deadline, and they stayed late to make sure everything was finished on time and to a very high standard. The quality of the work is excellent and we're over the moon with the result. I found a couple of small snagging items and Luke booked them in straight away. I was a bit nervous using a company I hadn't used before, but I couldn't fault them. Highly recommend.

Very happy customer

10/10
I was very impressed from the quote visit to the work being carried out. The team ensured that our carpets were protected from any work debris. They attended on time on date. The team worked late into one evening so that we wouldn't be without heating, even though we said that they could leave the heating till the following day. When we noticed a very slow leak from one the new radiators, Luke made sure that on a day we were back from a mini break, the radiator was fixed. I would highly recommend this company.

Re-fitted bathroom

10/10
Luke heads a professional and enthusiastic team. Work was carried out with no fuss and no mess. I was fully consulted at every stage on progress and choices. Any unforeseen problems were dealt with promptly. Nothing was too much trouble. I am very pleased with my refitted bathroom.
