Richard and the team were brought on to remodel our chalet bungalow and add a loft extension. They completely transformed our home and we couldn’t be happier. Throughout the build everyone was courteous and polite and they always left the site tidy and secure at the end of the day. During the process we came across a couple of structural design issues. Richard dealt with them in a calm and measured way, offering solutions which actually improved the end result.

The internal finishes, which included fitting the kitchen, were completed to a very high standard. We cannot rate Green Beaver highly enough.

Mrs Phelan

We would happily recommend Richard and his team. They did a great job of our extension and they were professional and respectful throughout the build.

All trades were completed to a high standard, and we have a great finish throughout. Richard kept us well informed all the way through and despite Covid interrupting our build, he coordinated it's completion as swiftly as possible. We are very happy with our completed project."

Mrs Preston

Richard and his team were a pleasure to work with for the renovation and extension of our home. The project was completed on time despite various changes along the way. Richard's communication throughout the process was excellent.

We are very happy with our new space. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Green Beaver.

When embarking on our 2 storey house extension, we were reccomended Green Beaver by our architects, & when contacted, Richard invited us along to view a few of the properties they had recently done. This immediately made us feel that these builders were not only proud of their work, but clearly had built good relationships with their clients who were only to happy to invite future clients to see the standard of work carried out.

The houses we viewed were varied in their style & budget, and we instantly felt comfortable chatting to Richard about choices for our own build. He was flexible enough during the whole process to make adjustments & come up with suggestions, in-keeping with planning permission & building regulations. In fact, the build ran smoothly & to plan & having the Green Beaver team around the place for quite some months was fun, & not at all the cliche that “having the builders in” often conjures up! 2 years on, & we have remained friends with them all & are loving our new home.

I have worked with Richard and his team on a few projects over the last couple of years. Richards’s knowledge and ability within the joinery trade is second to none. A fair amount of the work Richard did for me was on bespoke items that started off as an idea in my head that Richard was able to create in the real world !

A very calm and amenable tradesman that's easy to work with and very reliable with the skills tools and knowledge to back his firm and name. I would and have already recommend him to anyone requiring joinery or carpentry work - no matter how big or small the project may be

Tony Switch, Hatch

"I have used Green Beavers Ltd for all my joinery work on an extremely difficult bespoke new build home for myself and my family. I have found his work and the work of his employees to be efficient and effective.

Having agreed the scope of the work required, we established a time frame and budget. Richard completed the work on time, and within budget, and I am absolutely delighted with the results from the start of the first fix to the finishing point of a fantastic fitted kitchen and everything in between.

I have no hesitation in recommending the services of Richard Balaam, and should the occasion arise I will certainly be calling on him again as the need arises."

Wayne Paterson

"Richard, Green Beaver Ltd, has been undertaking carpentry and other building works for me on a couple of projects where he has overseen the sites and works from start to finish including organising and sourcing other trades for me. I have been completely satisfied with Richard and his team who have shown complete professionalism and honesty in all areas. His work is completed to a high standard and I am currently using him as a project manager on a barn conversion project. I would not hesitate to use Green Beaver for future projects."
