Nev came out to design and plan my single storey extension with a new kitchen diner and w.c. Nev gave practical advice and options to suit my needs and assigned Ben and Ryan to deliver the build. Each week Ben would advise me of the work to be completed and without fail would deliver to time, budget and quality despite torrential rain, hail and snow. Ben offered solutions to achieve the required outcomes and pointed out pros and cons to enable informed decisions to be made. Ryan's plastering was finished to a high quality. Ben found ways to keep a separate family living space during the build and enable the use of my old cooker, washer and sink.
I am completely satisfied with the work that was carried out and the job was signed off without any issues. I would have no hesitation in recommending NMB for future work. NMB completely met all of my expectations and more.

Full kitchen and living room renovation. Nev worked with us to design our kitchen and created 3D visuals for us to see before work commenced. Easy to deal with throughout. High quality finish and workmanship. Builders did a great job, working quickly and to a high standard. Would highly recommend.

We couldn't be more pleased with our new kitchen. The work involved knocking through a structural wall, removal of chimney breast, new door and window, creation of new utility room and new downstairs toilet, plus full new kitchen. These guys are real professionals and we always felt like we were in safe hands. Nev spent lots of time with us going through the design, answering any questions and was always quick to respond to any queries. The fitting team were also exceptional.

We'd had some bad experiences with tradesmen before we approached Nev, some of them incompetent and unprofessional, others just plain criminal, so we were a little wary about getting more work done. Thankfully this didn't last long, because from the preliminary meeting right through to the job's completion we felt that we were in safe hands with the very best people on the job. Nev was highly attentive to any needs and queries we had, maintaining good communication

We're absolutely delighted with the finished results from Nev at NMB and his team. NMB are a breath of fresh air after dealing with many tradesmen over the years. From the first email enquiry which was responded to quickly, the subsequent quote which was delivered as promised and then the actual work which was top class. The team always left the house clean and tidy and were pleasant and helpful always. We're so happy we made the right decision, we can't recommend Nev enough to anyone and we will definitely be a repeat customer. Thanks again.

We have recently had a new Kitchen fitted by NMB. This was not a straight forward project as it required incorporating two rooms into one. We have not had the best of experiences with builders in the past but Nev, Ben and Ryan were great and very patient with us throughout the project. Nev first came round and immediately understood what our plans were and came up with various options including some we had never even thought about. Nev was able to show all options with CAD and

Everyone one at NMB were great from the very start and this continued throughout all stages of our project. We were really pleased with their attitude throughout the project and still can't quite believe how amazing it all looks. If you're thinking of using Nevin and his team we could not recommend them highly enough: - Nevin was patient following our initial quote and gave us time to consider different options and was happy to work with us and adjust costs/works accordingly

We recently used NMB for our kitchen renovation. The job involved turning 3 smaller rooms in to one large space which required installing steel joists. Whilst not everything went to plan (as with most projects of this size!), we always felt supported by Nev, with all obstacles being overcome quickly and effectively. The quality of work was exceptional and we have since chosen to use NMB for our bathroom refurb, as well as the remainder of our houseworks. NMB is not the

I can't recommend NMB highly enough, went very smoothly from design to installation. Highly professional job from Nev, Eddie and Liam. Kitchen was fitted during half term with the kids in the house and Eddie worked it so that there was minimal disruption, and the final kitchen is fantastic, with the fit and finish 100%. Also very trustworthy people. I will definitely contact NMB for any building work I need in the future.

North Manchester Builders were tasked with building a kitchen extension to our property and installing a new bathroom. This meant knocking through into our garage and raising the roof of the garage and constructing new external walls. The kitchen was chosen and installed through NMB and the entire project from start to finish took around 10 weeks which was bang on NMB's target. They were fantastic, Ben was on site every day and Nev coordinated everything else.
The project ran really smoothly and we are impressed with the high quality of the finish. Nev was on hand after the build had finished as well to answer any questions and sort out any small teething problems. Overall we're really happy with NMB, we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and we plan on using them again in the future for further building work on the house.
