What our customers say

From our first meeting with Sebastian and Marius we felt confident they could provide us with the loft conversion we wanted (within our very tight budget) and they did not fail to deliver! Everything their service offered was hugely impressive - their regular communication to update us on the various stages of the project, as well as quick reactions to our many queries; the extremely tidy, professional and friendly team of builders working on site; the numerous cost saving tips and most importantly the fantastic finish and the fact the work was done so quickly. This was a huge undertaking for us and they made it so easy! We have no hesitation in recommending them for any project, big or small. We will definitely be using them again for any future work. They are a delight!

Terry Gager

SimplyEasy Refurbs were head and shoulders above the other companies who came to quote for a loft extension. Sebastian and Marius make an excellent team and the project was completed efficiently and to a very high standard. I would not hesitate to recommend or use again.

Jojo Ryan

Sebastian and Marius are the perfect team, extremely helpful, professional and diligent with all their work. They were extremely helpful when I wanted changes from the originally agreed specifications, and went out of their way to help - even with things that weren't part of the building works (e.g. they helped take my bed upstairs!). I've used 3 different building companies in my house, and Simplyeasy were miles above the other 2. They stick to their timelines, get their work done quickly and professionally, and nothing is too much hassle for them. I'm extremely happy with how the project has turned out - the new room and bathroom look incredible, and really recommend both Sebastian and Marius, as well as the rest of the team, as great people to work with.

Sami Khan

Really brilliant, efficient and honest service. The work was completed to a really high standard, everything left neatly and cared for and everyone we met was extremely professional and polite (including towards some quite difficult neighbours!). We even suggested work that needed doing, and were told that it wasn’t necessary - no attempts to make an extra buck. We would highly recommend Simply Easy Refurbs and they’re top of our list for future work. Really great to have a trustworthy team out there.
