Andy Durham RIBA, Sycamore Bank
"R&B Building Services were appointed as General Contractor for the refurbishment of Sycamore Bank, Hetton. Under most extreme and difficult winter conditions their performance was outstanding, they produced a first class job, on time and on budget. It was a pleasure to work with this company and I would have no hesitation in recommending them for work of a similar nature."

Ian Stubbs, Kone Plc, Warrington
"R&B completed the build of 3 internal offices in our already working building. They made the process very easy for us right from the planning stage and worked around us to complete the works with no disruption at all. The quality of work was better than expected and we will definitely use them again in the future"

Mr & Mrs Braithwaite, Harrogate
"We chose R&B Building Services to carry out work on our property and were delighted with the outcome. The job was competitively priced, carried out to a high standard and completed on time. James Hill and his team were professional, courteous and knowledgeable. They would be our first choice for any future work"

Kevin Smith, Manufacturing Manager, Dales Pharmaceuticals
"R&B Building Services have carried out various civils projects on our site and I have found their work to be of a very high standard which is critical in a pharmaceutical environment. Their costings are typical for the size of company they are and so their continued selection for contracts is based on the quality and timeliness of the services they provide.
Having had experience in the past of contractors taking advantage of variations to the original scope of works, I was pleasantly surprised with R&B’s approach in this area. All variations were agreed in real time and were reasonably priced. In some cases, small “extras” were absorbed by the contractor, again something that is rare these days."

Andrew Ahern, Director of Facilities, Wyndham Exchange & Rentals
"We started our relationship with R&B Building Services in 2004 and have been extremely pleased with their work over the last 7 years.
Whenever we have been in need of help, we have always been able to count on R&B to come through for us. Whenever we have encountered a problem, the company have always been quick to rectify the problem, even to the point of James coming to site, putting on a tool belt and fixing the problem personally. We have always felt a problem really isn't a problem unless someone refuses to make it right. R&B has always responded very favourably for us and we know they will respond anytime 24 hours 7 days a week.
We are proud to present R&B to other businesses and Wyndham look forward to working with them for many years to come.
All in all, I have been very pleased with the levels of service provided: very high standard of work, completion on time, and the company is small enough to give good value for money."

Managing Director, Naylor-Smith Properties
"R&B Building Services have carried out numerous pieces of work for us over the last few years and we have always been very satisfied with the standard of work and professional and efficient service. The team recently refurbished one of our units converting the top floor from a shell into modern offices. The works consisted of partitioning, new windows, new heating system, insulation, plastering and decoration. We were delighted with the work which was competitively priced and completed within the required timescale. We will continue to use R&B Building Services for any future projects."

"We employed R&B Building Services in December 2010 to re-furbish an adjacent property to The Angel Inn. This has been an extensive internal re-build and has been carried out with care and efficiency.
We have been very pleased with our dealings with James Hill and his company and would be happy to recommend them to others."
