"Edi and Eljon truly cared about helping us create our dream family home"

We worked with Optimal Build on the full gut renovation of our home in Belsize Park and we couldn't recommend them high enough. For one, they did an amazing job on the building works, putting a huge amount of effort and attention to detail into a highly complex project, which ranged from deep structural work (including reinforcing the foundations, extending towards the back and side, building a new terrace and putting in place all new wiring and plumbing) to all of the interior finishes such as joinery, kitchen, crittall windows and hard-wood flooring. For another, they were a great team to work with. Edi and Eljon truly cared about helping us create our dream family home, and as such they were incredibly accommodating when it came to listening to our needs and helping us find solutions when issues came up along the way. Moreover, since the works have been completed, they have been incredibly responsive to any new issues coming up (which is unfortunately unavoidable with any building project!), standing readily to hand to help us settle into our new home and thereafter. And finally, they did a great job managing all of the other stakeholers involved in the project - keeping  neighbours happy, working well with our archtects, garden designers and landscapers, etc. I'm very happy to say that we would work with them again any time!

“A smooth and enjoyable experience”

As new homeowners, renovating your first house can be a very daunting and stressful experience. But working with Edi and the team have made the whole process such a smooth and enjoyable experience. They put so much care into everything they do and take pride in their job. We are lucky to call Edi a friend now!Martina and Joe

"He came up with creative solutions to issues as they arose"

"We chose to work with Optimal because Edi seemed genuinely excited about our project. He came up with creative solutions to issues as they arose, and was always very willing to work with our ideas and suggestions. Our project was taking place right through the first lockdown, and even though there was some inevitable disruption, we always had confidence in the Optimal team. The project management ran extremely smoothly and communication between Optimal, our architect, and us as the clients ensured there were no nasty surprises. We remain extremely pleased with the quality and finish of the work that Optimal did for us and we would (and have) recommend them to others."Gareth and Richard

"Always able to face any problem practically and without any fuss"

We couldn’t be happier with the work Optimal Build did on our house. Our renovation was extensive and took eight months to complete. Any renovation is challenging, but ours also happened to collide with the pandemic. Through all the complications and challenges that presented themselves, Edi and the team were always able to face any problem practically and without any fuss - a true pleasure to work with. They achieved a beautiful finish in our home and we take such pleasure from it. We still stay in touch with Edi – and he absolutely saved the day when we ran into trouble with some rogue roofers after the renovation had been completed! Couldn’t recommend Edi and the team highly enough!

"Always kept fully informed on the progress"

We would like to take this opportunity to express our appreciation for the excellent work Optimal carried out whilst building our extension and the complete refurbishment of the rest of the house. We were delighted with the quality of work and reliability of the team throughout.

The team worked extremely hard and we were impressed with the thoroughness of their work. It was very reassuring that we were kept fully informed of progress. On a number of occasions they questioned the architect’s specifications to ensure the best outcome for the build.

The initial quote was competitive and whilst there were a couple of unforeseen issues and changes which arose (as with all builds), these were dealt with promptly and professionally. Optimal kept us fully informed all the way through on how the costs were going and we found them to be extremely honest, completing the works within the agreed budget and within the original timescales quoted – not an easy thing to do during the COVID lockdown.

The quality of workmanship throughout was second to none. We would be happy to recommend Optimal as a reliable, professional and competitive building firm. Many thanks once again for doing such a great job

"The house is everything we wished for"

Edi and Jon at Optimal were instrumental in helping us build the home we now live in and expect to for many, many years to come. From the moment we tendered the work to multiple bidders they stood out as a unique combination of practical, professional and extremely diligent. The pride they take in their work is clear – not ‘just’ in the act of construction but in the diligence they show in reviewing – and sometimes correcting – the structural drawings of others; in the creativity they show when overcoming unforeseeable scenarios; in the decimal point accuracy of every quote and estimate they made; in the immaculate state they left the site in at the end of every day; in the responsiveness to any types of questions.  A building project like the one we undertook will be stressful – but with Jon and Edi we felt in safe hands throughout. And needless to say, the house is everything we wished for.
