Home Builder Awards 2026

5 One client reported: "We spent a long time looking for a house. We were close to buying a new build, but the gardens were very small and every older house we liked needed a full renovation, which felt overwhelming. Then we got chatting to John from JK Home Improvements. He even came to view houses with us to help decide which one had the best renovation potential. He told us straight up that the smartest move was to buy an older house and renovate it properly so you end up with a new build in an established estate. That advice changed everything. From the minute the job started, John and Faye were unreal. They took all the overwhelm and confusion out of a full renovation and made the whole thing feel simple. They set up a WhatsApp group and every single question we had was answered straight away. What is meant to be one of the most stressful things you can do was completely hassle free. I genuinely cannot believe how smooth and easy the entire process was. They started in October and had us moved in on time for Christmas, which is some turnaround. The standard of work is top class. The attention to detail is next level. Nothing was rushed and everything was finished properly. People on our road have stopped to admire the house and we have had random people calling in asking who did the work. John and Faye are professional, sound, easy to deal with, and the quality of their work speaks for itself. We could not recommend JK Home Improvements enough. If you are thinking of renovating, talk to them first. It is the best decision we made." While another shared: “I had my attic spray foam insulation done by JK Home Improvements. I can feel a massive difference with retaining heat in the house and attic. John is very friendly and customer-focused; his business standards are very high. After the team completed the work, John thoroughly checked all the work conducted and made sure everything was done correctly. I am delighted that I have made the right decision to let JK Home Improvements to complete this job. I would highly recommend JK Home Improvements if you are looking to get anything done to your house.” And a final client said: “From start to finish, the whole process was smooth and well-managed. Communication was excellent throughout. We received regular updates during the build, including video walkthroughs when we could not be on site. One of the things we really appreciated was the transparency around costs; there were no hidden surprises. Overall, we had a great experience, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend JK Home Improvements to anyone thinking about building or renovating. They made what could have been a really stressful project feel straightforward and well-organised, and the end result speaks for itself.” In less than two decades, the team has successfully established JK Home Improvements as a trusted partner to homeowners across the country.
