We love client feedback!


One of the greatest things about building homes for clients is hearing positive feedback when the work is completed. At Tiptoe Builders, we know that hard work and quality craftsmanship bring client praise. We're pleased (and quite proud) to share the latest comments from our clients:

Work in Progress — Maida Vale

Our builders are working on a number of exciting projects throughout West London. Over the next few weeks, we will update the blog with work-in-progress photos. This week, we feature a three-bedroom mansion block flat in Maida Vale.

Our builders constructed four built-in cupboards, including two full height cupboards with drawers and sliding doors. We painted and decorated through the flat, and laid a new subfloor to prevent creaking floorboards and to reduce the noise factor for neighbours below. We also re-plastered the hallway of the flat, creating a smooth finish along the walls. 

Of course, there's still more work to be completed, but the property is shaping up to be a lovely family home...

Spring building projects

Spring is here, and along with milder temperatures and sunny skies, the season also brings a new crop of building renovations! Our builders are working throughout London on a variety of projects. Here's a peek into a few of our developments.

(All photos are "work in progress" images. We'll update with finished photos when the projects are complete.)

1. Several of our builders are spending quite a lot of time in Barnes, working on a full home refurbishment. Below is a photo of a wet room that's nearly completed. We've also included a photo of the reception room, below, where our builders added new ceilings and installed new electrical and audio wiring, including a Lutron system.






2. In another project, our builders decorated the walls and ceiling of a communal area in Maida Vale. Work also included sanding and varnishing the woodwork along the staircase (below).



3. Other projects include tiling, plumbing, installing underfloor heating, and completing the electrical preparation for a new kitchen in Kew. And over in Twickenham, our builders are decorating and completing the structural work of a two-story Twickenham house.

We'll have plenty more photos to share in the coming months... as well as details of some exciting new building renovations that we're starting in the coming weeks.

Mansion block refurbishment



We've recently completed another mansion block refurbishment. Our work included supplying and fitting a new modern kitchen and smartstone work top (photographed, above). We also built a bespoke wardrobe for the children's bedroom, extended existing wardrobes in the master bedroom, and decorated and added new electrical points throughout flat.

Little Venice Builders Project

Here are some 'Before' and 'In Progress' photos of a Tiptoe Builders refurbishment project in Little Venice. This three-bedroom home is undergoing some massive work, starting with knocking down the wall between the narrow, galley kitchen and opening it up to the reception area. Here is where our London building team is at in the project:




Stay tuned for the finished project...

Belgique - London Builders favourite source






You might think you're seeing a flawless wood floor in the photos above. In fact, you're looking at an exciting new porcelain product—one which imitates the look and feel of oak wood.

Produced by Casa Dolce Casa, the flooring is called Belgique and comes in five different versions, from a dark grey to a milky white. 

Tiptoe Builders have used Belgique tiles in two different projects, and we've been very impressed with the quality and finish. It's perfect for achieving a wood floor look in wet rooms, bathrooms and kitchens. 

Belgique is available in London at World End Tiles.

A complete transformation, don't you agree? We love the peek into the child's room as well — very sweet. This refurbishment was swiftly completed by Tiptoe Builders in a Maida Vale mansion block flat.
