What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Developers and main contractors who have repeatedly engaged PBM Contractors for demolition and site clearance form the bulk of the feedback, and their accounts settle on reliability, professionalism and safe delivery. Customers returning over many years describe contracted works being finished efficiently and without incident, whether the job is a full demolition, an old building needing careful hand-removal of tiles, or clearance of a complex site. A recurring theme is the fairness of the price quoted and the way the team keeps in touch across long delays; one client recalls that Richard assessed the property, listened carefully and stayed in contact when planning held the project back by two years.

Tidiness of finished sites draws praise, with neighbours noting how considerate the workforce was and how clean the area remained throughout operations. Helpfulness during pre-contract discussions as well as on site is singled out, along with the knowledge of crews working on schemes as varied as technology parks and town centre regeneration. Consistent workmanship, thorough planning and an approachable manner are cited repeatedly, and long-standing clients across the country continue to return.

Had a major demolition on an old building and approached PBM Contractors as well as a few other local companies. Richard came out to assess the property and listened to what we needed as we had to hand remove some tiles due to potential bats . They had done it all before . Gave me a very good fair price along with hoarding to be put up as well. The project was then delayed due to planning by 2 years however Richard stayed in touch and as soon as we sere ready he got started . They started on time, fenced everything up and his team were great with the neighbors on both sides, keeping them in teh loop and Richard giving them his personal number in case they needed to get in touch. The job was completed on time , the site cleared and levelled ready for construction , and the hoarding guy was great , putting up the secure wooden hoarding as required ready for construction. I would recommend Richard and his team as this is a family run business and i even got to meet his dad who started it . They will give you proper advice and know exactly what they are doing so no surprises and great ongoing communication through the job.

Really excellent service, 5 stars 🌟. The team were diligent, helpful and did a great job on a complex demolition. They also left the site near and tidy. Thank you!

Have used PBM on a number of demolition contracts over the last 10 years, their staff and operatives are both knowledgeable and skilled in their works. Pre-contract they are pro-active with methodology and approvals and their operations teams are professional throughout. Would highly recommend PBM to anyone.

Used PBM on numerous occasions and every time they've given us great service. Helpful at both pre-contract and contract stages and couldn't recommend them highly enough.
