CUSTOMER FEEDBACK
In our clients’ words.
Feedback shared with Greyson & Cole about feasibility, pre-construction and tender support. Individual experiences do not guarantee future project outcomes.
★★★★★
We were looking at buying a property to renovate and I wanted someone to properly go through the numbers before we committed. Greyson & Cole put together the feasibility and gave us a much clearer idea of what the project was actually going to cost. There were a couple of things I’d completely missed in my own budget as well. Really useful and straightforward service.
★★★★★
Used Greyson & Cole for the pre-construction side of our house renovation. What I liked most was how transparent everything was. Costs were explained properly rather than just giving us one big figure with no detail behind it. The forecast ended up being pretty close to where the contractor prices came back which gave us a lot more confidence going into the build.
★★★★★
I had three builder quotes for an extension and honestly couldn’t tell which one was actually offering the best value. They reviewed the tenders, highlighted what was missing from each one and helped me compare them properly. Ended up choosing a different contractor than I originally would’ve done. Money well spent.
★★★★★
Really happy with the feasibility report. It wasn’t full of construction jargon and they actually explained the numbers to us afterwards. We were planning quite a large refurbishment and wanted to know whether our budget was realistic before going any further. Got a clear answer without anyone trying to oversell us additional services.
★★★★★
We’d never done a major renovation before so the tender process was probably the part we were most unsure about. Greyson & Cole helped organise everything and went through the returned quotes with us. They spotted exclusions in one quote that we definitely wouldn’t have noticed ourselves. Very professional but still easy to deal with.
★★★★★
Had a feasibility assessment done on a property I was considering converting and refurbishing. Didn’t just tell me what I wanted to hear which I appreciated. They showed where the numbers worked, where they were tight and what I needed to allow as contingency. I’d definitely use them again before taking on another property.
★★★★★
I originally contacted Greyson & Cole because the quotes I was getting from builders were all over the place. They helped tighten up the scope and tender information so everyone was actually pricing the same work. The second round of quotes was much easier to compare. Probably saved me a lot of headaches later on.
★★★★★
I liked that there was no pressure to push ahead with the project. The feasibility basically showed us that what we originally wanted to do would’ve stretched the budget too far. They then showed us a more realistic option and what that would roughly cost. Much better finding that out before we’d appointed a builder.
★★★★★
We approached Greyson & Cole for help before renovating our home as neither of us knew much about construction contracts or tenders. They made the whole process feel a lot less complicated. We knew what builders needed to price, what questions to ask and what should actually be included. Everything felt very open and transparent.
★★★★★
The biggest benefit for us was having a realistic cost forecast before getting too far into the design. It meant we could make a few changes early rather than discovering we were over budget once builders started quoting. The report was detailed but still understandable for someone who isn’t in construction.
★★★★★
They reviewed the costs and tender returns for our residential refurbishment. One contractor looked cheaper initially but after the exclusions were taken into account there wasn’t actually much between the quotes. Having someone independently go through it gave us a lot more confidence before signing anything.
★★★★★
Very straightforward to deal with. I mainly wanted to know whether the budget I had in mind was realistic for the work we wanted done. They didn’t overcomplicate it and gave me a clear view of what was achievable and where I needed to allow more.
★★★★★
Good value for money. The feasibility work gave me enough information to decide whether I actually wanted to proceed with the property. I appreciated that the advice wasn’t just focused on getting me to spend more.
★★★★★
We were renovating an older house and there were quite a few unknowns. The feasibility report was realistic about that and included sensible contingency rather than pretending everything could be predicted perfectly. I found that approach much more trustworthy.
★★★★★
Really helpful for first-time renovators. There were so many costs we’d never even thought about before speaking to them. The budget was broken down in a way that actually made sense and gave us a much better idea of what we could afford.
★★★★★
We weren’t sure whether to extend or completely reconfigure the existing house. The initial cost work helped us compare the options properly. It gave us the confidence to make the decision before spending more money on design work.
★★★★★
The tender review was probably the most valuable part for us. The cheapest quote wasn’t actually the cheapest once all the missing items were considered. Greyson & Cole explained everything in plain English and helped us ask the right questions before appointing anyone.
★★★★★
Really approachable and easy to work with. I’m not from a construction background and never felt like anything was being explained over my head. They took the time to talk me through the budget and the tender process properly.
★★★★★
I had already done my own rough cost estimate but wanted someone independent to check it. They picked up several areas where I’d underestimated the work and also a couple where I’d allowed too much. The final budget felt much more realistic afterwards.
★★★★★
We contacted Greyson & Cole quite early because we wanted to know whether our plans actually made financial sense. That ended up being the right decision because we changed parts of the design before going any further. Saved us from wasting time pricing something that was outside our budget.
★★★★★
What impressed me most was the level of detail in the tender comparison. Instead of just saying which quote was lower, they showed where each contractor had priced things differently and what needed clarifying. Made it much easier to make an informed decision.
★★★★★
The feasibility report helped us understand that our original specification was probably too ambitious for the budget. They suggested where the biggest cost pressures were so we could make changes without completely changing the project.
