Niall was absolutely awesome! Made us look at the extension completely differently. To be honest I can’t believe the price and the value. I think he could double the price and it would still be value Thanks again Niall Dean and Claire (England, Beverley)
Niall gave me pre-purchase advice before making an offer on a property and it was excellent. Clear, detailed, and tailored to the specific house, not generic fluff. Saved me time, money, and a few bad decisions. Highly recommend.
I found Niall from his YouTube channel and decided to book a consultation to get some advice on the feasibility of a dormer extension to our property. He was very professional and very knowledgable about all of the challenges I faced. He had clearly done some homework before our call and the advice he gave likely saved me many thousands of pounds! I can't recommend his services enough and won't hesitate to book another consultation in future.
Having watched several of Niall's helpful YouTube videos I eventually became aware that he offered an online consultation service. I was in the market deciding between two properties, both of which needed work done, and took the plunge. As you would expect from his channel, Niall was helpful & friendly and came prepared. We had a very useful discussion and Niall pointed out several angles I hadn't even considered. It was a very useful consultation and I would definitely recommend!
We got in touch with Niall in the process of buying our property for advice on the works we wanted to do, particularly adding new windows to the property. Niall was both helpful and friendly, giving us actionable advice on what’s possible, where the stumbling blocks may be, and what to do next. He also highlighted a few things we have not considered and that will affect our plans going forward. Overall, very useful and worth the consultation money!
