Connell & McFadden Property Development Ltd

Internal insulation for two bedrooms. The existing plasterboard was removed from the ceilings and exterior walls and replaced with Kingspan insulation etc. It was a very messy, fiddly job. The guys were extremely tidy, friendly, professional and helpful. I'm really pleased with the result. Sean and Steven were a delight to have in the house and couldn't have done more to be helpful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

The service that I received from Steven was first class.

Steven was punctual, attentive to my requests, made helpful suggestions and performed an excellent job fitting Splashbacks to my kitchen.

I would definitely recommend and will use in the future

Great service. The new bathrooms look amazing. The fittings are very well done and the finish is excellent. They were happy to advise as we have never undertaken such a large project before. They explained everything before it happened and were happy to answer even our most stupid questions, of which there were many!

They put our mind at ease with both the kitchen, previous job, and this time with the bathrooms. Would highly recommend them for any job as they expect only the best of themselves and for their clients.

Connell & McFadden have been amazing during the work done in our new house. The job started late due to a delayed entry to our property however they remained calm and professional and got us into the property when required.

They always told us what was happening beforehand and communication was excellent at all times.

We will be getting more work done by them in the new year as we trust them to do a great job.

Got in contact with Connell and McFadden to help with a new power supply to our new shop. They did the work when they said they would, very quickly with no hassle which was great. In the end asked them to put a extractor fan which wasn’t any trouble at all! Great customer service will definitely use Connell and McFadden again for any works needed in the future.

Connell & McFadden completed our flat renovation in September where our flat was converted from one to two bedroom and the structural layout of the flat was changed to be a more efficient use of space. Our new kitchen and bathroom were also fitted at the same time. We cannot fault the quality of work delivered and are enjoying every aspect of the ‘new’ flat.

I want to leave a review because Sean and Steven at Connell & MacFadden provided such a good service and we've already recommended to others.

We had a reasonable large refurbishment project - structural work to remove load-bearing walls to make an open-plan kitchen/dining room, rewiring, extensive plumbing works, kitchen and utility installation and associated work such as plastering.

I got a quote from Connell and MacFadden because of their reviews on Trusted Trader. Sean was good to work with at the start and provided a detailed quote of the works and we were able to change specifications to keep the project within budget. The work was delayed during the first Lock Down but started in Spring 2021. It took about six weeks and despite additional work required was completed to schedule.

Steven was brilliant during the project. He was relaxed, reassuring and easy to work with. I think this made a big difference to how the project went - it made it much less stressful than it could have been. We were kept closely informed on progress and on all key decisions. Steven was on site most of the time it seemed and had a good team.

There was some extra work required and it was easy to work with Steven to work out the options and additional costs were very reasonable - one was the floor joists had failed in places in the dinning room so the floorboards was uneven. We sourced reclaimed pine boards similar to those in the kitchen and Steven replaced the joists and made the boards match the alignment in the kitchen.

Minor snagging issues were sorted with no problem.

I'm really pleased we used Connell and Macfadden for this project.

Photos are all taken from the same place.

Steven & his team transformed my aged & tired looking kitchen into a gleaming modern area of my house
The standard of work was first class & took less than 2 weeks to complete which included ripping out the old kitchen & plastering all walls and ceiling.
The final product definitely has the WOW! factor & communication with Steven was fantastic throughout the project.
Thoroughly professional & utterly reliable I would highly recommend Connell & McFadden to anyone in the future. Thank You.

Everytime, when we have the maintenance problem, Erin helps me to fix it immediately. It is so appreciated for her help so that we can live free from the maintenance problems. I am personally recommending this property agent.

We had our bathroom completely replaced by Connell & McFadden. We started the process during lockdown so the initial estimates were done on the basis of photos and my rough measurements. However, as soon as he was able, Sean came round and chatted about our requirements. The whole process was very professional and re-assuring. The works were carried out by Steven and his team. The guys were punctual, courteous, and took great pride in their work. They were very trustworthy and we felt comfortable leaving them to get on with things. They always tidied up before they left at night. We were absolutely delighted with their work and would have no hesitation in recommending them to family and friends.

We used this company to refurbish a laundry cupboard and make the best use of the space. The standard of work was first-class, the different teams arrived like clockwork and all the workers were polite and tidy. Sean came to the house on several occasions before the job started to check exactly what we wanted and advise on materials. We are very happy with the work done and would not hesitate to use this company again.

New Howdens kitchen plus utility and cloakroom. Included two new radiators and new flooring throughout.

I was very happy with the work.

The original quote was adapted to suit my budget. The communication throughout was excellent.

The whole team worked really hard and did the job in under two weeks. They were tidy and were excellent at working in a covid safe way.

The kitchen is good quality and a couple of minor snags were sorted promptly.

Highly recommend

I really can’t recommend this company enough. From the very first meeting to the finished job the service and professionalism has been first class. We had a full rewire, new kitchen, new bathroom and lots more but I think it’s easier to say we have a new home in an old shell. All the tradesmen that have attended have done a great job and nothing was too much of a problem to them. This work was carried out before and after the easing of the lockdown. This could have been a more stressful situation but the team kept us informed and helped us remain calm. We were recommended Connell and McFadden through two separate friends which gave us the confidence to go with them and if you do decide to use them you will be recommending them to your friends one day too.

Chose Connell & McFadden having read previous reviews on Trusted Trader. They removed old bathroom and separate WC and shower and replaced with new including designing and specifying goods. Also undertook electrical and carpentry work in the flat and recommended a decorator who was equally impressive. Sean and the team were very easy to work with. Quotes were detailed and clear and the work has been undertaken to a high standard throughout. We were absent during the works but Sean was excellent at keeping us informed of progress and we are delighted with the end result. We would have no hesitation in recommending them.

Following the spontaneous explosion of a toughened glass shower glass panel, which caused significant damage to the enamel steel bath and surrounds, I asked Connell & McFadden (who I had used for a previous project) to remove and replace the bath, install new glass panels and replace broken tiles - tasks requiring care and precision.
Throughout the process, Sean, Steven and the team provided a highly customer-focused, professional service; taking pride in the quality of their workmanship. They involved me throughout the process, clarifying my needs and preferences and responded promptly to any queries. Totally trust worthy, I would have no hesitation in recommending Connell & McFadden.

Connell & McFadden undertook a complete strip out and revamp of our bathroom, as well as stripping out and putting in new shelves in our boxroom. Sean met us at the beginning to take us carefully through all the options. He also remained in close touch throughout as we chose the fittings, replying promptly to emails, and visited again before the job started to work through the final options.

When the job started, his team turned up promptly, were easy to have in the house, and cleaned up at the end of the day. Sean kept a close eye on proceedings. When one of the walls was stripped, it turned out there was more work than anticipated to retile it, but Sean's tiler Mel worked over the weekend to finish the job to the planned timescale. Although this element cost a bit more than budgeted, Sean reduced the amount for other elements where less work was required, so the final bill was within one or two percent of the quote. There was one very small snagging issue, but Sean returned promptly and ensured that the issue was completely sorted out.

Although Connell & McFadden were not the cheapest quote we got, in terms of value for money for the final product, and peace of mind that you will get work done to a high standard without needing to chase the contractor, I would have no hesitation in recommending them and using them for future work.

We had a new kitchen installed , this included moving a wall to give is more room. We also had work done in our downstairs toilet and had a wall reinforced to take the weight of the new radiator which was installed in our living room. The guys also laid solid wood flooring throughout the ground level of our house.

From start to finish the guys have been brilliant, absolute professionals . We are delighted with the job they have done and wouldnt hesitate to recommend them . It really has been a pleasure dealing with them .

We recently had extensive renovations to our tenement flat upgrading the property to reconfigure kitchen/diner, add new bathroom and upgrade existing bathroom according to our building warrant and architects drawings. This involved removal of walls, inserting steel beams, building new internal wall, extensive plumbing, flooring, joinery, plastering and tiling. We chose Connell & McFadden based on the feedback from reviews and their approach to the project.
From the off, Sean took a keen interest in realising the plans and made useful suggestions to help achieve a high standard of finish. Stephen and the team arrived promptly each day - they were skilled tradesmen, punctual, polite and friendly and communications were excellent, keeping us updated on progress and checking back at key points.
We are delighted with the finish achieved and would have no hesitation in recommending Sean, Stephen and the team.

We had Connell and McFadden install a shower room in our bungalow attic conversion having chosen them based on the Trusted Trader reviews and Sean’s clear desire at the tender stage to deliver a high quality job that met our needs. Indeed, Sean worked closely with us and the architect from the outset to ensure an optimum design and construction started promptly on the agreed date. All the team were professional, customer-focused and diligent; arriving around 08:30 and staying until 16:00 on a daily basis - a welcome change from previous builders that we have had who either turned up late and disappeared half way through the day or didn’t appear at all!
As the project progressed, Sean’s advice was invaluable in determining the detailed layout and also in sourcing suitable suppliers for everything from the shower enclosure to the floor and wall tiles. Communications were excellent throughout, Sean always responding promptly to any queries. The project would have finished on time had it not being due to a delay by a supplier. That said, the over-run was only a few days and we are delighted with the final result, all the more so as the final costing was £50 less than the initial estimate; quite an achievement given the size of job.
We would have no hesitation recommending Connell and McFadden and would definitely use them for any future building work.

Connell and McFadden did a fantastic job of upgrading our Victorian flat, transforming kitchen, bathroom and boxroom in a very short time and to a very high standard.
Steven is great to deal with, giving regular email updates and responding to queries right away. He was willing to provide detailed advice and we took on board a number of his suggestions on how to best approach the project.
We would not hesitate to recommend this contractor to family and friends.
