Rear Kitchen-Dining Room Extension

To Whom it may concern: Feedback for our Kitchen Extension built Oct 2018 to February 2019, Completed by Parkview Construction Jack was very patient and must have spent six long sessions discussing options. He wasn’t at any point pushy even though we must have stretched him! We found that Jack is an experienced builder and so is able to impart information he has learnt from similar jobs. We were lucky in that he had just completed a very similar project for a close neighbour, which proved very helpful for both of us. . Jack is excellent at giving weekly and daily updates. In the four months of work, he visited every day at 7.30 to discuss the day’s plans. He would generally visit several times a day to monitor progress and would call at the end of the day to give an overview. Jack has some fantastic staff working for him. All have their specialisms. They are amazingly punctual and all good natured with a great sense of humour. The work started in October when the weather was getting colder, and the evenings drawing in. Jack agreed to move the boiler right at the beginning of the work, otherwise we would have been without heating. A temporary kitchen was then set up which was a great relief for us. There were some concerns, Jack would always listen and resolve these in a timely and professional manner. Jack would update us of unexpected items that would arise together with associated costs. Similarly for any additional work that we requested, Jack would always inform us on the costs. Jack would provide us with a statement of account regularly, which was helpful to ensure we kept within our budget. Jack has been excellent throughout. Even with the snagging issues since the work was completed. Everything was sorted out without any problems very quickly. We are delighted with the completed product; the finished result exceeded our expectations. Would definitely use Parkview again for other projects, and we have no hesitation in recommending Parkview Construction.

Kitchen-Living Area and Utility Extension

To Whom it May Concern, Jack and his team completed a large kitchen extension, utility room and patio for us, completing the works in March of this year. We are absolutely delighted with the outcome and quality of work. Jack is outstanding in his approach to the works and will always work hard to resolve any issues that will inevitability come up. He was always here at the beginning and end of the day to discuss any issues. His team were always punctual at 7.30 every day and worked until 4.30 and so progress was very rapid. We liked the way Jack would complete a section of the work, and when we were happy he would continue on to the next section. We cannot recommend Jack and team highly enough.

House Refurbishment

Trustworthy and very professional

We used Parkview and Jack Koumis who runs it, in our previous property to repair extensive water damage caused by a leak. When we bought our new home, I didn’t even look for another company as I knew I wanted Jack to do the work. Our new home needed lots of fitted furniture to be removed, old carpet removal and floor preparation, walls stripping, re-plastering and repainting, a new bathroom, a wall knocking out and RSJ installing, electrics overhaul, sound proof flooring, floors sanding, staining and re-varnishing, water pump installation and more. It was a very big job. Jack and his guys were completely professional and we are delighted with the result. Jack is very accessible and quick to respond to messages and queries. He was always happy to meet on site to run through issues or things I wanted doing. Once the work was complete, he was extremely patient with all the ‘snagging’ I wanted doing. I had complete trust in him and hope he will do our kitchen extension in a few years. I could not recommend Parkview and Jack Koumis highly enough.

Thank you Jack for everything.   You have been quite exceptional, Elizabeth is really delighted and you and your guys could not have been cleaner, more considerate or done a better job, not to mention how quickly it has been done.  We would both be happy to provide references and write testimonials for you. I have never worked with a better team.  I hope that you would be happy to work with me again. Best Wishes

Rear Kitchen/Living Room Extension/House Refurbishment

We had a rear extension, bathroom, kitchen, and house refurbishment carried out. We were very impressed with Parkview Construction, and very happy wit the finish product. Jack made himself available for questions any time day or night, and gave us a detailed daily update, which we found incredibly useful. His team, are professional, efficient and great at what they do. We would not hesitate in recommending Parkview to anyone undertaking similar works.
E Darcy - London N21 - 01-Dec-16

Garage Refurbishment

Dear Jack, “Excellent work, and excellent communication throughout a long process. This was a difficult job because all the owners of the property were absent: Parkview communicated clearly with us to prepare what was needed, and to keep us posted on the work; they also worked calmly with the needs of different tenants. The billing was really straightforward and carefully explained. A stressful experience was made much, much easier by Parkview.”
Katherine - London Road N4 - 01-Feb-17

Rear Kitchen/Living Room Extension

We found Jack and his team at Parkview construction to be very professional and dedicated to the job at hand. We had an ground floor kitchen extension and the job was done very professionally. Any queries and changes were talked through and explained properly.   We found Gabby and Michael were both hardworking, conscientious and tidy.   We decided to deal with building control ourselves and in hindsight would employ a company to deal with the inspectors. Also, as clients it was important to be clear and unambiguous in communications, however any misunderstandings or problems were resolved in a timely manner.   One thing to value in a company is trust and honesty, and Jack and his team displayed these qualities in abundance.   I would definitely recommend them and would employ them again.
Sheeraz Ahmed - London E11 - 01-Dec-16

Rear Kitchen Extension

Parkview built a rear garden extension and downstairs toilet. Excellent work. Staff pleasant, courteous and punctual. Jack kept me informed on a daily basis of all works. He made the process pleasurable. Would highly recommend his firm. Fantastic customer service.

Dear Jack, Just to say thank you for the wonderful work, you and your lads carried out. The kitchen looks wonderful, the new windows make a bug difference, and the porch is a pleasure to have. Many thanks

Conversion of Single Property into Multiple Flats

Dear Jack Thank you so much for the work on the beautiful flats. We are all delighted with them and it is wonderful for everyone to have their own home. I was very worried at the start as there could have been so many problems but we have reached the end and the result is fantastic! I hope you keep busy and I am sure we will have cause to be in touch again. Sincere thanks for such a smooth project and great workmanship.

Kitchen Refurbishment / Structural Alterations

The work completed by Parkview Construction has given our house a fantastic living space. The team were polite, considerate, flexible and efficient. Jack managed the project closely and kept everything running smoothly, ensuring we were always consulted and kept informed. Where there were unforeseen developments, Jack would offer solutions and set out cost implications. We are delighted with the finished work. Richard Robinson, N21

Rear Kitchen Extension / Refurbishment

Jack has recently completed a ground floor extension and refurbishment in my house. The work involved designing a new layout for the ground floor of the house, removal of internal walls to create an open living environment, extension of the kitchen and conservatory area, and design and fitting of a new fully integrated kitchen. Throughout the work Jack and his team provided an excellent service. Security at the property was paramount to me and I could fully trust the team with my home. The team was friendly and kept me fully informed on what was being done. As the work proceeded, I needed some extra work carrying out and Jack was flexible about this, and made every endeavour to accommodate my needs.  Overall I'm very pleased with the work and would fully recommend Jack and the team.

General Building

A short note to express our satisfaction with your company. Having dealt with with your company for a while now, we find you and your team, extremely professional in your work, reliable and approachable. Thank you for maintaining our properties. 11-Jul-07

Refurbishment

To whom it may concern, " A very good job by Parkview Construction lead by Jack Koumis. This was to complete some internal building and electrical work in our through lounge. Jack was flexible when our requirements changed slightly after the initial quote, All work was completed 1 week before our deadline and a couple of minor items that needed finishing off were attended to the next day. So if you need a job doing properly I recommend Parkview Construction rather than taking your chances on a random worker from a website !"
Colin Creer - London EN1 - 02-Feb-15

Kitchen Refurbishment

Dear Jack, I just wanted to put on record our sincere thanks for helping us out with the works at our house. When we had a drain collapse, the insurance company needed us, at very short notice, to find someone for so-called “enabling works” which amounted to taking the whole kitchen out and then putting it all back again a few days later. You stepped into the breach, fitted in with the drains company’s schedule and put up with their (repeated) delays in completing the work. Your workmen turned up spot on time and were so helpful. Everything was taken out and put back with no breakages, a triumph in itself as the kitchen cupboards, etc. were pretty old. It was perfectly done – one day the kitchen wasn’t there and a few days later it was back again, with minimal fuss and mess. Thank you so much. We will certainly use you again if (when) we need building works done and will recommend you to our friends. With all best wishes,

Refurbishment / Double Glazing

Hello Mrs Petit, Just had some building work completed by Parkview Construction based in Winchmore Hill and is a member of FMB, what a totally different experience from start to finish, Jack Koumis, project manager and his crew gave a first class service and all was completed to a high standard.
Mrs C Martin - London E11 - 04-Aug-14

House Refurbishment

To whom it may concern, We undertook a major refurbishment project after purchasing an old house which needed updating. After researching many builders we found Parkview Construction on the internet. We were impressed by what we read and contacted its founder Jack Koumis. From the onset we found Jack to be punctual, knowledgeable, visionary and on hand to give us expert advice on the planning design and installation. Jack took control of the whole process and with his team of men set about to complete the work ahead of schedule in a professional expert manner. We would definitely use Jack and his team again if needed and would recommend him to others.

Small Refurbishment

To Whom it May Concern, After an horrendous experience with a previous building company, I was very apprehensive and anxious over this building work, I needn't have worried, all went according to plan, very professional company, high standard of work. Looking forward to my next project with them. Jack Koumis and his team were a pleasure to work with.
Carol Martin - London E11 - 16-Jul-14

Kitchen Refurbishment

To Whom it May Concern, After an unhappy experience with our first builders on a kitchen project, we brought in Jack Koumis and Parkview Construction to remedy the serious problems with which we were left. His excellent team rebuilt and refitted the entire kitchen to a standard far higher than the original would have been. They were conscientious, skilled, fairly priced, and left the property clean and in good order. They offered excellent advice whenever required. We had not expected that the kitchen could be fixed, let alone improved upon, and we are absolutely thrilled with the final result. We would not hesitate to recommend Jack and Parkview Construction, and would certainly use them again.
Charles Bresica - London NW6 - 22-Nov-13

Kitchen Refurbishment / Structural Alterations

I would highly recommend Jack and his Parkview team. We selected Parkview for work on our home involving structural work and demolition, construction of new rooms, storage, wc and kitchen fitting. We could not have been happier with the process. The team were always on time, worked incredibly hard, were considerate, polite and respectful turning a stressful time in our lives into a pleasure. Mike’s skills are second to none, and his proactive suggestions around the fitting of our kitchen resulted in a significantly better finish than would have been achieved if keeping directly to the plans. Having worked with a number of contractors throughout the renovation process we have found Parkview to be head and shoulders above the rest. Excellent communication and regular contact throughout. All work was completed on, or ahead of time and with exceptional quality. We cannot recommend Parkview highly enough and look forward to working with them again in the future.
Vicky West - London N21 - 21-Nov-13

Structural Alterations / Kitchen Refurbishment

Dear Jack and Team, Thanks so much for all your hard work on our home, and for making a disruptive experience as easy as possible for us. Your consideration and the respectful way the team worked is much appreciated.

Roofing

Hi Jack, Thank you (and your team) for all your hard work replacing our roof. It was a pleasure to work with you and I would happily do so again. In particular your calm professionalism in the face of some demanding neighbours was much appreciated. Not to mention getting the work completed on schedule for our home birth! Feel free to pass on my email address if any future customers wish to view the roof work.
Chad Goodyear - London NW1 - 15-Aug-13

Roof Replacement

Dear Jack, ‘We were pleased with the work Parkview carried out for us. Wall and roof repairs were needed very high up and in an awkward position, but Park View worked out the logistics with no bother, and the work was completed well within time. The men were very unobtrusive, quietly getting on with the job. Jack was very quick to respond to any enquiries we raised. Denstead Managements, Hampstead’, London NW3, June 2013. Many thanks for a job well done.
Jill and Keith - London NW3 - 18-Jul-13

Garden Wall

We were very happy with the competitive quote we received from Parkview Construction for rebuilding our damaged front wall, having invited several other building companies to provide quotes as well. Jack's team commenced the rebuild soon after I accepted their quote. Jack kept me updated throughout the rebuild and delivered the work within the expected timescale. His workmen were very professional, friendly and courteous and the site was left neat and tidy once the work had been completed. I would happily recommend Parkview Construction to anyone. Many thanks for your hard work, Parkview Construction!
Mrs Mautby - London N7 - 14-Apr-13

Flat Refurbishment

With our main residence in France, having purchased a property in London, both my wife and I were concerned on how we were going to manage the proposed refurbishment. Jack Koumis, of Parkview Construction was recommended to us. We consider him to be an absolute star. Jack and his team were great from start to finish. Once the keys were handed over, Parkview just got on with the job, Jack regularly kept us updated, we would occasionally travel to London to check on progress, other than this, the whole project was a pleasure. Parkview started on the date agreed, and completed on time as they said they would. The quality of the work is excellent and we feel confident in recommending Jack and Parkview.
Dr Kiran / Alison Rao - London SW11 - 15-Jan-13

Rear Kitchen / Bathroom Extension

Dear Jack, Just to say, thank you ever so much to you and your team for all your efforts. The extension looks absolutely fantastic. As an architect, it is difficult to find a builder who does not deviate to what is agreed. You did everything according to the schedule, any concerns I had were addressed immediately and the end result is impressive.
David Abdo - London N11 - 12-Nov-12

Part New Build / Part Conversion

Parkview undertook a very complex and difficult building project for me. The quality of the work and professionalism were second to none. Aside from the quality, what sets them apart from other building company’s was that they solved problems rather than created them, turned up when they said were going to and got the job done with efficiency and as little stress as possible. I have no hesitation in recommending them to new customers.
Leon Charles Accountants - London W1 - 25-Apr-12

Extensions

We anticipated the arrival of ‘the builders’ with some trepidation, especially on what was easily the largest building project we had undertaken but our anxieties were soon dispelled. Within a couple of weeks of the start of the project, Jack and his team seemed almost part of the family. Jack himself was very patient in answering our many questions and addressing our concerns and his team were on site every day and worked conscientiously and, considering what was being done, with less mess and disruption than we had feared. The work kept to Jack’s estimated timetable, the only delay being caused by our failure to have the necessary fittings/accessories on site on time, and we were satisfied with the quality and appearance of the end product.
John Sanderson - Barnet EN5 - 23-Nov-10

Dear Jack, Thank you for all your efforts, we are very happy with the work that was done. Your staff were friendly, puctual and hardworking at all times. We will certainly consider using Parkview again in the future. Best Wishes
Sam Childs - Nazareth Care Centre - London N21 - 19-Feb-10

We greatly appreciate the work Parkview did in refurbishing and extending our house. The work done was of a good standard and completed in a reasonable time without being rushed. The Parkview team were all people we felt comfortable having around the house and Jack was always on hand to answer our questions and resolve any issues. I would definitely recommend Parkview.”
Robert Hutchinson - Finchley - London N12 - 12-Feb-10

Loft Conversion

Dear Jack, This letter is to say “thank you very much” to both yourself and all the teams of men who worked so hard here on our loft extension. We greatly valued your regular visits at all stages of the project, and the way everything which arose, was promptly dealt with by yourself and the workmen. The men were all very easy to get along with and all were anxious to please. We appreciated their prompt time-keeping and willingness to cope with changes and difficulties that inevitably occurred. They certainly tried hard to limit disturbing us. It was also good to realise that all the independent inspectors were impressed with the quality of the building work at each relevant stage – it gave us necessary confidence in the progress too. With renewed thanks to all concerned – especially those who spent so many weeks here. They will be missed!

Dear Jack, Ref: Southfields, London NW4 I have enjoyed working with you on this project and am pleases with the work you and your team have carried out, and hope it is not too long in the future we can work together on perhaps a larger scheme but one at least as equally enjoyable.
Richard Hazell - Architect - London N3 - 20-May-09

House Refurbishment

Dear Parkview Construction, Undertaking a house renovation for the first time is a daunting task particularly when you don’t have a builder that you know and trust. I found Parkview on the internet and decided to meet with them as they were signed up to the Government’s Trust Mark Scheme. The subsequent full refurbishment of our 3 bed house went very smoothly, and actually was complete ahead of schedule. Everyone involved was friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and most importantly on site from day one until the job was complete. I could not have asked for a better team. I would definitely use Jack Koumis and his team again and would highly recommend Parkview to anyone looking for a reliable builder. Kind Regards,
Caroline Osborne - Muswell Hill - London N10 - 11-Jan-09

Extension / Refurbishment

Dear Jack and all the staff at Parkview, Over the years I have carried out a number of building projects and have always found them to be stressful at the best of times. Each time I finish I say to myself never again. With my past experiences, I thought I would never find a good building company which I could deal with on a one to one basis, and who understood my concerns in achieving the overal finish look of my project. Both my wife and I would like to say thank you to you all for an absolutely great job. The extension looks great, the garden patio is wonderful and the Bar-B-Q at the bottom of the garden has turned out to be be a great social area. Many thanks.

“Thank you Parkview Construction for the wonderful top to bottom renovation and refurbishment you gave my house. Everybody was friendly and professional and I was always confident about the progress of the project. When I put my house on the market I had a great offer in three weeks – a lot of the credit for that goes to Parkview. My only regret is that it’s not me who will have the pleasure of living there! Many Thanks.
Kate Tucker - Hackney - London E8 - 17-Mar-08

Flat Refurbishment

“After years of using various builders, it’s been great to actually find a company that I’d use more than once. The guys at parkview displayed excellent workmanship and were always punctual, polite and cleaned up after themselves each day. I’m especially appreciative of Jack’s helpful attitude to my many questions about the work that was going on. In an industry of often disappointing standards, this is finally a company that I’d recommend to other people.” Many thanks again – when I eventually need more work doing, I’ll be in touch.

Dear Mr Koumis, I would like to extend my thanks to your company and staff for their first rate work on my flat. After dealing with so many building disputes on behalf of clients, I was relieved to engage a firm that delivers as promised and with no hitches. I would have no hesitation in recommending your company to others. Mr M Pack
M Pack - London N5 - 12-May-05

Loft Extension

Jack Koumis and his team were highly professional finishing my loft conversion on time, they also followed my architect’s instructions to the letter and when they were not sure always asked. The team arrived each day at 7.30am and left at 4pm leaving my house clean and tidy each day, I completely trusted all the guys and let them have a set of keys to make my life easier all round. Three months after the job was finished Parkview came back to do any snagging which as the works settled there was a little amount to do. This was done to the satisfaction of both myself and my architect and I am delighted with the finished job. I have since recommended Parkview on a few jobs and I am about to move house and have already contacted Parkview to come and give me an estimate for another loft conversion as well as a number of other work. I can honestly say I would highly recommend Parkview to anyone.
Michael Tyrell - London SE15 - 12-May-05

Jack Koumis and his team have been completely reliable. They were punctual, always leaving things tidy at the end of the day and I really appreciated the daily updates on the progress of the job. The disruptions were minimal thanks to Jack’s organisation and the calm and competent tradesmen.

House Refurbishment

“ I had the good fortune to have found Mr Koumis to undertake the refurbishment of my Victorian terrace house. Mr Koumis has finally broken the stereotype I always held to be true, that of builders being late, unreliable and untrustworthy. Since inception of the project at my house not a day went by without the Parkview crew on site and working away. Always on site at 8am made a pleasant change from previous experiences with other builders. All in all I can wholeheartedly recommend this company, from the strength of their workforce, technical understanding and efficiency, they have made my project a relatively painless one.” Mr and Mrs Shipman Hoddesdon - 15-Apr-05
