I’m Nico, a builder, carpenter and decorator, and I’ve been working mainly on residential properties in the Islington area for the past 15 years. With my team of trusted workmates, we can take on any job, delivering a perfect result at a reasonable price.

Nowadays, as a consequence of our ever-growing reputation, we typically tend to be commissioned for larger projects. Extensions have become an important speciality for us – and we do all types, from wood structure to brick and beam, one or two storeys. However, we’re still happy to tackle much smaller tasks, especially for our many returning customers.

Please browse through this website to learn a little more about the range of work we carry out – including all kinds of building projects, together with interior and exterior decorating to the highest standard – and to read a few comments from our satisfied customers. You can also view a selection of photos of our work.

What our clients say

“He produces work of a high standard and makes sensible, practical recommendations when appropriate, including cost conscious solutions. He has become part of the firmament of Highbury.”

Barry London, N5

“The finished product is far better than we could have imagined, and his quote was incredibly competitive. Little wonder he’s become Islington’s builder of choice.”
