We had our garage converted into a home office in August/September 2018 by Acend Ltd. We were delighted with the finished result and Chas and Dillon could not be more helpful in trying to make sure they exceeded all of our expectations. The work was completed on time and to the agreed competitive budget with no hidden extras added on. We would definitely recommend Acend for any garage conversion work required in the Cheshire and Merseyside areas.
It’s always a risk to contract a tradesperson for a major job. They may say all the right things when coming to view the job but often it’s just talk. It’s uncomfortable to say the least to trust a stranger with your home and money. When looking for a builder to do my garage conversion I had the usual concerns, spoke to a few builders and also Chas from Acend. Chas said everything I wanted to hear, sounded knowledgeable about the job and gave a competitive quote so I gave him the work. It was a risk because I didn’t know him and I had no personal recommendations to him from anyone I know. 3 weeks later and the garage conversion has just been completed and it’s been the easiest job we’ve ever had done, I’m delighted with it. To put it briefly, Acend DID;- Turn up early, every day and get on with the job. No wasted time. - Do the work exactly as we spoke about and even suggested better ways of doing certain aspects. They truly exceeded my expectations in the finish. - Keep the worksite tidy, clean and were respectful of my home and family. I had every confidence leaving them on their own in the house each day. - Accommodate minor changes I requested easily, without fuss. - Take genuine pride in their work and were really keen to ensure I was happy with it. Acend definitely DID NOT;- Miss days due to having multiple jobs on the go at once (a major irritation for me when builders do this). - Increase the price from the agreed quote. There were no unexpected costs other than one change which was requested by the building control officer, completely out of the control of Ascend. - Cut corners. Their attention to detail was absolute and they made sure every minor detail was perfect. I literally didn’t have to mention a single change or snag to be fixed. I’m not related to anyone from Acend, I’m not a previous friend of theirs and this review is 100% genuine. I would happily recommend this company to anyone simply because they’ve done a great job for me. Ste and Kate Jones.Moreexpand_more
Had no knowledge of companies who did garage conversions and found Chas on the web and so glad we did! Gave us lots of suggestions to think about to ensure that the conversion looked like the rest of the house which is something we were really concerned about. Went to great lengths on the brick match and ensuring that the window too also matched the style of the house. Chas is a great character with daily updates on progress and made us feel at ease with the conversion. Would highly recommend Chas and his team and we've had many complements from family and neighbours on the final result.
Garage conversion. Chaz was always punctual and kept to his deadlines. He updated us of his progress on a daily basis and delivered exactly what he said he would, when he would. You could see and feel the pride he took in his work. No hesitation in recommending him to friends and family, thanks.
I recently had a garage conversion completed by acend. I could not be happier both with the completed job and the quality of workmanship produced by Chas and Steve. They turned up on time each morning and completed their targets every day before leaving for home. The job was completed on time and in budget and Chas even added a number of extras that he diddnt need to but it all makes for a better finish and more comfortable outcome. We had an intelligent radiator fitted and it seems to be both efficient and economical. All in all we couldn't be happier with the end result, and would recommend acend to anyone wanting building work doing. Thank you CHAS and Steve best wishes Alan and Vicky.
We needed an expert builder to turn our project of a dream kitchen into a reality and thankfully we found Chas and his team. Chas, Steve and tony worked on more than a garage conversion. This involved taking down the existing kitchen wall extending the kitchen through into the garage. We learned quite early on that Chas was a Perfectionist, needless to say the workmanship is of an excellent standard especially the smooth plastering finish. There were seldom problems only solutions! He applied his excellent problem solving skills to ensure the steel RSJ went in to an enclosed space and did the job. We would not hesitate in recommending Acend. Reputable and reliable. Well done.Sue and Carol Peters.
Very pleased with our garage conversion. Kept informed all the way through and completed on time. Easy to deal with, honest and hardworking. More importantly the room is better than we could have imagined and finished to a high specification. Excellent value for money and would highly recommend Chas and his team. We changed our mind halfway through and decided on having an electric eco radiator fitted as opposed to adding a radiator to GCH. So far we haven't had to use it much as the insulation has meant the room is warm anyway!
Chas and his team have recently completed a garage conversion for us and we cannot rate them highly enough. From the initial contact Chas came across as honest and reliable. He arrived when he said he would, he gave a comprehensive quote within a short time frame, started work on the day he promised and finished on time! This was a first for us as in the past we have been used to being let down by builders and tradesmen. The team of people he brought with him for various tasks were equally as reliable and nice to deal with. We are delighted with the work carried out and the end result, Chas takes a real pride in his work which obviously brings great results. I would happily recommend this company.
Having had numerous companies quoting for our garage conversion Chas and Denny from Acend were the most helpful and professional company and put us at ease straight away with all aspects of the work that we wanted carried out. From start to finish we could not be more happy with what they have delivered, which is a room with an ensuite, done to the highest standard and quality workmanship and we would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who is thinking of having a garage conversion or any building work done. We found them to be friendly, very reliable and trustworthy.
Acend Ltd have recently completed my garage conversion (Oct/Nov 14) including knocking through from small dining room into the garage. Chas and his team completed the work to a very high standard and on time. The transformation from an integral garage to a living space is amazing and was also completed as per quote. I was kept informed at all times regarding the timetable for the various work completed and required. Chas also registered all the paperwork with our local authority and all the work has now been inspected and signed off by our local authority. I would have absolutely no problem using Acend for any future work or recommending Acend Ltd to anybody else seeking a garage conversion.
We are more than happy to write a review and to recommend Chas and his team. Acend Ltd converted an integral garage for us November/December 2012 on time within budget and to a professional standard, dealing with all aspects of the build from supplies to obtaining the required legal certificates. Chas kept us informed throughout the whole process and helped to make our ideas even better. Thanks Chas. Mr&Mrs Pendleton, Wirral.
I have a Bungalow with a loft conversion and enlisted Acend to convert a spare room into a Bathroom. I am more than happy with the results! Chas not only suggested various idea's on how the room should look but provided an excellent bathroom suite. Chas engaged an excellent plumber and tiler. The Velux window gives us a great view and also much needed added light to the upstairs and the large corner shower is exactly what we wanted. I have Chas's number stored for any other building projects I have in the future. Recommended for all your building needs.

Acend Ltd carried out a garage conversion for me in October/November 2011. I was very impressed with the quality of work and I was kept informed throughout the process. The work was completed within the estimated timescale and Acend kept to the quoted price. Acend dealt with obtaining all the required certificates such as the electrical certificate and the approved Buildings Regulations Certificate. Overall, I was very pleased with the work and would recommend Acend Ltd to any future customers.
We are thrilled with our garage conversion by Acend Ltd. Chas and his team completed the work on time, to a high standard and at a very competitive price. I work full time but Chas kept me in the loop with regular calls and messages throughout the conversion. We highly recommend Acend. Thanks Chas!
Chas and the team did a great job on converting our garage into a playroom for the kids. Understood exactly what we wanted and provided it to great standards. It was on time, on budget and nothing was too much trouble. They were very approachable and no trouble to have in our home.
We are really pleased with our garage conversion. It has provided a lovely room at an affordable price and we can't wait to put it to full use. The team were really helpful, especially in finishing the job ready for an important weekend for us. Many thanks again!
