Can Longbear Provide References?

Client peace of mind is important to us, and because of this we’re happy to provide as many references as you require and can offer details on request.

How Much Would a Particular Project Cost?

Prices can vary depending on the type of work that you require. We’re happy to make a site visit to accurately assess the work at hand. Additionally, the more information that you can provide us, the more accurate we can be in giving you a quotation.

Do Longbear Use Subcontractors?

The majority of work that we undertake is completed by our experienced in-house team. The only subcontractors that we use are Part P qualified electricians and Gas Safe registered plumbers. We always try to use the same contractors because we know their level of expertise and work ethics.

Is Longbear Insured?

Yes, we have insurance for up to £5,000,000 and can provide a copy of our Insurance Certificate upon request.

Are There Any Hidden Costs?

At Longbear, we pride ourselves on transparency. We will give you a written quotation listing all the work to be included at the beginning of the project. Anything that isn’t quoted will be deemed as an extra.

How do We Pay For Work?

We take a 25% deposit to ensure that your time slot is booked and then we issue a payment schedule that’s calculated in line with the work schedule.

Should I Buy The Material?

Longbear offers you the option of supplying your own material or letting us source materials on your behalf. It’s entirely up to you, and we can be on hand to help guide you through the different materials that are best suited to the job.

Who is Responsible For The Workmen While They Are Working on The Project?

For each and every project we undertake, we assign a dedicated project manager who will manage the safety, timekeeping and quality of every project.

How Long Does The Work Take to be Completed?

Depending on what type of work is required, an estimated time for completion will be issued before work commences on the project.

What if Something Goes Wrong After Work is completed?

Don't worry, we know that no job is truly complete just because the building work finishes. We have a great aftercare team and all clients are covered with a 2-year guarantee on all work carried out by Longbear.
