The Babbage's hung out their shingle in 1984, bringing together the three brothers, their Mother, Father and a small group of quality tradesman as a general building contracting company, named after their parents Brian 'B' and 'M' Mary, not very imaginative but tapping into a well established name well known within the Cotswolds more importantly than their home town of Cheltenham.
Please discuss this with your Contracts Manager. We would prefer to deal with any workmanship issues as soon as they arise as to rectify afterwards could cause unnecessary disruption. If you have a serious problem or complaint we would ask you to contact your Contracts Manager who will give you their personal attention.

We were very pleased with the building and repair service from B & M Babbage. They worked efficiently, tidily and without fuss. We were kept informed at all times and everyone was very considerate towards my elderly mother which meant she could continue to live in the house while work was in progress. I would have no hesitation in recommending this company

Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness
Professional and timely. Frequent visits from Ryan to make sure everything was done well. Left everything neat and tidy at the end of every day. The plasterer and Mark the decorator did an excellent job.

Very poor quality firm. They subcontract to the lowest quality guys who drove an hour and a half each morning from the Black Country and were paid a pittance. Their local guys also complained about rates of pay. Cement a different colour where they regrouted so it looks awful. Plasterers were shockingly bad and argued with the decorators. Their supervisor had the chat to convince me all would be okay. It wasn’t. They are a terrible firm and I would advise you to avoid them like the plague.

If this hadn't been an insurance claim I would have sacked them months before they finished.
They only responded to the loss adjuster not the actual customer - the person who had lost their home and husband in a fire in their property. The restoration took 8 months from the date of the fire before my mother could move back home, when it could and should have taken less than 1/2 that.
They are more interested in ripping off the insurance company and bidding for more work from them than actually carrying out the work they have already got.
They told me a room needed lining (5 rolls of paper) before

It is rare to find a building company that you cannot fault, but during the four months that B & M Babbage have been involved in refurbishing my garage following a fire I have had exemplary service. The work was completed on time and to a very high standard. Everyone involved, both on site and in the office, was friendly and respectful towards both me and my property. I was kept fully up to date with who would be on site each day and I was included in all the decision making. The site was at all times safe and tidy. I would certainly use B & M Babbage for any work I needed doing in the future and
