Massimo completed our garden extension and laundry room in the agreed time and to a high standard. He has a lot of experience which shows in his excellent project management and attention to detail. Communication was great from the start, Massimo is clear and efficient, answers every question and works hard to find the best solutions. The entire team was friendly, professional and happy to work around our family’s needs. We absolutely love the new space and would recommend Ciampa & Sons to anyone.

Massimo did a great job on our extension. He is always polite, knows what he is doing, and kept us fully informed about every step of the build. We would have no hesitation in recommending him.

Massimo and his team are simply the best in town. We've used it for garage conversion and rear extension and we are super satisfied of the final product. Massimo is an easy going person, with plenty of experience he always gives great suggestions and advice. He is super clear with quotes and his work is impeccable. Don't look any further, you have found the perfect person to modify/extend your home.
Massimo and his team did an amazing job renovating our conservatory,which included putting a warm roof, installing new windows, and a sliding door. We are very happy with their work: clear communication, quick and focused execution, high quality workmanship, and fair pricing. We highly recommend this company!

Massimo boarded and skimmed the ceiling in our bathroom, then went onto tile both the floor and walls. He is very knowledgeable, reliable and polite and did an extremely good job of our bathroom.
