Donna & Nick

Lindley, Huddersfield 2024

After moving into our dorma bungalow in August this year, it was always our intention to extend the second bedroom by extending into a walk in cupboard under the eaves. We appointed BC to do the works due to several recommendations and after reviewing recent works undertaken on their website.

 

When the work began, they suggested that we might have the same additional space behind the main bedroom wall, which would make an ideal en-suite. Why not we thought as this would definitely add value to our property. The hole was cut in the bedroom wall and yes they were right. We had an amazing space which had been hidden away for many years.


The finished result has by far exceeded our expectations . It is a beautiful warm modern en suite made out of a space we didn’t even realise existed. All the staff who worked on the job were professional, hardworking and friendly as long as regular cups of tea were provided 😁I can not recommend BC enough and if you want evidence all you have to do is look at the photos . Thankyou

Kath & Ian
New Mill, Holmfirth 2024

We first engaged with Byram Construction (BC) to build our Passiv-Haus ‘The Laurels’ back in autumn 2022. We had been let down by our selected specialist construction company but had previous excellent experience of B.C. completing our existing house extension. We knew that B.C were a professional firm of craftsmen with a laser focus on Customer Value & Satisfaction. They were energised and keenly interested in building us a special benchmark passiv-haus, and adding to their own skills where necessary to achieve an unrivalled result.

They spent considerable time with us & the architect to understand the requirements of the build, and were adding to the design, performance and cost efficiency of the project from the outset. Their can-do attitude was continuous and their relationships, focus on customer satisfaction & value was unrivalled, delivering a truly stunning & special project. This was clearly evident in a number of ways:

· Knowledgeable craftsman based team – The entire BC team are empowered professionals. The on-site build team & off-site logistics team were all highly briefed on the project , and provided continuous (daily) updates to us as clients, often informing us of certification compliance factors or involving us in detailed build decision making. Every member of the team was highly engaged & empowered, and clearly expected to use their skills to improve the project where they saw possible. The stonework and joinery are excellent examples of this.

· Local sourcing – BC worked hard to use local sources almost entirely, which led to greater flexibility & ownership, lower overall emissions and ultimately accelerated the programme.

It is no surprise to us that with their approaches & team, the house passed it’s airtightness test by nearly double the Passiv-Haus requirements. This is testament to a Right-Frist-Time building approach and the excellence of BC.

We now have a truly exceptional, modern & stylish passive haus, built for all our future needs.

New Build Marsden Huddersfield

Lee S
Marsden 2024

Wayne is committed to high standards in everything he does, not only are we delighted with the finished product, but almost every day passers by will stop to talk and compliment us on a beautiful job.

 

At no stage in the build process were there any unexpected costs, we requested regular meetings to discuss the next steps and the budget, always aware of what it would cost to build the house and all the extras that come along. We were building during COVID making it difficult to get materials and in many cases the price of materials were rising very quickly. However Wayne was very honourable and where he could, stuck to  his original costings for which we are very grateful. Deborah’s monthly updates on what had been spent  were really easy to follow so we could budget accordingly.

 

Wayne was really great at developing our ideas, guiding us when we needed it, and being realistic about when to spend more money and when not to bother. The end result is our truly unique house, full of creative ideas and practical solutions that make it so easy to live in.

We’re now approaching two years here and we still feel very lucky.

 

Everything was crafted to a high standard by Wayne and his team and nothing was too much trouble throughout the process.

Community Refurbishment Marsden Mechanics

Chair, Marsden Community Trust
Marsden 2022

Marsden Community Trust was fortunate to secure a generous grant from the Community Lottery Fund, geared to investments that would secure the future of Marsden Mechanics as the unique community asset it has been for over 150 years.  

 

A large slice of that grant was devoted to works on the fabric of the listed building, which Byram Construction was contracted to carry out.  

 

The Trust has been delighted with the value for money and the friendly helpfulness of Byram’s team in accommodating the intense demands of keeping the building open for use throughout and ensuring the safety of users.

Matthew Butters
Marsden 2019

Having used Byram Construction Ltd in the past I had no hesitation in setting this local, honest, hard working company on again for an internal renovation of my biggest leap in business so far, a brand new, high street located Podiatry Clinic. Wayne is the ideal point of contact anyone could wish for. Always calm in any situation, he always puts your mind at rest regardless of how big you think the issue is and unlike other builders, he never ignores you and will always resolve your query at his earliest convenience. He has a superb team of tradesmen who will deliver to a high standard in the timeframe set from the outset.

 

I couldn’t recommend Wayne and his men highly enough and would not hesitate to use them in the future.

I recently contracted Byram Construction Ltd to build a large extension and 4 luxury hotel rooms for my pub The pickled pheasant.

I would have no hesitation in recommending them , the quality of the work was first class and was delivered on time and on budget. The building team were hard working and talented and the site manager and company directors were always available to discuss any issues. 

If you are thinking of contracting them feel free to come to the pub and have a look at the quality of the work, you will not be disappointed.
