Best overall carpenters and joiner in Telford: retrofit and multi-trade projects under one roof

Rubik Builders in short

Rubik Builders is a Hadley-based construction firm covering retrofit insulation, electrical, gas and building work, so carpentry and joinery arrive as part of a managed multi-trade project rather than a lone visit. Federation of Master Builders and TrustMark registration is listed on the registers, with further trade memberships stated on its own site, and insurance is stated in full with a named insurer.

Customer reviews give the firm 4.3 out of 5 on Google across eighteen published ratings, a middling score that trails the specialists below it on customer evidence alone. Our judgement is that the firm's edge is breadth and paperwork rather than review volume.

What counts against Rubik Builders, in our view, is exactly that trade-off: no prices of any kind are published, and a small joinery-only job may sit uneasily with a contractor built for whole-house work. For a retrofit or an extension with joinery inside it, this is our pick of the table.

Our verdict

Our judgement: Rubik Builders suits you if your joinery sits inside a bigger retrofit or multi-trade project, with PAS 2035 standards and registered trade cover behind the firm [1] [4]. Insurance is stated in full with a named insurer [1]. What counts against it is the absence of any published prices.
