Rubik Builders in short

Rubik Builders is a Telford builder and retrofit contractor from Hortonwood, suited to a garage conversion inside a bigger renovation, with electrical and gas work done in-house. Federation of Master Builders registration is listed on the register, and NICEIC, Gas Safe and MCS membership is stated on the firm's own site [2] [1].

Customers are cooler on Rubik Builders than on the rest of the table: just over four stars on Google across eighteen reviews, the only customer source we hold [3]. Our review reads that as serviceable rather than strong backing. Cover is a plus, with stated policies across employers, public and indemnity lines on its site [1]. Eighteen reviews is a fair sample for a Telford builder, but the headline score trails every other name in the round.

The project list runs wider than garages: retrofit, electrical, gas, kitchens and bathrooms [1]. The site sets out retrofit first, with client detail behind each service [1]. The firm works from Hortonwood across Telford, Wolverhampton and Walsall, and answers by phone or email [1] [2]. Federation registration names garage conversions among its trades, so the conversion sits inside a broader building practice [2].

What counts against it, in our judgement, is that review score plus the missing prices: no rates, call-out fee or VAT position are published [3] [1]. Its company record goes back several years [2].
