MSR Building and Landscaping in short

MSR Building and Landscaping is a Telford family firm covering home extensions, renovations, fibreglass roofing and groundworks including concreting, drainage and foundations from one team. The site claims more than fifteen years of experience and offers a free quote. No industry qualifications could be sourced from the registers, the website or the platforms checked.

From Hollybush Road the family firm serves Telford and Shropshire, putting extensions, renovations and groundworks through the one small team, reached by phone and email. Concreting, drainage, foundations and fibreglass roofing sit inside the same offer, and a free quote through the site opens the conversation.

The customer record is short and spotless: five stars on Google from ten ratings, the only review source on record. That is a promising start rather than a deep record. MSR Building and Landscaping answers by phone and email from its Hollybush Road base. Ten ratings leaves this the smallest review base in the round, so each new review moves the picture.

Our view: this outfit suits a modest extension or renovation where drains, base and building work stay with one small team. What counts against MSR Building and Landscaping is the absence of published insurance detail, rates and sourced qualifications. The limited company itself dates only to two thousand and twenty-three. Few round rivals offer drains, base and building from the one small crew, and few carry thinner paperwork.

Questions about MSR Building and Landscaping

Is MSR Building and Landscaping any good?

On the early evidence, yes for modest jobs: sixth in our Telford table, with a small in-house team covering extensions, groundworks and roofing, and a flawless Google record so far. Insurance, pricing and qualifications carry gaps, so read the full page and its sources. Use the free-quote route to open the conversation.

Is MSR Building and Landscaping a member of a trade scheme?

No trade-scheme membership could be sourced from the registers, the firm's website or the platforms checked. That is recorded as insufficient evidence rather than a failing. Ask the firm directly which trade bodies it belongs to, when each membership renews, and get the answer in writing. Ask for insurance and any trade standing together with the free quote.

What does MSR Building and Landscaping charge?

A free quote is offered through the site, but no rates, fees or VAT position are published. Send your drawings or a full description and ask for an itemised fixed price. Confirm what the price covers and which certificates come with the job. Include start dates and payment stages in that fixed price.

Where does MSR Building and Landscaping work?

The family firm works from Hollybush Road across Telford and Shropshire on extensions, renovations, groundworks and landscaping. Phone and email routes are published. Send your postcode with the job details to confirm you are inside its patch, with drawings or photos attached. Drawings or photos help the firm price the groundworks.

How is MSR Building and Landscaping ranked?

It ranks sixth of the ten extension builders in our September round, the pick for extensions and renovations from a family firm. We looked first at customer evidence, then qualifications and the rest. Read the full review, then ask for the itemised quote. The September round covers ten extension builders in total.

How do I get a quote from MSR Building and Landscaping?

Through the free-quote route on the site, or by phone and email from its Hollybush Road base, with drawings or a full description to hand. No rates or terms are published, so the written price carries the whole decision. Ask for an itemised fixed price and the certificates with the job.

What do customers say about MSR Building and Landscaping?

Customers rate it at full marks on the one held source: five stars on Google from ten ratings, seen in September 2026. The site claims more than fifteen years of experience behind the young limited company. That flawless start sits on the round's smallest base, so treat the quote and the paperwork as the real test.

How does MSR Building and Landscaping compare with the others in this round?

It sits sixth of the ten, between Heritage roofing and LMDS design work. Its in-house groundworks set it apart from the specialists around it, while the builders above carry deeper records. Randle leads the same general-building ground from the top of the table. That groundworks-plus-building mix is unusual this far down the table.
