Rubik Builders in short

Rubik Builders is a Telford construction firm built around retrofit: insulation, heating, solar panels, heat pumps, batteries, electrics and plumbing from one team working to recognised retrofit standards. Federation of Master Builders and TrustMark membership sit on the registers, with NICEIC, Gas Safe and MCS standing stated on its own site. Insurance is stated in figures running to millions, which few rivals match.

The customer record is steadier than the paperwork story: four point three stars on Google from eighteen ratings, the only review source on record. That is a respectable base for a young firm, though thinner than several rivals carry. Rubik Builders publishes a VAT number and answers through call and email routes from its Hortonwood base.

Our view: this outfit suits an energy-led project where heating, electrics and fabric improvements come as one brief. What counts against Rubik Builders is a site that reads as large-scale retrofit first and private extensions second, with no extension-specific content and no published rates. Domestic extension work is not evidently its current focus.
