Testimonials

Our domestic and commercial customer testimonials, reflect the core values we adopt as an organisation.

Cognita Schools have worked with Project One for the last three years. They were selected on the grounds of their portfolio of work undertaken on capital projects ranging from classroom refurbishments to public building renovations.

Work on Cognita Schools has included;

  • Innovative new designs for our science rooms
  • Brand new school reception rooms
  • The supply of specialist joinery, including desk tops and bench seating
  • External ground works, including electrical mains, new railings and specialist fencing (electronic and pedestrian gates).
  • Day to day emergency maintenance of schools properties, through our building services package.

Project One have always been a pleasure to work with, and completed everything within our agreed time scales. Their craftsmanship is outstanding, despite the competitive rates they provide us.

Project One are are already undertaking three new projects to ensure our schools reflect the Cognita brand. We have no hesitation in recommending their services, and will continue to partner with them for future projects.

We commissioned Project One to build our extension following the brilliant service we received from the time of seeking a quote.

We found Project One to be one of the few building firms we had contacted that could provide genuine, clear costings from the outset with quality guarantees. Our quotation was swiftly provided and they clearly discussed and explained all of the details. We were kept informed of project timescales, completion dates and all key stages as work progressed.

Our extension was over our kitchen whilst the family were still living in the remainder of the house, however this was not a problem at all as Project One showed complete integrity and kept disruption and damage to the bare minimum.

The removal of our kitchen roof was carefully planned to prevent damage to any fittings and surrounds. Dust sheets were used at all times to protect the interior of our home. At the end of every day the team had a rigorous clean up and ensured a safe passage to the garden. The builders even fed our children’s pet rabbits when we were away.

As our extension progressed over a six-week period, we never witnessed any down time. Works were consistently being undertaken throughout every day.

Our new rooms exceeded our expectations, and at the end of the construction, unavoidable snags were fixed within 24 hours.

Overall, we were extremely pleased with the service we received from start to finish and would highly recommend Project One builders to friends, family and others.

The Parish Council are extremely grateful to you and Ian for refurbishing the village noticeboards recently. You have done an excellent job. They had been in a state of despair for some time and not very useable.

Thank you, your help has been very much appreciated.

Following a site visit made by Des Brown the director of Project 1 to provide a quotation, we commissioned them to carry out works converting a bathroom to a wet room. 

From this initial visit and throughout the project we were kept informed at every stage and the works were carried out on time and to a very high standard. 

The staff that attended during the project were all very polite and kept disturbance to a minimum.

Project 1 are a pleasure to work with and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have building works done.

Just a brief note to say thank you to the Project 1 Team in what you have achieved in the last six weeks – the school now has an excellent refurbished nursery – and is barely recognisable from the original area.

A lot of hard work and effort has been put in by your team and thank you for your cooperation throughout the project.
