“We recently completed a major renovation project with GD Pringle Building, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the results.”
“When we bought our house five years ago, it was a bit of an ugly duckling, but we saw its potential. We knew it would be a significant undertaking, but the final result is truly amazing—our home is now a beautiful space.
Our vision for the house was to update it while preserving its character. We didn’t want it to lose its charm, and George from GD Pringle Building shared our vision perfectly. The project involved a lot of decision-making on the fly, especially with integrating new features that matched the original look.
The roof was a major component, and there was quite a bit of engineering involved upstairs. We removed a few walls, replaced some old structures, and the result is a home that’s not only functional but also warm and flowing beautifully.
It’s always a pleasure to show guests around and point out how some parts are new while others are original—no one can tell the difference. The whole process was smooth and transparent, and George kept us well-informed throughout. It turned out just as we had imagined, which is a fantastic bonus.
Overall, working with GD Pringle Building has been a wonderful experience, and we’re extremely happy with how everything turned out.”

“We highly recommend George Pringle and his team for anyone looking to undertake a renovation with confidence and ease.”
“We recently completed a significant renovation on our bungalow in Cambridge with GD Pringle Building, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. The project involved a major extension and a full modernisation of the interior, all while maintaining a classic look. What started as a personal renovation project quickly expanded, leading us to bring George and his team on board, and it turned out to be the best decision we could have made.
From the start, working with George and his team was a pleasure. We’ve tackled several property renovations before, but this experience was by far the smoothest. The professionalism and communication were outstanding, and the use of the app to track progress and manage schedules made the process incredibly efficient. Monthly invoicing also helped us manage our budget and cash flow effectively, which was crucial for us.
We appreciated the proactive approach to handling any changes or challenges that arose during the build. George and his team were always open to discussions, ensuring that solutions were reached promptly and minimizing stress throughout the project. This level of cooperation and transparency made it one of the best renovation experiences we’ve had.
The final result is a warm, beautiful home. We highly recommend George Pringle and his team for anyone looking to undertake a renovation with confidence and ease.”
