What our Clients say about us!

“Our major project had 3 distinct phases, which at the outset could have been either 3 projects or an integrated project. We were so happy with the first renovation project of the historic barn that we progressed with the extension to, and renovation of, our period farmhouse and the creation of a linked pool and leisure area. James at Bournesouth coordinated the tender processes, assembled and managed the team of builders and allied trades (from people he knew, had worked with and were used to working as a team) to deliver a first class project on time and on budget. His intimate knowledge of the processes and the interaction/potential conflicts of the specialist trades allowed him to anticipate issues before they arose and in close consultation with us to deliver the project to our complete satisfaction. We would highly recommend Bournesouth and James for delivering the project beyond our expectations in turning a great design into a beautiful home.”

“James Muir of Bournesouth has been a godsend throughout this project. From finding and instructing sub contractors to managing the day to day activities and ensuring the smooth running of the project nothing has been too much trouble. He was on site four to five days per week, handled Health & Safety and was always there to answer any queries for the builders. During a difficult time in terms of material supply and availability of labour he was always able to come up with a solution. For someone as fussy and OCD as me he had an eye for detail and often spotted issues before I saw them! I would have no hesitation in recommending James and Bournesouth for any project.”

“Following our recent property purchase, we approached Bournesouth Ltd, as we wanted some advice regarding potential improvements, particularly our kitchen. Yvette and James visited our property and discussed our requirements, which changed many times throughout the process! Yvette took our requirements and provided a workable design. Yvette offered practical ongoing advice throughout, including an accompanied visit to a local kitchen supplier to finalise our requirements. We would recommend Bournesouth for their professionalism, knowledge and ability to turn ideas into a workable solution for your home.”

“Yvette and James at Bournesouth Ltd have just finished refurbishing one of my properties to an exceptionally high standard. All designs were discussed fully and all drawings were clear and helpful. Their knowledge and expertise in design and construction was invaluable and helped me complete the project within budget and, considering the constraints of the current climate, within a clear time frame. I cannot recommend Yvette and James more highly.” 

Mr B


“Bournesouth provided outstanding project management support, successfully bridging all the relationships in the complex network of providers. Technical insight, unbiased advice, and driving the project from initial idea to clear architectural plans were all done brilliantly. They have been an absolute pleasure to work with.”
