About from company website

George Ekins established a building company in the early 19th century, constructing many fine buildings in Hertfordshire and the Home Counties, including churches, schools, commercial buildings, and country houses. Ekins Builders Ltd. acquired the business on the retirement of Fred Norman and continues this tradition. Phil Davies and Edward Norman maintain their roles within the business, with Keith Barrett joining the team.

We pride ourselves on the quality of our work, and as a whole, the team has extensive practical knowledge of construction which allows any problems encountered to be quickly and efficiently resolved. Generally, our work is carried out from drawings and specifications already agreed between the client and architect. However, if you have yet to appoint an architect or designer, we have experience working with many in the region and can recommend some for consideration. Our projects range from smaller extensions and refurbishments up to large new builds and major alterations.

In recent times, much of our work has been to Listed and Ecclesiastical Buildings in the region, and the company has developed a name for specialising in this type of work. Our areas of work are predominantly within Hertfordshire and the north London regions. A permanently employed skilled site team, close management controls, and established working relationships with all ranges of subcontractors and suppliers mean that we are able to give the expertise and quality that is synonymous with the Ekins name. We pride ourselves on having a strong and dedicated team, both on and offsite.

All have extensive experience in the construction industry, which gives our clients confidence in our professionalism and quality of work.
