  Hi,
  
  I used a Bulgarian/English building company with 4 offices in Bulgaria, they work for reasonable rates, to a good standard, and give photo updates every week on their website. Personally I am over the moon with their work, their website is www.mekotek.com hope this helps.

• Builders

  Hi
  
  Roughly what work did you get done by mekotek and how much did it cost? How do they deal with the financial side (how much deposit, how often do you have to pay, etc). My parents have purchased a property near Sleven (sp?) and will be getting it renovated soon, they intend to head over there in a caravan so that they can live on and supervise the site until the work is complete.

• Builders in Yambol & Elhovo

  www.newbuildbulgaria.com has been going for a few years in Elhovo, but i know they only go as far as Yambol one way and Topolovgrad the other.
  
  The consultant is English, and he gives you more than one option. I needed a new roof (so I was told), Paul came out and showed me where the problem was and quoted me a quarter of the price for a repair, guarenteed. The following year I had him back to put a bathroom in, that was good too.
  
  I know he does not do the work, he contracts it out to professional Bulgarian companies, he will tell you that, but to be honest, I just wanted the job done, it was cheaper in the end, and I understood the whole process. I would use him again.

• Mekotek

  Hi all,
  
  I have had to make initial legal proceedings regarding this customer, some of the comments made was for work we never even did, we did so much for this person when they moved to Bulgaria, without any thanks or even a small contribution for days and days of help and assistance.
  
  Some people are never happy and just want freebies all the time!!

• British builder in yambol

  Hi there, after reading all the posts, i just wanted to say i know how most of you feel, i have looked and looked but still cant find a bulgarian builder who is any good, so im thinking of building my house myself as i am a builder.
  However i need some work to help keep the wolf from my door, i dont expect UK wages but the end product will be much higher than a BG builder.
  I lived in Malomir close to yambol and now own a house in slamino witch is also in the yambol area, so im looking for work in this area but will travel if i have to, thank you for reading this far, hope to hear from a few of you soon.

• Bulgarian builders

  we have property in various regions which we are completly renovating ourselves as we are very experienced.both myself and my brother run two successful renovation businesses in kent and wiltshire working to the highest degree of finish and detail.
  I agree the quality of work is not the best from many builders but its actually not surprising when you consider their history.however i do find most bulgarians will work very hard if supervised and with this in mind we are looking to act as project managers.
  We will ensure work is carried out to a high standard(the use of spirit levels compulsory),ensure quality of materials is consistant with customers wishes and time scales adherd to where humanly possible.
  By using local tradesmen (electricians,plumbers,roofers etc) labour costing can be negotiated and controlled.
  Also once work has been completed we would ensure everything is left in a clean and tidy state.
  We would also offer a caretaker service whilst the property is left unattended.
  For further details and costings please contact me on

  I had my property renovated by RB last year and really appreiciate the service I have had from them. The renovation finished in July to a great standard and a great price. We agreed a price, and later signed a contract. They had to work around us, which was hard but worth it. They even hooked up temporary fittings so we could have water and washing facilities. Since then their service has been great. They have even called to see how things are.
