Bhangals Construction Consultants Reviews 31

A fantastic service - Verry quick and always there to answer questions
Thank you

Bhangals made my construction support experience great. Their customer service sets them apart, with efficient responsiveness as always

Bhangals responded quickly with a reasonable quote, they delivered the estimate on time , and were on hand to answer any query I had.

I have been using Bhanglas Consultants' services for a couple of years and continue to get their support and advice on my projects. They have an excellent dedicated team of experts, who are professional and meet all deadlines without fault.

Extremely professional.
On point with all costs.
Would recommend to anyone who requires this service.
HOK

Good rates charged. I had two projects priced up, both successful as the estimating was just right. Clients confirmed the estimate was fair and in the middle out of 3. So a pleasure to work with Banghals Consultants. Thank you!

We have been using Bhangals for years and we are always satisfied with their services. The Bhangals team are very professional and always provide great customer service. We would definitely recommend Bhangals and their services.

We have used Bhangals for pricing client projects in the past and found them to be very responsive with prompt turnarounds. Would certainly use them again and continue to do so. Takes the pain out of pricing.

Probably the easiest guys on the industry to deal with and get things done. Very professional both in their correspondence and their end products. There is flexibility in what you can review and alter and their fi al documents can actually be used to also plan the works ahead with a specific work team.

Very professional service with a quick turn around tme at a fair price was my experience with the Bhangals team .
Initial estimate with completion time was accurate. Moreover I was assigned my own Surveyor who was on standby to discuss my project should I need to whom contacted to specify my needs and wants from Bhangsks services .
The completed project was laid out perfectly and professionally but easy for my clients to understand and see a accurate costings breakdowns.
Defintly will recommend this experienced team for all future project qoutes .

I paid Bhangals to provide me with a quantity surveying service for a concrete block, double garage. I wanted a good indication of bill of quantities and an indicative price to expect from builders. I nearly fell backwards when I received a 'mid-price-indicator' of £160,000.00 (inc. VAT).

You can buy a house AND a garage in my area for £160K!

The first two quotes I received in were less than half of this. It was a nonsense calculation that included a resin bonded driveway (the drawing and brief never stated I wanted any type of driveway... just a garage build. There were many, many items that were irrelevant like ground levelling costs (it is perfectly flat). To cap it all, the report stated that the quantities stated could not be used for buying purposes.

I explained the above and my current quotes and Bhangals revised it (guess what), down to the £60,000.00 area. However, they stated that they stick with their original price of £160,000.00. I challenged them to find a £160,000.00 concrete block, double garage built in Shropshire for that amount of money - no comment.
By the way, they advertise they have a 5 star Trustpilot customer rating which is course is not true.

All in all, a total waste of time.
"Reply after Bhangals comments" I gave full architects drawings and a multi-page contract specification indicating what was in scope (there was no grey areas). The fact of the matter is that you gave me a bill of quantities and then in your small print, stated it couldn't be used for buying purposes (not much use then). You gave me prices based on the detail I provided and your mid price for a concrete block double garage was £160,000.00 with your expected top price being over £180,000.00. There was nowhere in the initial document that says that the expectation should really be £60-£70,000.00.... that was their addition after I told them the prices of the quotes I had already received - I proved on a number of occasions that you added items that were without question, not needed or requested which made the process completely unrealistic and quite honestly, builders laughed when I placed your professional estimates in front of them.
PS - Fran is my middle name that many people know me by. I'm not sure why you felt you needed to mention that.
"Further to Bhangals latest reply" I am sorry to say that it is YOU who are not listening to the client and I can see other reviews from clients that have also felt the same way. I asked for a Bill of Estimates (which you gave but afterwards stated it cannot be used for buying purposes!!!!) and a realistic price for a concrete garage and you gave me £160,000.00. Most people reading this will appreciate that this sort of figure is useless to them. I asked for a garage quote "ONLY" and (as one of many examples) you added £36,000.00 to add and completely redo a long drive on a 0.8 acre plot! Not once before you delivered the document did you ask for additional information from me and on that basis, you had all the detail you needed from me. I was expecting a quote for what I requested... not silly things that were nothing to do with the brief. I can list these if you wish.

Dealt with Bhangals for a few years now and I've always been pleased with the documents/service provided to me. I'm own my own construction company so out on site a lot and if I need something doing, they get it to me straight away which is ideal when I have last minute meetings with clients. Thanks guys

Nothing received but grief from this company over a period of several years: they failed to stand by the conclusions of their survey which cost me some £4000 in 2018 in the face of multiple clearly specious arguments from my unreliable con-artist builder who allegedly owed me over £120,000 (according to their survey) after having cheated me and run off with all of my money after successfully masquerading as a member of the Federation of Master Builders by illegally using their contract; while I was still in a state of considerable shock and was again taken advantage of, Bhangals subsequently refused to conduct a survey for me concerning the dreadful behaviour of my second builder - I had ill-advisedly asked them to do this when the builder concerned was actually the one who had recommended Bhangals to me in the first place. I consider their response in this case to be reprehensible and unprofessional: they should have explained why they could not or would not perform that second survey (understandably enough) and they should in all decency and professionalism have pointed me in the direction of another company suitable for such a survey: it seems like they were protecting that second company, their friends apparently, who were engaged in cheating me of a further £70,000 odd and who also proved to be thoroughly incompetent and unreliable, taking again all of the money and more for the whole job but without properly completing any single part of it.
If Bhangals Construction Consultants are really unwilling or incapable of standing by their conclusions with respect to my first demonstrably con-artist builder and fully supporting my claim against her, then I believe they should in all conscience refund to me all of the moneys paid over to them by me along with suitable compensation - to allow for their most troublesome professional mishaps, to put it as kindly as possible.
During recent months, Bhangals refused to comment on a firm of (to them) local solicitors that had been recommended to me by one of their own former employees, which in itself seemed very odd, and worse still they refused to provide me with any suggestions of solicitors or legal practices that specialise in construction disputes - which surely they should know about. One might legitimately ask what business are Bhangals in for heaven's sake?
I could not at present recommend this company by any means. They have proved to be entirely unhelpful to me in every respect when they could and should have been helpful. That was of course why I brought them in, and why anybody might consider making use of their professional services.

I use Bhangals as my go to estimators for a lot of my work and have done for several years now. Excellent customer service from courteous and knowledgeable staff, who will always go the extra mile to assist when they can. This week I had an incredibly tight deadline on a difficult spec. Katie's help on this was invaluable and I received a fully priced document in good time for the deadline.

Having been overwhelmed with tenders these past few months. I was recommended over to Bhangals Construction Consultants. I can clearly see their knowledge of the industry from our initial call, They completed so far one tender for me in a speedy manner and also advise on pricing structure to help move forward, I will be using them many more times to come

We don't recommend to use this company you will lose your tender! We used them to price refurb project in Knightsbridge they came up with unreasonable prices for the work, around 30% higher than the market rates. They didn't check materials list properly and some of them quoted for a different ones (quoted for stone instead of tiles). In the result, we had to do all by our team from scratch. Also, one of our colleagues used them in the past he lost the bid and had a reference from the client that his bid was 35% higher then other companies came up.

Respons to Bhangals's reply:

1. There is no marble at all on this project. It is Marble Effect Porcelain Floor Tile. You need to check the materials list properly before pricing the job or raise RFI's if there is something not clear.
2. We meant about the labour price for Marble Effect tiles installation.
3. Your estimate was £462,226.14 The real price for this site is £260K. We didn't request any were to overprice the job and put an unreasonable amount for management and other labour costs. Our MD asked to use market-rate prices for this location. For example, you priced site manager for £61,600.00. It is 35 weeks work. In reality, for this size of the project preliminaries should be maximum 12 weeks. Building control £5.5K, in fact, should be £2,5K and a lot more. Professional QS needs to have an idea of how long the construction work will take place on the project. After your responses on our managing director queries, he decided do not waste any more time. He didn't see any reason asking you to update the quotation as your whole estimate was utterly wrong.
4. Hopefully, you will take into account this review and improve the quality of your work.

Great service, detailed enough to be one comprehensive quote and clear understanding of what is what and how much costs.
Impresses clients
