“We have used Distinctive Living on several occasions and cannot recommend them highly enough. All the different projects they have completed for us have been done to the highest standards and the quality of their work is outstanding. Their project management is extremely professional and nothing is ever a problem. All the team are friendly and courteous, arriving on time and leaving a clean and tidy work area at the end of the day. We have every confidence in recommending Distinctive Living for your building project.”

“Having done an amazing job building a 2nd-floor extension for my daughter’s bedroom the previous year, when it came to co-designing, building and fitting out a bespoke teaching kitchen for Primary aged children I did not hesitate in contacting Distinctive Living. Despite never having done a commercial space before there were no hiccups and the result Amanda and her team delivered was perfect, surpassing expectation. Both times (for my daughter’s room and the teaching kitchen) DL came in on time and on budget, which I understand is somewhat their trademark!”

A. W14,

“Everyone warned me – you will fall out with your builders, they will run late, over budget and never finish snagging. But with Distinctive Living the experience, an ambitious extension, was exciting, fun and 100% positive.  We were actually sad to see the team finish on time (but happily on budget).”

“Amanda and the Distinctive Living team have built our ‘Dream Home’.  Great design & creativity, superb Project Management and a reliable and committed team who possess real attention to detail and consideration for the client and the neighbours.  Would thoroughly recommend the Distinctive Living team.”

“I was incredibly lucky to be recommended to Distinctive Living, when I embarked on the renovation of my parent’s 4 bedroom house in Finchley. They completely transformed the house within budget and on schedule as a consequence of their outstanding, all round professionalism. They are a brilliant team, led by the energetic project manager, Amanda Grant. Her attention to detail and quality is fantastic. After this great experience I intend to embark on another project with them and don’t want too many people to know how amazing they are! ”

J.P. N12,

“This was the first time we have done a renovation where the daily angst and stress were shouldered for us. Amanda and her team worked on schedule, helped us choose the fitted kitchen and bathroom with ideas that we wouldn’t have thought of. Problems that arose during the build weren’t problems, as solutions were presented to us rather than problems. Plus they came in on budget. Very happy and will use them again.”

L.J. TW11,

“Distinctive Living did an amazing job transforming our rather tired kitchen and dining room into a wonderful new modern living space. Amanda and team advised us throughout the build, and we relied heavily on Amanda’s design expertise and eye for visual perfection. Amanda’s team delivered the build on time and within budget and can only be described as efficient and courteous.

We highly recommend Distinctive Living. ”

“As a landlord living overseas, it is very important to me to have someone able to deal with any issues with my tenants or property swiftly and professionally. I turned to Distinctive Living having been disappointed with the service I received from a well known real estate/lettings agent and it is a move with which I have been delighted. ”

“I used Distinctive Livings services to update our London flat and found them to be very professional and helpful. Their design advice is of the highest quality and they then follow through to create a superb finished article.”

“A boss lady who listens to what you want, gives you informed and enterprising options and delivers high quality on time. With a workforce who are pleasant, polite and very professional–what more could you want?”

P.H-W. W10,

“Distinctive Living were engaged to refurbish my central London, mansion building, apartment by knocking out the kitchen wall and turning the area into a brand new open living space; they did a superb job. Every aspect of the project was tightly controlled, well communicated and carefully thought through. They have transformed the flat and did so within the time frame and within the budget. It’s highly unlikely that one would find another such company in London.”

“Distinctive Living live up to their name. Amanda Grant, Managing Director, is a highly creative and talented Designer and Project Manager. She employs a professional team who pride themselves in ensuring excellent craftwork. Importantly projects are completed on time and on budget.”

J.R. W4,

“Amanda with her team created a completely bespoke kitchen for us with the minimum of inconvenience. All deadlines were met, the quality of the units was first class and the standard of workmanship exceptionally high. Amanda in addition, was encouraging and highly efficient throughout. She managed to make the whole process creative and enjoyable, always quick to take responsibility for difficult decisions yet receptive and flexible.”

C.H. W14,

“Amanda Grant, the Managing Director of Distinctive Living has the ability to see the potential of a space as soon as she walks into a room – this “eye” and then her team who facilitate her designs means that she transforms spaces to their maximum. Amanda liaised between myself and her team so my hassle was minimal but I got the perfect result.”

G.B. KT2,

“Just wanted to say what a great job Distinctive Living has done for us. The back of the house and garden was remodelled without any fuss or problems. Amanda Grant carefully and with skill directed all the stages of the build so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. She kept in contact and obviously knew what she was doing. And all at a very reasonable price. We need more of her kind in the building world.”

G.G.,

“They did a spectacular overhaul of my bathroom. The wallpapering was exceptional – in fact the workmanship throughout was highly impressive. They’re also considerate, careful about mess and great at talking through ideas. Annoyingly my bathroom looks so good now that I’m going to have to consider upgrading the rest of the flat.”

M.B. SW3,

“Do you want professionalism, keen pricing and attention to detail with your renovations all delivered with charm and sensitivity? Look no further: Amanda and her team possess it all in spades. We are delighted with the new kitchen she installed and have no hesitation in recommending her.”

J.B. W14,

“Just wanted to let you know the room looks amazing! Your people do such great work. We were really thrilled. Thanks so much. We really appreciate it.”

C.S. NW3,

“It was a pleasure working with Amanda and her team. Our girls are so happy in their new playroom and we couldn’t be happier with the kitchen pantries, the sky lights, the reception, the built-in closets, the refurbished bathrooms, the new walk-in closet, in fact everything about the house. The quality of the work was top notch and it was finished on time and budget. We really could not have done it without her, Amanda is a true professional, always available to meet our busy schedule and did a great job keeping the neighbors happy – they had nothing but good things to say about how she handled the project. We couldn’t recommend her more.”

B.R. W14,

“Amanda brings a rare combination of conscientious working with an excellent design brain and an unparalleled attention to detail. That deep sigh of building work is replaced by an effective, quick, thoughtful and reliable building service. Of course we hesitate to write anything too glowing in case we pass on our rare gem to anyone less grateful for an entirely perfect service! They are indeed a very distinctive team, so easy to talk to and brainstorm through every detail that good building work needs.”

“Finlay Brewer, the most successful independent and long established estate agency in Brook Green, have used Distinctive Living for a number of rental refurbishments; both Paul Cosgrove and I have used the company to carry out works at our own homes. We  found the proprietor Amanda to be proactive, hardworking, conscientious and imaginative, setting time scales and keeping to them. Amanda understands and delivers the refurbishment required to an exacting standard. We have no hesitation in recommending her of and her team to any of our clients  – we will certainly use Distinctive Living whenever we need work done.”
