You can call +44 7926 450201, email [email protected] or send a message via maliyaconstructions.co.uk. We arrange a site visit, discuss your brief, and provide an itemised written quotation. During working hours (Monday to Saturday, 8:00 am to 7:00 pm), we aim to acknowledge enquiries the same day and typically deliver quotes promptly after our survey.

We deliver new builds, house extensions, loft conversions, garage and basement conversions, renovations and refurbishments, structural works, driveways, patios and landscaping, roofing and waterproofing, design-and-build packages, groundworks and site preparation, kitchen and bathroom installations, and ongoing property maintenance and repairs for both residential and commercial clients.

Yes. If you prefer a single point of contact, we handle measured surveys, concept design, planning drawings, building regulations details, structural coordination, and the construction itself. We also act as your liaison with planning officers and building control so you do not need to arrange any part of the process.

We advise whether your project falls under permitted development or needs planning consent. Where consent is required, we prepare and submit the application, respond to queries, and manage resubmissions if necessary. For extensions and loft conversions in Wednesbury, we ensure proposals align with local guidance and practical buildability from day one.

We produce or coordinate the technical details required for building regulations approval and arrange building control inspections at each stage. We keep you informed of inspection outcomes and ensure any comments are closed out before completion, so you receive the appropriate sign-off.

We begin with a consultation and site survey, then provide an itemised quotation and programme. Once agreed, we assign a dedicated site lead, sequence the works, protect the property, and provide regular progress updates with photos. At completion, we complete snagging with you, hand over documentation, and support you during our aftercare period.

Timeframes vary by scope and access, but as a guide a straightforward single-storey extension may take 8–12 weeks from site start, a loft conversion 6–10 weeks, and a full house refurbishment 8–16 weeks. New builds depend on design and ground conditions. We confirm durations in your programme so expectations are clear.

We provide transparent, itemised quotes that outline inclusions and any provisional sums. If you request changes, we issue written variations with costs and programme impact before proceeding. This approach keeps budgets predictable and prevents surprises.

Our quotes typically include labour, materials, plant, waste removal, protection, site set-up, coordination with building control, and basic making good. Design-and-build packages also include drawings and submissions as agreed. Any exclusions are clearly listed so there is no ambiguity.

Yes, we usually take a modest deposit to secure your start date and order long-lead materials. The balance is staged against agreed milestones, for example completion of groundworks, structure, first fix and second fix. Each stage is invoiced only after the milestone is reached.

All our work comes with a free 3-month guarantee. If any issue arises within 90 days—such as a plumbing fault, electrical problem, or a water leak—we put it right free of charge. We also hold Public Liability Insurance to protect you and our team throughout the project.

We combine experienced trades with attentive site management and a culture of doing things properly the first time. We check levels, moisture, fixings and finishes at each stage, use appropriate fixings and membranes for roofing and waterproofing, and document critical details with photos for your records.

Clients regularly praise our professionalism, clear communication, tidy sites and attention to detail. Many mention reliable timeframes, courteous behaviour, and transparent costs. We aim to make the process seamless and stress-free, and we keep you updated so you always know what is happening next.

We plan noisy or dusty tasks carefully, isolate work zones, lay protection to floors and stairs, and use dust extraction and sheeting. We maintain safe access routes, communicate daily about water or power interruptions, and leave the site tidy at the end of each day.

Yes. We suggest practical layout tweaks, structural options, and material substitutions that improve durability, performance and value. Whether you need a more efficient kitchen layout, better storage in a loft conversion, or energy-saving upgrades, we propose solutions that meet your budget.

We manage all waste disposal, including skips and necessary permits, and segregate waste where practical. We keep the site organised, remove debris regularly, and sweep down at the end of each day so your home remains as clean and safe as possible.

Absolutely. We are happy to build from your existing drawings, coordinate with your architect and structural engineer, and raise buildability queries early to avoid delays on site.

We carry out steel installations, wall removals, underpinning, and load-bearing alterations with temporary works as required. We arrange steel fabrication to specification, install lintels and beams, and ensure all works are inspected and signed off by building control.

We install and repair pitched and flat roofs, upgrade insulation, replace fascias and soffits, fit rooflights, and deliver robust waterproofing to terraces, basements and extensions. We specify appropriate membranes and detailing to suit your roof type and exposure.

Yes. We construct block-paved and resin-bound driveways, porcelain and stone patios, retaining walls, steps, drainage and turfing. We pay attention to levels and falls to prevent standing water and ensure long-term durability.

We provide a turnkey service including strip-out, first and second fix plumbing and electrics, plastering, tiling, joinery, flooring and final fit. We coordinate appliance and sanitaryware deliveries and test every service before handover.

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, and commercial clients across Wednesbury and the West Midlands. From shop fit-outs and office refurbishments to structural alterations and maintenance, we tailor our programme to minimise downtime.

We agree a communication plan at the start, including a primary point of contact, weekly updates, and quick responses to questions. We share progress photos and keep you informed of key milestones, inspections and decisions.

If we uncover hidden issues such as rotten joists or poor drainage, we inform you immediately, document the condition, and propose the safest, most cost-effective remedy. We agree any change in cost or programme with you before proceeding.

We handle urgent issues such as leaks or storm damage during our working hours (Monday to Saturday, 8:00 am to 7:00 pm). If you have an emergency, call +44 7926 450201 and we will advise the quickest next steps.

We survey access at the quotation stage, plan delivery sizes and timings, and arrange permits where needed. We select suitable plant and lifting methods to work safely within tight spaces, typical of many Wednesbury streets.

Start dates depend on scope, design approvals and material lead times. We plan realistically, secure materials early, and give you a confirmed programme so you can prepare with confidence.

Yes. We can share testimonials and, where clients consent, arrange viewings of completed projects in Wednesbury and nearby areas so you can see our workmanship first-hand.
