Renovations More and more people are deciding to renovate and upgrade their home, with many taking advantage of the retrofit home improvement grant scheme that achieves additional space, with the benefits of energy efficient living by creating a thermal envelope (walls, floors, roof and windows) and improved heating systems. This achieves a better BER rating, increased comfort and luxury, creating their ideal dream home. We are highly experienced and skilled in taking an existing home structure, extending and using the best solutions to improve its performance so it actually feels like a new home. The areas we are most frequently asked to enhance and deliver real change and value to are kitchens, bathrooms, sun rooms, conservatories and to a growing audience, creating a workspace allowing remote working.

We will make the necessary effort to adhere to the finest finish – our workmanship and attention to detail is second to none. We believe in honesty and transparency. We share work schedules, milestones and delivery dates with our clients in a transparent way so you and your architect are kept aware throughout the project.

Where we hold a date, the check shows it. ## Before you hire a builder _What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_ - Never pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done. - Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced. - Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job. - In Ireland, gas work must by law be done by a Registered Gas Installer (RGI) and electrical work by a contractor registered with Safe Electric. Verify the registration on the public register before any gas or electrical job, as using an unregistered installer is illegal and dangerous. - Agree an itemised written quote with staged payments tied to completed work rather than a large cash deposit up front, and confirm the tradesperson's public-liability insurance before they start. ## Contact - Phone: 086 322 7030 - Website: http://www.jmccarthy.ie --- Source: MyTrustedTraders, https://ie.mytrustedtraders.com/traders/mccarthy-construction-2 Real public evidence only: every figure traces to a named source, with evidence held from 2 named public sources.
