about us

Back in 2010, Tom was working for his father’s building company after spending some years learning the trade, when Fil joined the team, bringing his experience as a general builder. They worked together for three years before deciding to take the plunge and create Go-Large Design and Build Ltd.

From humble beginnings starting on driveways and paving, the team of two quickly grew and currently our team is made up of 15 individuals, all bringing experience and skills from various trades, as well as an extensive network of trusted and loyal sub-contractors.

The team now focuses their attention on bigger projects such as double storey extensions, conversion, full property renovations and new build projects.

Fil, a stickler for detail and quality, can be found on site overseeing the construction element of your project and you will undoubtedly come across him sweeping and then re-sweeping site at the end of the day due to his hatred of mess and disorganisation. Originally from Portugal, Fil’s father had him working on site from the tender age of six, so when he is says ‘building is his life’ – he absolutely means it! After clocking off after a hard day’s work, there is nothing Fil enjoys more than spending time with his family, especially his little granddaughter who he dotes on.

Tom is our resident cheeky chap, who is always on hand to help our customers with decision making, offering advice and ideas both from a construction, and financial point of view. Tom is the one who will cost up and make sure all elements of the project stay on track, troubleshooting and problem solving as and when required. Outside of work, Tom can be found spending time with his wife and two young daughters, playing golf, talking about golf or thinking about golf.

Why Choose Go-Large?

Honesty and Integrity

Honesty is everything to us. We expect our suppliers, contactors and staff to be honest with us and in turn, we are always honest with our customers.

quality

Inferior quality building work is very quickly identified, and leads to a lack of trust, confidence and irreparable damage to a company’s reputation. We are fastidious about quality, it is a direct reflection of our experience, staff and dedication and nothing less than perfect is acceptable to us.

Personalised, tailored service

Each project and customer are different. Some prefer to hand over all decision making to Go-Large and have minimal involvement in the finer details, others feel happier knowing we are on hand to offer advice and guidance at every step.

We quickly understand our customers and adapt our approach to make sure all parties are comfortable and confident about their upcoming project.

Reputation

We could spend thousands of pounds advertising and marketing, but we truly believe that a delighted customer is the best form of advertising. It makes us incredibly proud that the majority of our work comes as a result of referrals, recommendations and repeat business.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMER’S SAY

Go Large are absolute professionals!

Go Large are absolute professionals! The work was carried out quickly, professionally and to a very high standard. One of my main concerns was that a builder would charge for quality materials and then use the lowest quality possible but this definitely wasn’t the case, all materials and appliances used were of high quality and the finish to the project was excellent. Have re-used several times since.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMER’S SAY

Absolutely fabulous service

Absolutely fabulous service from Tom, Fil and the team at Go Large. I had been left in a complete mess by a rogue builder and they came in and rebuilt brickwork, refitted windows, boarded the walls, plastered and decorated. All work was carried out quickly and professionally. They really helped me out of a jam and I am incredibly grateful. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMER’S SAY

a fantastic job

Tom and his team have done a fantastic job of making our dining room, utility room and kitchen into one big usable space. The trades were all punctual, and left the site clean and tidy at the end of each day. The final bill came in exactly as quoted so there were no nasty surprises at the end. I’m really impressed with the whole process and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again in the future.
