| "It is three years since Hamilton Leon first took us on as clients. At that time we had just bought a house which required major reform to all areas including the garden and pool. We also had fairly stringent budget and time scale restrictions. Mike and Blas worked very hard to help us explore all our options, and they also gave us a lot of invaluable advice and many ideas. Once all the decisions were made we returned to the UK while their team proceeded to conjure absolute miracles on all fronts. Mike sent us progress photos almost daily which was enormously helpful and exciting. The project was duly delivered on time, on budget and the results seriously exceeded our expectations. We were thrilled and delighted with every aspect of the work that had been done – everywhere there was a great attention to detail and finish, and our house was transformed from run-down to handsome. Following on from this first project we have since asked Hamilton Leon to undertake a number of other, smaller, reform and repair projects at the same property. Each project has been delivered on time, on budget and with quality workmanship. This year we asked them to help us complete our house vision with a second major project – raise the roof, add new windows, add two bathrooms, and create new storage spaces. Once again there was a very short time frame for this to be accomplished and once again, Mike, Blas and their team delivered the project on time, on budget and with uncompromising quality. From our initial scrappy sketches via Blas’s notebook and tape measure to the new bedrooms and bathrooms that would be worthy of an interiors magazine – our house has been once again been transformed by Hamilton Leon! It is always such a pleasure to have Mike and Blas’s professional input and advice and they have been unstinting and generous with their time despite their considerable workload. We are so glad we found this amazing team of professionals – we recommend them whole-heartedly. Our “house in Spain” dream has been made a wonderful reality with their help and we appreciate their skills and quality workmanship every day". (September 2018) |

| "Hi Mike, We’re not sure when you’re back from holiday so we can tell you all personally, but just a short note in the interim to say that having arrived the other day we were both absolutely thrilled with how the project has turned out - far far better than we could ever imagine - well done to you and all the team". (August 2018) | Barbara & Derek Morris | |
| "We moved into our recently purchased beautiful new home in Spain during early May 2018 and set about organising new furniture and to make the house how we wanted it to be. Having had the house surveyed it was noted that the garage roof needed sealing against water ingress and a small archway needed replacing between the house and the garage area. We also wanted to replace the kitchen and utility rooms and update the bar area.We contacted Hamilton Leon and throughout the process they surveyed the proposed work, provided us with comprehensive advice and quotations and we decided to award the work to Hamilton Leon. Work commenced on time as promised and was completed on time to our complete satisfaction. Their staff were very competent, very polite and courteous and above all extremely hard working, arriving for work each day at 8 am and very often working through until between 6 and 8 pm in the evening, all with the minimum disruption to our daily life.The result of their work speaks for itself, we now have a waterproof garage roof, a new archway between the house and the garage, new granite worktops on the table and bar in the bar area and a completely new kitchen as well as a number of minor repairs required elsewhere in the house".(August 2018) | Julie & Grahame McCracken | |
| "I cannot recommend Hamilton Leon more highly. Right from the first communication and throughout the building process Mike, Blas and the team have been highly efficient and also very pleasant. I asked for the renovations on my house to be completed in a ‘super’ quick time. The team told me that the time schedule was tight, but to my surprise Hamilton Leon came through trumps and even knocked a couple of days off the completion time. I will certainly use Hamilton Leon again for any work I require and recommend them to others". (July 2018) | Sally Doyle | |
| "Jason and I had a really lovely time staying in our new house, and to be honest neither of us wanted to come home. You have done such a fantastic job of the reform. I wouldn't hesitate to recommended you to anybody so if you should have a potential customer that needs reassurance please do give them my number or email". (May 2018) | Louise Parker | |
| "We were introduced to Hamilton Leon during our search for a property in the region they provided advice on a couple of villa’s we were considering. Once we had finalised the purchase of our home in Murcia we commissioned Hamilton Leon to undertake improvement and enhancement work to the Villa. This included relocation and renewing the gas boiler, construction of a utility room, complete refurbishment of the kitchen, construction of a swimming pool, conversion of two garden store rooms into an outside kitchen and bathroom and major landscaping of part of the garden including selecting trees, palms and shrubs etc.During these three phases of work Hamilton Leon were very professional, provided design options, ensured the appropriate legal licences and contracts were in place prior to work commencing and arranged for the necessary legal inspections to be undertaken.Hamilton Leon are a very helpful and considerate professional company in particular their “core” team are polite and very skilled men. Yes we would recommend Hamilton Leon". (March 2018) | Andrew Moore | |
| "What I also wanted to say, I know from myself that I expect a lot from our house. I will let you know that we are very happy to date, everyone is doing their best, Felia is also very patient with us. Pedro is also someone who does his job as it is for himself. All employees are super". (February 2018) | Marc Van den Berghe | |
| "We feel that we really landed on our feet when Mike and Blas were recommended to us by the Spanish estate agent through whom we bought our cortijo. So far they have built a very large garage / storage building for us, installed a large pumped water deposit, and fitted a number of new windows and doors. Not only have they taken care of everything from initial plans and council approval through to finished product, but they have done so with an all encompassing service. Mike and Blas are always on time for meetings, always have good ideas and always know how to do things properly. Their workers are on site from dawn till dusk, are always polite and courteous, and give the impression that they really care about what they were doing. In addition Mike and Blas have been very quick to step in to offer expertise and manpower to solve other issues that have arisen, and have quickly established themselves as our one-stop-shop for our property needs. The next step is a new kitchen and remodelling our outdoor space. We have no doubt that they will take to it enthusiastically and skilfully". (December 2017) | Paul Young | |
| "If you do not live permanently in Spain, you need a reliable construction company that ensures the process of your project in a quality manner. The duo Hamilton Leon understood this well and knows exactly how to give a foreigner a carefree project. Striking qualities are communication, updating the progress of the works with pictures, offering different possibilities and choosing the best execution methods. With Hamilton Leon you have no problems and you are sure of a brilliant finish. This was how we realized our swimming pool in 2017". (November 2017) | Marc Aerts | |
| "Again Mike and Blas to the rescue! Having waited for approximately three and a half months for our insurance company, once everything was finally agreed the work was completed in just four hours. Another fantastic job by Hamilton Leon". (October 2017) | Kim & Elaine Sonnex | |
| "To buy an apartment just because it has sea views from every room is one thing. To renovate an otherwise neglected and very old-fashioned place with an impossible lay-out is quite another. Mike and Blas’ enthusiasm in taking on, what was a considerable challenge, was a delight. The planning and suggestions were imaginative. Attention to detail second to none, whilst always mindful of cost effectiveness. Meeting Felia was enormously helpful as her advice was invaluable. Timescales were kept to, hurdles overcome and the end product is simply stunning. Clearly, no project is too big or too small for these guys! My thanks to all of you. And thank you Felia for the odd Spanish lesson - I am on the case". (July 2017) | Ingrid Masmeyer | |
| "We have used Mike Hamilton and his team for two fairly major jobs on our villa in Mojacar. We are absolutely delighted with everything they have done and cannot recommend them highly enough". (July 2017) | Paul Feldman | |
| "We can all dream about building our perfect home to our exact specification so that it meets all of our needs and desires. However, it can be a little daunting and we sometimes opt for the “safer” option of a re-sale property. Well, with Hamilton Leon you won’t find safer hands to take you through the process from start to finish and they will turn dreams into reality. When we first met Mike Hamilton and Blas Leon we were struck by their professionalism,experience and knowledge. We felt confident that they were listening to our thoughts and ideas, would offer us the best advice and challenge us if needed and that they would be able to deliver exactly what we were looking for. Well they have and in just under 6 months they have built our new house, exactly how we wanted it, and we are now living in our dream home...We would have no hesitation at all in recommending Hamilton Leon to anyone. We know from our own experience that they will deliver to the highest standard, they will ensure everything meets the clients need and that they will work with you keeping you informed on even the smallest of details. Many, many thanks, to Mike, Blas, Felia, Joyce, Pedro and the entire building team for creating our dream home with us". (July 17) | Laurence & Tracey Toft | |
| "Well Mike, Blas and the team have come to our rescue again. We were informed on the 18th May we had a water leak. Immediately, turned off water at the mains, baton down the hatches and start to fill buckets, saucepans etc. We then got onto the house insurance company!!! Nearly, two and a half weeks later they came, found a leak and tried to repair it. They then informed us we had another leak and left us with a large hole in the patio. ENOUGH was ENOUGH! Straight onto Mike the day before yesterday. Mike and Blas came straight round to assess the damage and informed us that the pipe that had been fitted by the plumbers from the insurance company was not the correct type! So, we decided that we wanted a complete new clean water pipe system. After their recce Mike informed us that the work would be done the following day (yesterday, Thu 8 Jun). The team turned up, as usual on time and started work. Grinding out concrete for the new piping. Laying the new pipe work and repairing the hole left from the plumbers before. Young Luis was on site all day and had Antonio here for part of the day. They worked tirelessly, with Luis not stopping, only for lunch. They kept Elaine informed of what was going on throughout the day. Mike and Blas came round in the afternoon to sort out a problem noticed from the previous work and that got that fixed immediately. Luis left around 8pm last night after being on site for 10 hours. The channels and hole have a great finish and we now have a clean water system that we know we can be happy with. Mike, Blas and the team can always be relied upon. Informative, Helpful, polite, professional, great workmanship and they don't rip anyone off. We always recommend them to anyone we meet. Thanks again fellas, you are all STARS!" (June 2017) | Kim & Elaine Sonnex | |

"We just had to say how fab our 'not porch' is and the glass in the front door is inspired! Has to be seen to be believed. A big thank you to you and the team". (May 2017) "Whilst writing, can we say again how pleased we are so far with the kitchen tiling. Like all of the Hamilton-Leon team, your guys are patient as they try to explain something and wait for us to understand with our limited Spanish; they are very good tilers and they simply get on with the job. We are loving the way our plans and Hamilton-Leon expertise are coming together and we are very much looking forward to seeing it finished ready for the kitchen units". (April 2017) |

| "Hamilton Leon were recommended to me by my friends who had been delighted with the quality of the work the company had done for them. I had a vision of what I wanted to do. Along came Mike and Blas who immediately showed genuine interest and enthusiasm for my ideas. They listened to what I wanted and explained what was possible. Basically it was all possible. The attention to detail is perfect. The workmen are all very friendly, skilful and extremely hard working. They arrive on time and always clean up at the end of the day and, added to that, if they see something extra that needs doing they just get on and do it. They genuinely seem to enjoy their work and certainly pride themselves on doing a good job. Blas makes regular visits to ensure all is going well and Mike stays in constant touch either by visits, email or phone. Felia is invaluable in the office. She keeps you informed of any planned visits, accompanies you on shopping trips and acts as an interpreter between you and the workmen if needed. I would wholeheartedly recommend Hamilton Leon to anyone considering having any alterations or repairs done to their property. If you want a first class service then they would be the ones to choose. I am saving up again now for the next round of improvements and there’s no prizes for guessing who I’ll get to do the work. A big thank you to the whole team". (April 2017) | Diane Davies | |

"We commissioned Hamilton Leon to build a tennis court at our villa but before we even got to that point we had problems with our laptop computer. Although this had nothing whatsoever to do with the tennis court Mike arranged to have it taken to a repair shop for us and then sorted out some further issues with it himself. Now to the tennis court, Mike, Blas and the team they employed were working to a very tight timescale of under 3 weeks to complete everything including clearing the site of 30 olive trees. The specialist team were extremely professional and worked long hours every day with no disruption to ourselves and despite losing 3 days to rain and snow (yes snow in Southern Spain!) completed the court on schedule and left the site in a very tidy state. The end result is a fabulous tennis court which has completely transformed that end of our plot and enhanced our property no end. I would recommend Mike, Blas and team to anyone. Just need to learn to play tennis now!" (February 2017) |

| "Having building work done is stressful at the best of times but when it's on your holiday home and you aren't there to oversee it then it's potentially even more stressful. We wanted some alterations done to the internal layout of our home in Spain and Hamilton Leon were recommended to us by a friend. I always found Mike and Blas to be friendly, punctual and very professional. With their experience of other properties, they were able to suggest some good ideas to the rough plans I had already prepared. They kept us infomed as to progress by e-mailing photos of the work in progress. When I returned to Spain I found that the work had been carried out to an excellent standard and most pleasing of all was that the house was spotlessly clean. The final bill was all as quoted with no unwanted surprises. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone and I have already pencilled them in for our next project". (February 2017) | Chris Campbell | |
| “Following the wonderful work Hamilton Leon did raising our roof, we went ahead and engaged them to reform two more bathrooms and re-tile the entire top floor of our house. The standard of works has to be seen to be believed – wonderful! And the two workers who did the wall and floor tiling were so polite and charming – their English was limited as was our Spanish but with humour and sign language, we more than managed. We had returned to England before the works were finished but Hamilton Leon did not leave site until perfection was achieved. We are now planning our next project with Hamilton Leon – extending the kitchen and raising the outside terrace!" (January 2017) | Beverley & Stephen Potter | |
| "Having had a terrible experience with our previous Spanish builder, We are so happy with Hamilton Leon S.L. We would give them seven stars, but only five are available. We had a few special requests for building our extension and we were thinking of what our previous builder would say: "No, that's impossible." Upon hearing our requests, experienced builder Blas Leon immediately told us: "Everything is possible". Not only did he supervise the works, he even personally participated in the building, to make sure that everything was perfect. A real perfectionist, Blas. Only the best is good enough. Mike and Blas think along, come up with solutions, help you out with everything ... We think they're top class and have been recommending them to all our friends and acquaintances in Spain!" (December 2016) |

| "We were recommended to Hamilton Leon by our managing agents. From the very first moment we met Mike and Blas we were very impressed and had no hesitation in asking them to undertake the work required. They started and finished the job on time and nothing was too much trouble for them. We spent time with Mike shopping for tiles and bathroom furniture which was time well spent. They kept to the agreed price with no hidden “extras”. We were in England when the work was carried out but were kept up to date with regular progress reports and photographs. It is not often we write commendations such as this but in this case it is very deserved as we are thrilled with the job done".(December 2016) | Paul & Sue Feldman | |
| "Hamilton Leon completed a series of projects for us. They replaced our terrace roof which was old and ugly and made of corrugated iron, they came up with a beautiful solution and our terrace now looks as though it has a tiled roof and they even managed to match the tiles to the tiles on the roof of the house, they created a shower room which is lovely, they replaced our old broken gate and we now have an entrance with kerb appeal and made our summer kitchen look amazing. We can't thank you enough, we are delighted with it all. We want to thank you all Mike, Blas, Joyce and all the guys who were brilliant. We would recommend you to anyone and in fact we already have!!! We give you the full 5 stars". (December 2016) | Susan Taylor | |
| "Hi Mike, Just a quick message to say a very big thank you for replacing the boiler so quickly. We have hot water and it's just great! It feels like the house is becoming a proper home now - so grateful to you! Best wishes". (November 2016) | Laura Bassett | |

"Hamilton Leon were recommended to us and what a recommendation. We had only been to Spain to look for a house twice . We then bought one. We were and still are novices about most things Spanish. Thank god for Mike and Blas. Efficient, trustworthy and their work, well I can't find fault with it. We go to Spain, ask them to do the work come back to the uk , they do the work , we go back , hey presto . Transformation . What more could you ask for ? Oh yes . The price . That's great too . We wouldn't even consider using anyone else as there is nothing that they can't turn their hand to and whatever they do is always superb. They even did our entire irrigation system . We would highly recommend them for any Job however small or big you won't find anyone better . Shame the rating only goes to five stars, they deserve more". (October 2016) |

Kind Regards and Thank you". (October 2016) |

"We hired Mike, Blas & his team initially to install a pool & balustrade in our garden. The team of people who made our vision a reality were professional & hardworking, ensuring all was to our satisfaction at every stage. Everything ran to time & on budget. We have just had the team back to do some further work inside our casa (ripping out a chimney & installing a new log burner). Again the work the team did exceeded all expectations. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Hamilton Leon to anyone wanting a professional job for a reasonable price. Thanks so much". (September 2016) |

“Having been introduced to Mike and Blas by some friends, we engaged them to carry out a reformation of our front gates before embarking on what was, for us, a very significant project – raising the roof on one side of our house! This work was carried out in the most professional way and it has made such a positive difference. Although we were in the UK when the works were done, because Mike sent us frequent photographs and kept us updated by email, we felt we were really part of the project. We also included a new en-suite and a reformation of another bathroom as part of the project and all of the work was exactly as we had agreed – on time, on budget and beautifully carried out!

"Hamilton Leon were suggested to us by Spanish Property Choice in Mojacar when we were looking for a renovation of the kitchen and bathroom in our new apartment. This proved to be an excellent recommendation. Blas is obviously a knowledgable experienced builder and Mike was a pleasure to deal with. For a little extra spend we have ended up with a new looking apartment. The work went well above and beyond what was expected and the quality of finish in the bathroom and kitchen are very high. Our apartment is very small so do not think that Hamilton Leon are only interested in big projects! Mike is totally trustworthy and sent us photos regularly whilst ensuring that the work was completed on time. Thoroughly recommended"! (April 2016) |

"Here a few words to say thanks for the good ideas, the coordination and the practical realization of our dream. Not only the new pool and the outside kitchen, but also the refurbishment of the entire house was as we expected, finished on time and for a fair price. Now, almost a year after we moved in, we have a clear view of the work you delivered, and I can assure you (and everybody else) that working with you and your company was a 5 star quality experience. It really was the best choice we could have made!" (November 2015) |

"Dear Mike and Blas, Just have to say ...... I am stunned and want to pinch myself !! Steve and I have just been to visit the New House you are building for us in Aguaderas. We both can not believe how much progress in a short space of time. Only 4 months into the Build stage and everything you said and MORE at our first meeting has been achieved. The quality of the Build and Materials throughout is first class. It is obvious that all your employees on site are happy in their work and are always polite to us, even though we can not speak Spanish !! You and Blas make a great team and have both been fantastic making the process so much easier for Us. Looking forward to many more site visits until completion. Muchas Gracias." (September 2015) |

"Mike and Blas came to our rescue two days after we arrived in Spain. They gave us plans/costings and we had the work done. Their workforce worked tirelessly throughout all the jobs which they have completed. The guys are trustworthy, honest, hardworking, friendly and brilliant at the work they do. Nothing is too much for them. We plan to have a lot more work done on the property and no one but Mike and Blas will get the jobs. They are magnificent." (August 2015) |

"When we think about Mike Hamilton and Blas Leon the predominant terms are trustworthy and reliable. Apart from the quality of their buildings we could firmly establish that their service does not end when the work is finished and the invoices are paid. For foreigners moving to Spain this makes all the difference. Their everlasting commitment to customer service and satisfaction must be an extremely valuable asset for their company". (May 2015) |

"Would be delighted to award you both 5 stars but think you deserve 10 and they must be gold! I feel privileged to have you work for us and am continually impressed with your desire to do the best possible job, your thoughts and attention to detail are very much appreciated. You make us feel as though we are your only clients always having time to help and advice. Frequently going the extra mile. Two examples of this are on our last trip over when it had been raining and you went and checked and redid the road to ensure we could access the house easily when we arrived. The other was checking that everything was working in our newly purchased house just before we were planning to stay for our night and discovering that the boiler was not working properly and installing a new one all with out any drama just because you felt it was the right thing to do."
