About Us
R&J Building Services is led by Jon Fish, a widely experienced specialist builder based in Bedfordshire. Jon's career in construction spans more than 40 years, and that depth of hands-on experience is at the heart of how we operate today.
Jon's journey into building started the traditional way, as an apprentice and progressed his skills through hands on experience with local builder before setting up his own company:
- Trained as an apprentice, spending 5 years at college learning the trade
- Gained knowledge in the practical skills every builder needs before working as a qualified tradesman
- Went on to work for a local builder, building on what he'd learned & gaining real experience on projects
- Used this experience, with a clear idea of how building work should be done, to eventually set up his own company
Jon has always been a local man, born in Clifton but later moved to Langford and soon settled in Lower Stondon, where R&J Building Services is now based. His local grounding matters more than it might seem, he knows the area, its properties and the kind of work that suits Bedfordshire homes and businesses, built up over decades rather than picked up from a manual. It's also given the company a strong local reputation, one that's been earned project by project over more than 40 years of trading as R&J Building Services.
Rather than working alone, Jon leads a team of skilled and experienced builders who share his commitment to high standards. As well as general building work, the team includes:
- Carpenters
- Plumbers
- Electricians
- Plasterers
- Decorators
- Roofers
- Bricklayers
Meaning most projects can be carried out from start to finish without the need to bring in separate subcontractors for each stage. This approach gives clients a single point of contact throughout projects, whether that's a small carpentry job or a full new build and means the same standard of work applies regardless of size.
That standard is backed up by proper accreditation. R&J Building Services is:
- Fully insured
- A Which? Trusted Trader
- Member of Trust A Trader for 14 years
The company also has a strong reputation for commercial shop fitting work across Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire, alongside its residential building projects.
Under Jon's leadership, a large amount of the company's work continues to come from returning clients and personal recommendations, something that reflects the trust built up over decades of working in the local area. For Jon and the team, that reputation is worth more than any amount of advertising, and it's the standard every project is still measured against.
