Highlights
"Akil came across to Fareham and priced up the job which was the removal of 15 internal doors and hanging 15 new doors along with the supply of the selected doors and fittings. Akil arrived on the planned date and proceeded with the job. Removal of old doors was straight forward but the fitting of the new ones came with a few issues due to the frame work being not truly aligned. Akil overcame the problems we had and once all doors were installed he went back to fine tune anything that we noticed needed sorting. I would recommend Akil going forward and will use him again in due courses"
"Excellent work done quickly and for a good price."
"Akil carried out the carpentry repair work quickly and efficiently. I would strongly recommend him as I was very pleased with the excellent service he provided."

Before you hire a builder
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.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
