Highlights
"Ian was absolutely fantastic! He managed to fit us in at the last minute and went above and beyond to provide excellent service. His advice was incredibly helpful, and he made the whole process smooth and stress-free. The quality of his work and the care he put into everything was outstanding. We couldn’t be more pleased with the result and truly appreciate his professionalism and efficiency. I would highly recommend Ian to anyone looking for reliable, knowledgeable, and top-notch service!"
"Ian and his team did an excellent job replastering two bedrooms. Great communication from the beginning and honest thoughts on where to spend and save our money."
"We have employed Ian (All Purpose Improvements ) before to do carpentry work and had no hesitation in asking him and his team do demolish an old rotten staircase with a new improved staircase. The new design is safer and better all round. He and Mike also stripped out a kitchen making safe to create a new room. Pipes were cut, holes filled, skirting fitted… all done professionally. Ian and Mike are pleasant, reliable and honest. I will definitely use AllPurpose Improvements again."

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.
