## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Our son used APS services during his house refurbishment last year and we were very impressed with the high quality of the workmanship. So we asked him to design some bespoke built in wardrobes for us. Adrian kept in contact to ensure we were happy with the design and build which was really helpful. During installation we were very impressed with Adrian’s attention to detail. He is a perfectionist – we can’t imagine him saying “that will do” as he wants everything to be just so, and we are very impressed with his work ethic."

> "APS Carpentry deserves every 5-star review they receive. Adrian is a fantastic leader, calm, honest, and transparent, and his team is professional, hardworking, polite and clean. Their expertise is second to none; they fixed our badly squeaky staircase, a job other carpenters couldn't guarantee, and it is now completely noiseless. They also installed beautiful glass panels, new doors, skirting, and a TV unit, all done with great precision and care. Excellent communication throughout. I wholeheartedly recommend Adrian and the APS team for any job."

## Before you hire a builder
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- 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.
