Highlights
"The Black Sheep guys have done multiple jobs on my house in Tunbridge Wells - they have always been considerate, hard working and kind. I have used most builders in Tunbridge Wells, so I can confidently say that the Black Sheep guys are the best - not only are they incredibly efficient and thorough, but they also charge fairly for their work."
"We had these guys over to do some bathroom tiling and they were so professional that we then had them back to do wallpapering (excellent workmanship but also very good quote); worktop in the bathroom, they build a garden shed for my husban’s tennis machine under the stairs to his specification and it was perfect; they put shelves in my daughter’s bedroom; fixed the roof of our porch; fixed some of the cabinets in the kitchen.They’re very professional however small or big the job is. Great communication, they leave the place tidy and very good quality of work.Def will have them back 4 more jobs"
"Black Sheep Building services responded quickly to my request for a quote, which included VAT - so the total price was made clear. They worked hard and efficiently and did a fantastic job - clearing up thoroughly afterwards."

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.
Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
