Highlights
"Bob and his team were very easy to work with from start to finish. They were prompt and worked weekends where needed to ensure each stage was ready for the next (roof, flooring, plastering etc). Bob and his team are friendly and honest and always kept us in the loop with what was happening and what to expect next. Everything was kept tidy and accessible and they were mindful of the surrounding properties."
"They were extremely efficient in every aspect of the work carried out. Very hard working team. Very helpful and friendly and got on with the work and completed all aspect to a very high standard. Nothing was too much trouble to do. We would certainly have them again to do some work on the property."
"The work was done quickly, to a very high standard and at the agreed price. Bob's communication with me was good and both he and his tradesman, Lee, were always polite and friendly. The job site was cleaned up after each days work and the place was left clean and dust free when all the work was finished. I have used Bob on many occasions in the past, have always been happy with the quality and timely delivery of his work. I will definitely use Bob again when the occasion arises and would recommend Bob to anyone needing property maintenance."

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.
