Highlights
"Quick response, excellent communication from Joe and a job well done. Honest, reliable and professional. Really happy and will use again."
"Joe and his team at Calcor did a fantastic job with traditional repointing weather struck lime mortar and installation of a lime rendered plinth at ground level. No hesitation recommending Calcor. Joe kept me fully informed with progress with photographs and video as I live 110 miles away and he managed the tenant relationship throughout the works."

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.
Want an extra legitimacy check?
Run the Cowboy Checker on Calcor Building Contractors Ltd before you contact them.
