Highlights
"Asked for a quote on my doors! Very reliable and trustworthy. The job was done within a few hours! Looks great couldn't be happier! Had 3 doors fitted and a cupboard door fitted!"
"Craig surveyed the job required, quoted a reasonable price and as it was not too big a task got on with it straight away! Very clean/tidy and efficient; 1st class workmanship, we have no hesitation in recommending him."
"Craig was amazing. He came and assessed the job and gave me a fair price. He was very clear with what materials were needed and even helped by bringing some of the materials himself that I wasn’t sure about purchasing myself due to lack of knowledge. He was on time and able to explain the issues with the job. He came and completed the work with no issues."

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.
