Highlights
"Very competitive pricing and did a cracking job of my patio, garden and side gate. Around 70sq m of patio, along with a path down the side of the house with a gate. Also did some turfing an building up parts of the garden and laying sleepers. Very happy with the work and great communication."
"Great job done. 👍"
"WE are pleased with the work Varlin did, he and his staff were friendly. Expected start date was delayed due to the weather and took longer than expecte due to illness by a day. Overall we are more than happy with Carlin's work, and the price was good as well."

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.
