We have used Craig and his team for various projects around our property. All the work he has done is always completed on time, he assist with suggestions on how to complete work and on how the finished work will look. Overall if you want a builder to trust with value for money and good workmanship then you won’t go far wrong with CDT Builders. Steve Miller.

Alan Berry5.0 / 5 ·

Craig fitted new gutters, soffits, Fascias for me, doing a nice, clean job. He is happy to do additional work. (Those odd little jobs, ), and will return to change any issues, would willingly use again.

Esma Siddiqui5.0 / 5 ·

Craig assessed my roof promptly and repaired it within a week. A lead valley was damaged and he replaced it, tidied up the tiles and sorted out my drains. He has an honest and straightforward personality:some-one you can trust to do the best for you.

John Bradstreet5.0 / 5 ·

Craig and his team recently re-roofed our house. They were prompt, efficient, and left everything clean and tidy. Am excellent job and we were completely satisfied. Would highly recommend. Further to the above review, Craig has recently done some internal alterations to our property and we have been completely satisfied. We will be using him for our next project…garage conversion.

Christina Williams5.0 / 5 ·

I can honestly say, this firm has dealt with me and my building problem with the most respect and professionalism that I have received from a service in a long time. Craig and his team advised me the solution to my problem and then took over till the work was done and his after care and support has been immense. If you want a good honest hard working business to resolve your problem you will not go wrong with this firm. C williams. Manchester.

Frank Lawton4.7 / 5 ·

Phoned around 9-30am to have a ridge tile replaced and they responded right away job done by 12, could not ask for more. With a fair price and no this also needs doing. Well recommended.

Keith Ennion5.0 / 5 ·

Excellent Service. Unlike some other builders I have dealt with, they responded quickly and having accepted there reasonable quote they attended next day to point my chimney, reset the roof ridge tiles, and sort out some problems with the felting. Craig and his team were very friendly worked quickly and efficiently, a job well done. Keith.

Check the TrustMark register
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.
