Highlights
"Really good experience from start to finish. Workers were extremely experienced and took extra care and attention to detail. The finish is beyond what we expected, Tom was here every day checking on progress and updating us throughout the works. Kept to schedule, are clearly used to doing a lot of this work. No issues what so ever and very pleased with the final results. Would definitely recommend and have them back again. Thank you"

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.
