Highlights
"Darren Hall's name was passed onto us by a friend and so glad it was. Totally professional and friendly. He and his son did three jobs for us one of them laying a concrete base, we were so happy with his work and his attitude we also asked him to erect a large "summer house" on the base he had laid. We were going to erect the "summer house" ourselves but when we saw it after delivery we realised the job was too big. Darren soon discovered the "summer House" was of a dubious quality and he had to make several alterations to the building. Conscientious, and honest."
"Darren & his team have just completed a garage to living room conversion. The whole project was handled in a timely and professional manner and the quality of all works exemplary. Darren offered lots of advice when needed and the project sailed through building control with no problems. Highly recommended and will be using him for a kitchen refit in the future."
"We’ve used Darren Hall for 4 jobs over 2 years. He bent over backwards to ensure we got what we wanted. He has a ‘can do’ attitude unlike other builders. We’d use him again anytime."

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.
