Highlights
"I’ve used Scott for the last year. Initially to render my house and the he has stepped up and done some excellent work such as plastering, flooring and laying a concrete slab. All jobs were great value and done to perfection. I highly recommend."
"Excellent service and work. Had an issue with the tiles in my bathroom and water leaking through and going downstairs. At short notice and just before Christmas. Scott came round, had a look and sorted it out within 5 days. High quality work, always kept me informed of what was going on and I am pleased with the finished work. Highly recommend."
"Not only did the guys fit my new kitchen in just 5 days, their communication, attention to detail and friendliness was outstanding! I asked for a few bespoke touches like a rustic windowsill and heavy shelves but nothing was too much trouble! The plaster finish on the walls is smooth as glass. I am absolutely delighted with everything! Happy to recommend!"

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.
Want an extra legitimacy check?
Run the Cowboy Checker on DPR Construction before you contact them.
