Highlights
"Stuart was not only completely professional but also very reliable and well organised. The quality of work was of the highest standard and at each stage kept us completely in the picture and talked through any issues that we may have had."
"An excellent professional service. The quote was accurate and explained fully. The job was a re-roof of an old cottage which was to be completed the Friday before Christmas. Work was done to a high standard, was sympathetic to the nature of the building and although we were away at the time we were kept fully informed as to the progress made. Although the weather was horrendous with rain and high winds the work only overran by a couple of days with the team going above and beyond to complete as soon as possible. We would not hesitate in recommending this firm to others."

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.
