Highlights
"Absolutely over the moon with the work completed by George in our home. He is professional, polite, tidy and very skilled at what he does. Would definitely recommend and will definitely use again."
"Another perfect job by George, two more doors fitted very professionally. Very pleased with the work done. Will definitely recommend."
"We commissioned George to refurbish and install our understairs cupboards and staircase, following a recommendation and having viewed his workmanship on Instagram. We found George to be an excellent carpenter. Very skilled with great attention to detail taking immense pride in his work. We found him to be very efficient though took time to ensure his work met his own very high standards. George was very respectful and cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each day. We would highly recommend George for anyone seeing quality and skilled carpentry."

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.
