Highlights
"Gareth has just completed part of a perimeter wall around my house that was damaged by a vehicle. He has made a first class job and I am so thrilled with the work he has done. He was always courteous and did a brilliant job tidying up after himself. I am very happy with his workmanship and would definitely use again and recommend. Thanks Gareth"
"Gareth and his team have just completed a project for us and we couldn't be more pleased with the work done. The standard of their work was first class, they were courteous and tidy and Gareth was always keen to make sure that we were happy with the progress being achieved. In fact we were so pleased that I have asked Gareth to quote for a couple of other projects for us, which must mean something! Thanks Gareth and hope to see you again soon."
"Very friendly, good communication, work carried out to a good standard. Few delays with getting the work started due to wrong materials."

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.
