Highlights
"I had a rather vague idea about transforming a dead space above a staircase in my home - Henry had the imagination and knowledge how to convert said vague idea into a possible solution and executed it amazingly, thoroughly exceeding my expectations. He is such a professional and a pleasure to deal with; recommend 100%."
"Henry was a very pleasant gentleman. Carried out the work quickly and the door is now functional again. Very pleased with the job"
"Arrived on time, kept me informed throughout, was reasonably priced. The work was charged as agreed, excepting that I asked for a slight addition and the additional cost was agreed before the extra work was undertaken. No surprises anywhere, which is the way it should be."

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.
