Highlights
"Highly recommend to others. Rainwater coming into your house is never a great experience but I was impressed with the speedy response to our request to quote, diagnosis in line with others and the speed of starting works. John's attention to detail and hand's on project management meant we always had someone to talk to throughout, with regular updates throughout. He was the only contractor who pointed us towards building control. Quality output and reasonable price for completing the works. Can't fault."
"Very supportive, clear communication and high level of confidence in the work completed."

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.
