Highlights
"Dave and his team were great from start to finish. From getting a quote and a start date Dave was very prompt and on the case. We appreciated his input and experience regarding the work that needed to be done. His team were punctual, tidy and very friendly and polite. Their work was carried out to a high standard. We would definitely use them again and will be more than happy to recommend to anyone."
"Really efficient, polite, knowledgeable company. Ours wasn't a straightforward job as it needed some solar panels moving to get to the problem. Hilsons coordinated the scaffolding and electrician to do this and then the job was completed very promptly and efficiently. Really happy with the work and those that carried our the job. Would definitely use again if there was a problem and would definitely recommend this company."
"Second time Dave has done some work for me, this time removing a chimney. Previously replacing guttering, fascia etc. Professional outfit that works to a high standard."

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.
