Highlights
"Professionally carried out the job I had advertised. Kept me informed every step of the way."
"This company built me a balcony and ramp on the front of my mobile home the wrk was outstanding very polite and respectable my husband was house bound till he had this ramp built"
"HP Contracting was hired to complete our front drive in a sun-burst brick pattern. He arrived promptly every morning and told us what he would be doing that day. Every step was completed professionally from the taking up of the old drive to the laying of the new one. Even though the sunburst was fiddly in places, the finished result is stunning. He came in on cost and there were no extra cost surprises. Would highly recommend."

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.
