Highlights
"Converted a room into a bedroom. Work was completed quickly and to a high standard. Very tidy throughout, with excellent plastering and electrical work. Would definitely recommend"
"The work was carried out to a good slandered and to time."
"We had an old building at the end of our garden that had been badly damaged by damp over the years. Kevin has completely transformed it! He insulated the interior, split it into two rooms, added new windows, decorated throughout, and rendered the outside. It now looks amazing – it’s hard to believe it’s the same space. Kevin is a very hard worker and really listens to what you need. He’s also a genuinely friendly guy, which makes the whole process much more comfortable – it never felt awkward having him around. We're so pleased with the result and would happily recommend him to anyone looking"

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.
