Highlights
"I really couldn’t be happier with the work carried out by Martin. I’ve used his services regularly for around 18 months now, and throughout this time he has consistently delivered excellent workmanship. He takes the time to troubleshoot maintenance issues properly rather than applying quick fixes that won’t last, and his communication is always clear, timely, and professional. Everything is handled with real care, and it’s clear he takes pride in doing the job right. I would confidently recommend Martin and his team to anyone looking for a trustworthy, skilled builder who gets the job done pro"
"Martin, is somebody we trust and have used to do a plethora of jobs in our home. Always to a high standard, very professional and a truly nice guy. He more recently fixed a small leak on the front of the house which required some thought and innovation. He comes highly recommended."
"Martin comes to our office on a monthly basis to carry out maintenance & painting requirements we have."

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.
