Highlights
"Good knowledgeable people. Turned up when they said. Clean and tidy work. Able to work around problems encountered on site without any dramas. Nice attention to detail. Thoroughly recommend this company and the team. Floor fitting good. Bathroom is good. Kitchen is excellent (as so many issues with the design to work around). Thank you."
"House refurb (of bathroom & whole house redecoration) Szymon is easy to talk to and keen to do what is need to get the job done in the way you want it done. The initial brief was soon expanded to include a new kitchen and flooring throughout the ground floor - an indication of how pleased I was with the work that had been done up to then. He and his small team have an eye for the fine detail and I'm very pleased with the end results. It's a pleasure to just stop and stare in each room throughout the house - they look great :)."
"Painting two rooms, fitting shelves Friendly and very reliable - Szymon did an excellent job and cleaned up at the end of the job. Throughout the whole process, from getting the quote to completion of the work, Szymon was quick to communicate and respond to messages. I will definitely be hiring him again in the future. Thank you!"

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.
