Highlights
"Excellent service. A pleasure to work with this company. Would recommend"
"Ollie and Harry were excellent in all respects and we can highly recommend them. When we contacted the company Ollie turned up at the agreed time to assess the work required. The estimate arrived promptly and the work was carried out extremely efficiently and with no delay. All old materials were removed. Once again, an excellent company to deal with--two very friendly and highly competent workers."
"Ollie and Harry worked consistently to an exceptionally high standard and I had full confidence in all the work they undertook. They were reliable, punctual, and kept me informed of progress throughout. It was a pleasure to have them working in the house; they were unfailingly courteous, good-natured and were able to find solutions to any problems encountered. They tidied and cleaned up at the end of each day, including all the debris from a lath and plaster ceiling. They went above and beyond to complete the work and I would not hesitate to contact them again."

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.
