Highlights
"I needed some re pointing and a partial rebuild of a tricky to reach gable end wall. Martin recommended a good scaffolder he had worked with so that the area could be accessed. The re pointing was done to a good standard and the partial rebuild turned out better than I had expected. A fiddly job done well. Thanks Martin."
"Martin rebuilt a garden wall for us and was always easy to communicate with, reliable and tidy when working. Very happy with the finished job and would highly recommend."
"You never quite know who you're going to get.. but with Martin from Royston Brickwork, I got a very experienced tradesman who's standard was like he was doing work at his own home, his punctuality and communications were outstanding, you could probably get cheaper, but will you regret it? I would thoroughly recommend him to friends and family. Value of job below was for the 3 days labour only, but he didn't stop working the whole time!"

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.
