Tom and the team were great. We had them in to initially look at a rotten roof rafter in one of our dormer rooms. Tom came round, had a look and gave us his recommendations. We decided to replace the rafter, install insulation/plasterboard and skim the room. We were so pleased with the result. Following this we got him in to do another room (remove plasterboard, install insulation/new plasterboard and plaster). Again, so pleased with the results. Nothing ever seemed too much trouble and the team were always looking to offer friendly advice. Would definitely recommend.
We found everyone who worked for Tom to be highly experienced, have great attention to detail and do a brilliant job in all aspects building work and carpentry work. The whole process was managed and communicated superbly nothing was too much trouble for any of them. I would highly recommend Rugby Building and Carpentry.
We received 3 quotes and immediately felt 100% happy and confident choosing Tom, We had a loft conversion and bathroom and couldn't be happier. Phil did the majority of the work, his skills in what he does are 2nd to none, made suggestions where he thought something would be better, always left the house tidy, kept us informed everyday of what he would be doing. The whole team works so well together, we found the whole process stress free and felt completely comfortable asking questions about the work. We would 100% recommend Tom and his team and will certainly be using them for future work.

Check the TrustMark registerNever 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.
