Joe did a fantastic job with our boundary wall.He meticulously looked at our needs, even involved a structural engineer .The team is very professional and always ready to listen to us and make changes to suit our needs . He kept us posted with the reasons when the team could not make it. My experience with many other companies was that you need to chase them all the time to get job done which can be tedious affair . This was completely different experience . I would recommend them Anytime
What a company! Joe was profession from start to finish. I had a roof and back extension on my home and I had no issues or problems. All work was carried out to perfection in a timely manner. His pricing was spot on and was transparent throughout. He’s made my dream come true. Such a friendly guy with an amazing team. I will recommend him to everyone and he will have all my future business. I cannot thank him enough.
Emergency plumbing carried out by One Stop Building Services today. The hot water pipe under my bath suddenly burst spraying hot water everywhere. Called these guys and they arrived within minutes ( fortunately they were only working a few streets away) they immediately turned off the water in the street as I had no access to the inside stop cock. Replaced the burst pipe and checked everything was fine. Totally saved my entire downstairs being flooded

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.
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.
