## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Just wow. Colin and his team completely rebuilt our trust in builders. After being let down it took us a while to attempt to even think about finishing our extension. Not only is Colin professional, the standard of work is excellent, communication was excellent and all round couldn’t have wished for a better result. He’s helped us make our house the home we dreamed of"

> "I cannot recommend Colin and his team enough. He was recommended to us by a good friend who had building work which we saw and were impressed with. We had an old conservatory knocked down and replaced and the whole job was done within 5 weeks. The quality of the work is exceptional, the team worked hard, cleaned up after themselves, and were incredibly efficient. Colin is a master at project management and we were impressed that all we had to do was say what we wanted and he sourced the lot from the bifold doors to the flooring and radiators. Everything was on budget and on time."

> "Big job in a small space with a tight deadline. Colin directed the plumbers and electricians and the job was done on time and within budget. The finished rooms were beautiful. A few problems were encountered on the way, Colin kept us informed and dealt with them with the minimum of disruption to the schedule. Best builders I’ve had work for me"

## Before you hire a builder
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- 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.
