## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Aurel is absolutely amazing. Really friendly, professional and did a great job. Highly recommended. He replaced handles on several doors, fitted two new doors and built a new door frame and fitted another new door. Great job thank you."
> — Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "Aurel and his team are great. Used their service over the years and they never disappoint"
> — Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "Aurel was kind enough to start work early in the new year to help complete some jobs that were left unfinished by previous builders who let us down just before Christmas. He was professional and polite, as well prompt at communicating. He created two door way entrances for us and put up 2 doors. He also plumbed in a temporary kitchen sink and tap for us, as well changing the hot and cold water valves that were broken. so that we could have running water again in our kitchen. He is experienced and hard working-I would recommend him."

## 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.
