Highlights
“We had Andy do our conversion from a garage to a bedroom. I cannot fault him at all. He always turned up on time, did the work to a great standard. He is so friendly and if we hadn’t started up conversation and offered him coffee, you wouldn’t have even known he was there! His quote was the most reasonable of all the ones we received and he actually listened to what we wanted and our budget. He arranged all the building inspections etc. Andy is amazing, highly recommend”
“I requested quotes from 3 contractors. The quote provided by Andy was typed out in full detail and was very competitive. We selected Andy to do 2 jobs that we needed. One has just been completed, which was a repair to our flat roof. He promised he would do it before Christmas and did. We are very happy with the work undertaken. Andy is coming back in the new year to re-render the front and back of our house, and, based on his already completed work, I have every confidence that he will do a good job.”

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.
