AJ South overhauled two of our flat roofs, removed a chimney stack and did some other building works around our home and we couldn't be happier with the results. They work to exceedingly high standards with great attention to detail, and go above and beyond to ensure they deliver the best quality job possible. The site was always clean and tidy, and they were great at communicating with us ensuring that we knew what was happening and when. We highly recommend AJ South and we'll be getting them back in the future to do more works on our home.

Alex at AJ South is completely the only builder I use. I have used him alot for working around my houses. On this job he demolished an existing side gate/enterence, built up a new pier on one side and fabricated new gates from scratch to the most highest of standards. We couldnt be more happy with the work. Thanks again Alex. Lookig forward to the next project. We would highly recomened his services!
Alex has done an amazing job creating a beautiful extension to compliment our old flint cottage. His skills in all areas were excellent - from groundworks, to bricklaying, and roofing and the final carpentry on the front oak frame is stunning. He was tidy, punctual and kept us up to speed with any building issues as well as offering solutions. It wasn’t a straightforward project - but we were really impressed with his work ethic and carpentry skills and can’t recommend him enough!

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.
