“Alcar removed my old kitchen, and fitted my new kitchen, including any electrical work and fitted my new appliances. From start to finish I completely trusted them with my new kitchen. I found Dave from Alcar to be an absolute perfectionist, he cleaned up at the end of each day and took away all the rubbish and my old kitchen and the job was completed when he said it would be. His communication and punctuality was second to none, and he kept me informed every step of the way. Dave's after sale customer service is absolutely brilliant, he even contacted me a couple of weeks later to check that”

Highlights
“Davey and his small team came to build a new kitchen extension for us. They were friendly and polite and turned up promptly each morning. Davey kept us up-to-date on every step of the project and he came up with solutions for all problems/obstacles. His quote was very reasonable and he stayed within his original quote. We love our new kitchen extension and would definitely recommend Alcar Interiors.”
“David and his team were undertaking an extension to the property next door. We had a long standing issue in the porch area of our property and thought that we would chance our luck asking them to take a look. They quickly identified the issue and completed all work while they had a gap in their schedule next door. We were very happy with the work undertaken. David was extremely helpful, particularly as the work was completed in the days leading up to Christmas when most trades are very busy. We would have no hesitation in recommending David or his team to others. Will certainly use again.”

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.
