## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "We chose Applethorpe through a personal recommendation. They have managed our major renovation. They have been efficient and responsive throughout the works, offering excellent advice and guidance. From the start of the project, with structural drawings including all areas of the building work, up to final finishing. The trades men on site have been polite and conscientious completing work to a high standard. Contractors have arrived in a timely manner to complete all the required work. Our experience of working with them has been really positive. I would recommend them without hesitation."

> "Applethorpe Developments carried out an extension to our property, comprising of a utility room and a one bedroom annexe, with kitchen/lounge/diner and bathroom. Prior to commencement we received a detailed cost and time plan. The whole team were great, we were updated weekly on what would be happening and who would be on site. All works were completed in a timely manner and all trades including electricians/plumbers/painters/carpenters/kitchen fitters were very tidy, respectful and helpful. The end result is fabulous, great workmanship. Would highly recommend!"

This made the process transparent and avoided any major surprises. Neil is very knowledgeable which increased my trust in the solutions and potential final outcomes.

## 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.
