## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "The team at A&R have been absolutely brilliant. Reece provided an accurate quote to resolve a damp issue in a Victorian property spanning across three floors which helped with initial expectations. However, the work became more substantial than expected as a result of such a thorough job completed. Communication was clear throughout, and they worked fast and kept the property incredibly clean. Incredibly friendly and professional, they will be my first port of call for future jobs."

> "They were very professional and great people to have on board. Honest and reliable. I couldn’t have asked for better. They gave me a realistic quote and stuck within the budget agreed. I definitely recommend them!"
> Source: Barbara S (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "Professional, personable and efficient from the minute Reece came round to give us a quote til the minute they left after the job was completed. Nothing was too much trouble and Reece and his lads went over and above what was expected. Friendly, polite and always with a smile on their faces. Very pleased with how my garden looks. Will definitely be recommending them to my family and friends and will call on them again in the future."

## 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.
