Highlights
“Alan was fantastic and we cannot rate him highly enough! Our block and render extension included a large lantern and 8metres of bifolds, Alan gave us great advise on our designs helping us save money whilst still getting the outcome we wanted. His standard of workmanship, knowledge and experience was brilliant and made the project go so smoothly. Alan and Chris kept the site tidy and were very polite and got on well with our neighbours. We felt comfortable with them around our home which was a great relief when we had a newborn in the house! We will recommend Alan all friends and family.”
“A R Home Improvements - Alan and his labourer Chris - were excellent in every way. Very tidy, great work in every aspect from start to finish. Would highly recommend them.”

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.
