Highlights
“Neil and his team were great. He came through quickly to take a look at the work, passed over information for a structural engineer to make sure everything was done the right way and safely. Once the report came back he visited again the next morning to go through everything and provided us with a quote. Once we were happy with everything, he gave us a quick start date, arrived on time and got straight to work. Really impressed with how quickly he got everything done, and really happy with the result. Highly recommend him for any building work, and will definitely be using him again!”
“Neil’s work speaks for itself - he was prompt, fast to complete, professional, communicated well and did a first class job. I’d have no hesitation in hitting him again for any further works and recommend him wholeheartedly. I’ve included photos so you can see for yourself. Thanks Neil!”

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.
