Highlights
“Barrie removed the remains of an old chimney that we discovered hidden behind our old kitchen units. He also over-boarded the ceilng and repaired some dodgy brickwork around the window. Finally he plastered the room ready for painting & the new kitchen. He worked very hard and completed the job early - including tidying up! Would highly recomend.”
“Barrie has just completed some work for us despite awful weather was completed on time. Our work consisted of replacing our front path, smartening up a low wall which had over the years lost some bricks, a hard standing for our wheelies and finally a small area of repointing”
“A superb job. Barrie is very knowledgeable and friendly. He fully described and priced the job and then worked tirelessly and carefully, readily explaining things as he worked and asking my preference. Even when I was fussy about about the insulation, it wasn’t an issue. The finished effect of the plastering is excellent. The site was left very clean and tidy with suggestions as to how and when to decorate. I’ve already asked him to price more work and accepted the quote.”

Worth checking yourself

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.
