“I was recommended by a neighbour to Mr Barry Jane's. I wanted a new Shower Room Installed. I found from day one Mr Jane’s was very polite and professional, arriving on time each morning and tidied up each evening. His workmanship is excellent, he explained any problems and how it could be fixed, nothing was too much trouble. He showed amazing attention to detail, pointing out things I hadn’t thought of. I am thrilled with the end result, passed my expectation. It was a pleasure to have him work in my home and wouldn’t hesitate to use his services again.”

Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Highlights
“Barry recently completed the erection of a five door Howden wardrobe for us. He went above and beyond to include us in installation and detail decision making to ensure that we would be very happy with the completed project. We can't thank Barry enough.”
“Forming a en-suite shower room in our master bedroom. Work included the removal of a built in wardrobe, the erection of timber stud partitions, the installation of vanity units, sanitary ware, wall tiling, floor finishes and decorations together with all necessary electrical and plumbing works. Barry took great care to ensure that there was minimal dust or disturbance and was meticulous in his approach to final detailing and finishing. If we could give a satisfaction score higher than ten, we would.”

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.
