## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Be Built have partnered with us to improve our terraced house in phases. We started with the downstairs living room, including a smart knock through. Flooring, all woodwork, bespoke ply shelving and various repairs to joists were all needed. Barnaby has high standards - for example, woodwork quality was the best for the circumstances. The building has left us with a great finish which has made our home much more enjoyable. These are great builders, easy to contact and very amenable."

> "I was extremely lucky to meet Barney and the team and have them do the entire refit. This is my fourth complete refurbishment and I’ve never experienced such professionalism and good workmanship. They are also extremely affable and make a big, messy, complicated job stress free and right on budget too. A lot of firsts for me. I can’t recommend them enough."

> "Barnaby has done several jobs for us from chippie work / several kitchens and splitting house into two flats and soundproofing entire property. He and the team have always been great - showed up on time / left site tidy and generally been really straightforward. Building jobs CAN be done that simply! Would definitely recommend as long as he’s available for our next job!!!"

## 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.
