“We are absolutely thrilled with our garden. MJ’s professionalism was clear from the start; he listened to our ideas and offered excellent suggestions that improved the design. The project was completed efficiently, on schedule, and with impeccable workmanship. MJ was a pleasure to have around—always friendly, approachable, and positive. Communication was seamless, and he was patient and accommodating with all our requests. His passion for his work and dedication to client satisfaction are truly commendable, and he was even wonderful with our dog. We couldn't be happier with the result.”

“We recently completed a double story extension with Blake Homes, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, the process was seamless and professionally managed. The quality of workmanship was outstanding. Every detail was thoughtfully executed, and the finished extension has really transformed our home. MJ, the builder ,was communicative, reliable, and respectful. We are so pleased with the end result and will be using the company again for any future work. Would highly recommend!”

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.
