“I had a front extension build by Colin, his sons and team. All involved did a fantastic job. We are thoroughly pleased with everything that was done. They have completed the work to a high standard and are very easy going in terms of adapting to changes should you wish to make tweaks here and there along the way. Its not easy getting people to trust these days but we found Colin and team very reliable and we will definitely ask Colin again if we have any projects he maybe can help us with in the future.”

Highlights
“We are so pleased with the work Colin, Dean and Scott have done. From the quote onwards they’ve been clear, good communication all through the process. We moved into our property in summer which had a leaky 1980s conservatory. We wanted it to be the same footprint but a proper room. The work is a really high standard, the specific windows we wanted obtained, rendering outside that looks great. All the way along they checked how we’d want to use the room so we got the windows in the right spot. Polite and respectful to neighbours, next door even praising the brickwork! Highly recommend!”
“I first used Colin and hus sons 14 years ago, I wouldn't use anyone else now. I have had Colin back twice on other jobs. We now have another project under way. His estimates have always been very good and never once finished a project over the estimate. I would recommended Colin to anyone. His integrity is beyond reproach.”

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.
