Craig did a great job resolving the issue and repairing the damage. Excellent service, good communications, took real pride in doing a good job and ensuring I was happy with his work, reasonable price. And to top it all off a really nice guy to have in the house. Would thoroughly recommend his services. Thanks Craig" > Source: krish R (5.0, via Checkatrade) > "Our kitchen is going to be with us for a long time, although old, over 20 years, it is sound with no faults aside from the hob which was failing and the evil cooker hood which was designed to gouge your head when cooking. When the extractor needed replacing we decided to replace the evil hood, but getting something to match was an issue. Craig took the brief and had a good think and came up with a really good way to remodel it. Craig worked hard to get the details right & was not phased when hidden features caused problems. a pleasant guy who was proud of his high standards. Before & after" > Source: Ian Spencer (5.0, via Checkatrade) > "Brilliant service and excellent plumber. Craig came and gave me a quote on fitting a kitchen sink and taps. Very good competitive price, Craig gave me date and time to fit kitchen sink and taps and came on the time he said, very punctual. It probably took longer than expected as Craig had to cut hole larger than the one that was already there but still charged me what he quoted, also cleaned everywhere after finishing. I highly recommend castle and fern." > Source: Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade) ## Trades Builder, Carpenter, Painter / decorator, Kitchen designer ## Services they list _Listed on public sources or the business's own website; check directly that they cover your job before you book:_ - Bespoke Kitchens - Supply & Installation - Kitchen Appliance Supplier - Kitchen Designers - Kitchen Doors - Installation - Kitchen Doors - Repair - Kitchen Doors - Supply & Installation - Kitchen Fitters - Installation - Kitchen Fitters - Supply & Installation - Kitchen Refurbishments - Painting Kitchen Cabinets - Replace kitchen cabinets - Replacement Doors and Drawers ## Areas covered _Towns and areas this trader lists serving.

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. ## Contact - Phone: 07413 075038 --- Source: MyTrustedTraders, https://mytrustedtraders.com/traders/castle-fern Real public evidence only: every figure traces to its named source.
