## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Very happy with the work done by Ricky and Conran on my extension roof. Quality work on time and actually under budget, on a less than straightforward job which makes the result all the more pleasing. Would not hesitate to recommend"
> — Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "Rick and Conran were both really friendly and polite. They gave recommendations on what doors I should have and cheaper alternatives. They kept me informed as to when the work would be completed and how long it would take. They made the whole process seem effortless, which after a previous disaster with a so called carpenter, has restored my faith in this trade. The doors look amazing which I never thought I’d be able to say again! I would definitely recommend and wouldn’t go elsewhere. Thank you!"
> — Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "Rick and Conran are exception carpenters, polite, prompt and professional. I thoroughly enjoyed working with C&G Carpentry services and I would recommend them to anyone. I will definitely be using them again in the future."
> — Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade)

## 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.
