## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "The back door of my mother's bungalow was in need of urgent repair as the joints were separating and the lock had started to malfunction. I contacted Tom one evening by email and had a response the following morning. He was able to pop round the same day, provided a temporary solution on the spot and made an appointment to repair the door and change the lock the following week. The repairs were done to a high standard and our full satisfaction. I found Tom to be very responsive, friendly and reliable."

> "Tom did a brilliant job on our old front door which was getting very stiff to open and close. He also fitted a new lock. The door is now a perfect fit. He worked very calmly and neatly, left the place very tidy. Highly recommended."

## 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.
