_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_

Dominic, was great from the outset, in terms of quoting for the work, sourcing the doors, other materials and arranging delivery. The installation went extremely smoothly. Dominic is a reliable, skilful craftsman. He is also a very pleasant and helpful chap. We’ll definitely use Dominic again in the future."

## 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.
