## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "I cannot recommend DampCav enough. From the initial investigation through to the end, everything was fantastic. Joel was very helpful and so empathetic to the distress that finding damp in my home was. He offered and explained the solutions to my problem, but also explained what had caused it. During the work, he was very respectful of my home and supported minimal disruption. The team we clean and tidy and the works have been carried out to an extremely high standard and more than I expected. Thank you so very much."

## 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.
