“I’m pleased I chose this company to do the tiling work I needed in my bathroom, toilet and kitchen, amongst a few other smaller jobs. The communication from Stephanie was clear, responses were quick and the quote provided was competitive. Dean is polite, knowledgeable and meticulous. Overall, I’m happy with the work completed and would definitely recommend this company, and will also be a return customer in future.”

Highlights
“We are absolutely thrilled with the bathroom our dean completed. The workmanship is outstanding—every tile is perfectly aligned, the finishes are flawless, and the overall design is both practical and stylish. Attention to detail was second to none, from the plumbing to the fixtures, everything was installed to the highest standard. The builder was professional, reliable, and kept the project on schedule. Our bathroom now feels like a high-end retreat, and we couldn’t be happier. A true 10/10 job—highly recommended!”

The job started well, I needed a shower replacing quickly as it was leaking into my kitcgen below. Dean fitted me in between other jobs so came to do work on saturdays. He did a great job of the shower and we arranged for the bathroom sink to be replaced, but the sink was damaged 'on delivery' so I had to get a replacement arranged. Steph/Dean said they would arrange to come back once the new one had come. I called/messaged them once the new one had arrived but heard nothing back, didn't answer my calls or messages. Very disappointed, and I'm still left with a half finished bathroom

Check the TrustMark registerNever 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.
