Detailed reviews
Luke took the trouble to assess the requirement a few days earlier so that he could fit it in sensibly with his schedule. Having agreed a date, he turned up promptly and wasted no time in setting himself up to do the work which he completed entirely to our satisfaction by the end of the morning! We would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for his skills and requiring a highly professional finish and approach.
Excellent. Worked really hard and great attitude. I felt very comfortable with them in my home. 100% recommend Drakes Carpentry.

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.
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.
