These are the individual reviews we hold for Empire Building Contractors Ltd, including the highlights above. The 13 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
This company built a wall for me. They left a mess everywhere. They over loaded the skip and the overload is still on my driveway. The coping stones have all fallen off the bricks. They said they would come back and clear the mess and re do the coping stones for a week but never turned up. Check a trade wrote to them but they didn't reply. I have now been left with having to get someone else in to clear the mess and re do the coping stones.

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.
