> "Alex has swept the chimney for us since 2021, always prompt, polite and super clean in protecting the house from probably the dirtiest job that you can have done. More recently, we took advice from Alex on which log burner to install when we moved into a house with an awful gas fire. Alex’s advice was excellent, further on - we’ve had Alex install a Clock Blithfield 5 burner (it’s amazing!). The attention to detail on the install of the burner, new tiled hearth and our new surround was second to none. Alex priced the work competitively and delivered an amazing job."

## Before you hire a roofer
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade — general guidance, not a claim about this business:_
- Never agree to roof work from a cold-caller at your door or an unsolicited 'we noticed your roof' note — that is the classic roofing scam.
- Get a written quote that itemises access (scaffolding or a tower), the exact materials, and the workmanship guarantee — not a vague day rate.
- Be wary of demands for a large cash deposit; agree staged payments against work you can actually see completed.
- Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
- Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
