> "I would like to say a big thank you to Dave Fry the owner of Fry Brickwork for the works he has just completed on my property. Dave is a very polite man and is very professional and has a very methodical approach to his work. During our build Dave also came up with some great ideas which made our final product much better than the way the architect had planned our drawings to which I am so grateful for. Dave’s brickwork was absolutely superb and all of the internal works plastering, painting and the fit of my kitchen are all fantastic. Thank you so much for all your hard work."

## 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.
