> "We used G and B General Building to fully renovate and remodel our bungalow. From the start Bob, was very responsive to messages, his quote was exceptionally detailed and he managed the entire project, liasing with us and other trades involved. As with all projects of this kind there some changes in requirements as the work progressed and Bob worked through everything with us, keeping us up to date as all times. All aspects of the work were completed very well and all his workmen are very skilled in their specific areas. We would not hesitate to recommend Bob and his team."

## 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.
