## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Excellent! A complete joy to see craftsmanship still exists. Gary totally transformed my home with a well fitted kitchen, new doors throughout and he put up a stub partition wall to create 2 smaller rooms. His work is executed with skill and he goes above and beyond to get the best. Then he’s gone home not leaving any mess , with the only evidence he’s been is his transformation. He had my keys too as I trusted him implicitly. Brilliant work."

> "I had a wren bedroom installed by Gary, it took 2.5 days for total completion.. Gary gave some good advice and always made sure that I agreed on certain task before he went ahead… his work is of a very high standard and the finishing product is of excellent quality. I would definitely recommend him to all my friends and family; I would also look to use his services again for any future projects I may have."

> "Gary and Ted were fantastic :) From start to finish the whole experience was smooth and stress free. They are perfectionists in their work and included me along the way in any decisions and preferences, which as a fellow perfectionist I appreciated! Was a quick, tidy and beautiful quality install, for a very reasonable price. A happy to help attitude where nothing is too much trouble. We love our new kitchen and would recommend them to anyone :)"

## 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.
