Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Highlights
“I would highly recommend GRF builders. We had a kitchen extension done and the team managed the whole project including kitchen fitting. I found the whole process from our first meeting with Graham, through to the extension build stress free. I had never been through any project as big as this, and we couldn’t have done it without the team. Graham is very knowledgable and offers advice and options along the way. The GRF team are perfectionists and kept the site clean and as tidy as possible at all times. All the trades they work alongside are polite and professional.”
“We wanted to move our kitchen into the garage room and change the layout of the existing kitchen to create a more open and free flowing space. From quote to finish Graham has been brilliant. He has project managed the whole thing and has managed all other trades required for our project. (Builders, electricians, plumber, carpenter, plasterer, flooring fitter etc). The work has been of good quality and the communication has been great. Always turned up when expected - very reliable. Very happy with the work and would highly recommend.”
“I would highly recommend GRF Builders to anyone looking to have work completed. Graham was highly professional, organised and had great attention to detail. Him and his team were punctual, hard working and always kept the area tidy. Communication was great throughout the project and work fitted well with original schedule and quote. We wouldn't hesitate to use GRF builders again in the future.”

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.
