“Outstanding! Alan and his team are true experts. They responded to my request very quickly (the same day in fact because Alan could sense that I was worried about the structural integrity of my chimney). He came over, priced the work and returned with his team three days later. I couldn’t have wished for more. They have done a wonderful job installing two period fireplaces. They are professional, polite and clean! And they are also full of good ideas and solutions. I am refurbishing a whole house so I’ve very happy to have found them. And the big bonus - they charged me a fair rate.”

Around 5 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Highlights
“Walls were stripped and plastered with new skirting board in all bedrooms, hall, landing and lounge/diner. Door taken out and archways put in. Door knocked through from hall into garage, front porch and inside door taken out and replaced with one front door from porchway. Lots of ancilliary work undertaken (new guttering and lintels etc) new sliding doors fitted to main bedroom wardrobe, new stair rail and under stairs fitted with sliding quiet close drawers. Work carried out to very high standard. Finished quickly and efficiently. Very professional and crew worked hard. Excellent job!!”
“Absolutely cannot fault the work we had carried out by Alan and his team. We moved the kitchen and dining room, swapping them over, changed a window to double patio doors and had a full kitchen refit, as well as a downstairs loo created. The standard of work was great, timings were communicated well and all workers left everything as tidy as possible daily. Very happy that we chose Gwilliam Builders.”

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.
