“We engaged Hennessey Services initially to do some boarding work in our loft and some plastering and painting. This scope of work expanded significantly, partly as our ideas developed but mainly because during the work problems came to light, perhaps not surprisingly given the age of our Victorian house. The roof needed tiling and felting, and then structural roof issues came to light as well. The poor quality of some of our ceilings meant that they had to be plasterboarded rather than just painted. The team are very flexible and were able to cope with all of this additional work without any”

Highlights
“In preparation for an extension and new garden, these guys demolished around 60sq metre of external storage space and removed a large concrete base. Extremely clean and efficient as well as respectful - I would absolutely recommend.”
“After an initial miscommunication from both sides, they were quick to re-schedule the work. Arrived promptly on the day and the demolition was all completed as expected. Would be happy to use again for future projects - thank you.”

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.
