Highlights
“Ollie hung 14 solid oak doors including two for new openings that required door stops and one with a tricky threshold that needed work to make it blend in properly. He also made 2 pairs of bespoke cabinet doors in oak for a new media wall. Throughout the job, Ollie was hard-working, tidy and professional. He has excellent attention to detail and goes the extra mile to make everything perfect. He was the best worker we've had on-site during our recent small renovations and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending him.”
“I cannot recommend Ollie highly enough, his workmanship is excellent, he is reliable, professional and very tidy! He has been instrumental in transforming my house, I am delighted with every job he has done.”

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.
