## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "I would not recommend this company. Have hired these guys for a full kitchen refurbishment. Have been given an extortionate cost initially, only to for the price to be slashed by 40% when pushing back if I paid cash. This was a big mistake as they ended up asking for additional money for various things (i.E an additional £300 for plumbing work, an additional £300 for variation for the ceiling), trying to bargain about additional money for fitting in the wood worktop.

## 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.
