## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "This one s the second time Ian has carried out plastering work for me. The latest work involved Ian skimming approximately 25 sqm of new stud wall. Once again I was very very happy with Ian's work. I would certainly recommend Ian to others."
> Source: Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "Ian Deacon has performed numerous tasks for us, including the construction of a dormer window, roofing work, insulation, guttering and drainage, bricklaying, flooring and decorating. He has a very wide range of skills, considerable experience and is very good at devising solutions to any problem that is encountered. He always clears up thoroughly and is consistently pleasant to work with, flexible and accommodating."

> "Ian and Bob were hardworking, professional and courteous. They kept to the original quote as far as possible apart from a couple of unexpected issues which they dealt with promptly and kept me informed. The quality of the work which included removing internal walls and relocating the stairs, was excellent from all the team as confirmed by a building specialist friend of mine. They also dealt efficiently with some small issues on my snagging list. Overall, I have been delighted with the makeover to my property and I would not hesitate to recommend Ian's firm"

## 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.
