Highlights
“Jon was great in helping design a solution for my garden office which was leaking. He came up with a few options, talked them through with me and then one agreed got a date in and did the job. Really chuffed with the result and quality of the work. Hopefully no more water coming where it isn’t welcome!”
“Jon did a fantastic job knocking through two walls in my property and fitting a kitchen. He made sure to talk through everything so I knew what to expect every step of the process. The kitchen looks fabulous and every unexpected obstacle that cropped up (which always happens on big projects!) was dealt with and a solution found. It was left tidy every day and I am over the moon with the look of the kitchen. Every trades person he brought on board to complete the project with him were just as polite and lovely as Jon himself. I highly recommend him.”

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.
