“Josh initially built us a bespoke garden room. He offered excellent advice on all elements of the build. Him and his team were hard working and efficient and always left the site tidy. We were absolutely delighted with the final result. Josh was so excellent he also did additional work on our garden and roof, all to a top standard. Josh is a great communicator and incredibly reliable and I’d recommend him in a heartbeat.”

Official checkOn the public register
Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 6 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Highlights
“Josh and his team came to replace the wall in 2 bedrooms of the flat we rent out with insulated plasterboard to increase the EPC rating. They did a quality job, quickly and with good communication. They finished it beautifully with coving, skirting board and a uPVC window board. Josh makes things easy and you know you're going to get a good result. I would recommend working with him.”
“Josh and his team were very professional punctual and tidy. The finish to are kitchen bathroom and toilet is perfect. WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”

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.
