Highlights
“John did a great job in repairing the inbound mains water pipe and restored our water supply quickly”
“I’m project managing a 75m2 extension, and of course groundworks are a key first step. I spent time searching for a contractor, and in the end John was a great find. John took on all the groundwork’s coordinating delivery up to DPC. John has a great work ethic and managed to deliver the groundwork’s despite some awful weather. The project is ready for the next phase, and Johns part was delivered on time and on budget. I have some more groundwork’s in the summer and I won’t hesitate to use John again.”

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.

Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
