Highlights
"Ian was excellent. He undertook the work very quickly, kept the area tidy and did various other jobs along the way that might otherwise have caused a delay. We have already asked him to quote for some other work we need doing and wouldn't hesitate to recommend his services."
"The work was carried out in a professional and efficient manner often in very difficult weather conditions and the sight was left clean and tidy"
"We chose to go with LBC again after successfully using them 2 years ago. The work did take longer than anticipated due to various reasons, but we are happy with the outcome of the work in the end. We were kept updated with photos and were able to inspect the work by being taken up the scaffolding."

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.
