“During the last year I became aware of Michael Bartlett who undertook some some work involving removal and replacement of internal walls for a newly purchased bungalow for my granddaughter and during this period I realised how practical he was and cooperative with suggestions and stable in being there timely when needed. The quality was every thing we expected from an experience builder and his helpers. This encouraged me to engage him for a significantly greater job involving substantial reconstruction on my new home and left me having a quality job completed satisfied and on time.”

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.
