I have used Master Builders twice now, once for internal remodelling work (split bedrooms, add ensuite, refloor lounge and electrical work) and recently for a new fence in the back garden. Both times the work has been impeccable. The engagement and planning, providing options and guidance on what's right for our property, was excellent. Jess and the wider team are very approachable and friendly. The team that do the work are professional and prompt. They are a great bunch and very thoughtful, ensuring minimal interruption to us while still delivering to the agreed time.
Master Designs were so professional from start to finish, Jess is an amazing project manager and really knows her stuff. Kept us up to date with daily check ins and gave us some design info. Would not hesitate to use again. So happy with the end result!
I contacted this company on the recommendation of a local neighbour. We needed safety vinyl flooring that's not readily available from most domestic flooring companies. Their customer service is second to non. Courteous, very efficient and fitted the job into our very restricted closing times. The fitter arrived on time, did a first class job and left the site in a clean and tidy state ready for us to open the branch again.

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.
