Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

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 15 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

AnonymousCheckatrade5.0 rating

Workmen very polite, friendly and exceptionally helpful (did extra by securing roof tiles which was more than their brief!). Worked quietly and quickly and did a fine job. In short will use again if ever need scaffolding and would personally recommend if ever asked.

Detailed reviews

Anonymous

Despite the fact that noisy working hours restricted on a Sunday, a team of three turned up and started working at 7:30 a.M. With a loud radio playing. At 8:15 I asked them if they thought it was acceptable given the fact that I had just spent 2 hours trying to get a baby to sleep and they had woken them and my 3 year old up 10 minutes after I got them to sleep. They're excuse was that they had bills to pay and they liked listening to music while they work. They did eventually turn the music off but then made snarky comments about how they'd have to use their voice and sing instead

Worth checking yourself
Their public rating is on the low side. Read the most recent reviews yourself before deciding.
Only a few public reviews are shown. Ask for recent references you can contact.
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.

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 register
Never 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.
