Highlights
“Marc was amazing. We had a whole new kitchen which involved knocking a wall down and a brand new layout. Marc did everything including plumbing and electrics and his workmanship was second to none. Nothing was too much trouble and he took his time to get everything perfect. We have already recommended him to two friends and family members and we intend to have him back for future projects. We cannot recommend him highly enough.”
“Marc did an amazing knock-through to open my kitchen and dining room up. He helped plan and design the new kitchen and built it beautifully! He has since made me a matching cabinet- which is equally lovely! Top nice and genuine guy! Hoping he’s coming back soon to make me a new back gate!”

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.
