I mostly dealt with Marc from M & K Carpentry & Building Services who was very good and helpful in carrying out the work of removing my old bathroom and fitting a new bathroom which included removing the old bath completely for a larger shower to be fitted. The toilet was moved to a new location and new tiling and flooring completed a nice job that I am happy with :)
Mark and his team did a superb job on our kitchen then we asked him to do our hallway and cloakroom. They did new flooring and replaced wc and sink in cloakroom. As with the kitchen they did a great job. They were professional, work was done on time and on seeing the finished job a friend has now had her kitchen fitted. Highly recommend this company.

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.
