## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Neil and Grant repaired two sections of garden wall that had fallen into disrepair due to age, and installed a small fence to close a gap in between the garage and garden boundary wall. Neil and Grant were great throughout the work, keeping us informed of their progress and any delays due to inclement weather. The project was completed on time and on budget and i would not hesitate to recommend Neil to anyone who needs brickwork. In fact, we have asked him to quote to repair another section of the wall!"

> "A second great job done by Neil and Grant. Always punctual and happy to take the time to talk through the work and the progress made. The result is a really nicely built replacement brick and block shed, addressing the previous shed’s issues with damp and rotting timber."

> "This is the second time I've used Neil and his colleague Grant because they did such a great job of some flood defences last year. This time it was a smaller job, just putting in new drainage entry for my gutter downpipes. Even so the work was done to their usual high standards and they were a pleasure to deal with as usual. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again, or recommend them to friends and family. Very glad to find such fine gentlemen."

## Before you hire a builder
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade — general guidance, not a claim about this business:_
- 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.
- Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
- Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
