They spearheaded the large project of our ground floor extension and garage conversion, doing so with exceptional care and craftsmanship. The team consistently went the extra mile to ensure both our satisfaction and top-quality work, whilst keeping us well-informed and operating very transparently. A guy that clearly cares immensely about his craft, Craig made the whole process smooth and stress-free. To top it off, the whole team is lovely. We couldn’t recommend him more highly."

## 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.
