## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Nik did a fantastic job renovating my flat in central London. He was super helpful, always aiming for high standards and finding solutions. The team handled everything – rewiring, kitchen, plumbing, flooring, etc. I appreciated that I didn’t have to explain every little detail – they just got things right. His colleagues were respectful, punctual, and kept the site clean every day. I had no issues with neighbours during the six weeks of work. Communication was excellent, with frequent updates on WhatsApp. Nik is very accountable and transparent. I highly recommend them for any renovation work!"

> "I employed Nik and Jel Services Ltd to do a complete refurbishment, loft conversion, and extension of my cottage. They did everything from installing a new damp proof membrane in the floor, through to raising the ground floor ceiling, rewiring and installing central heating throughout, including underfloor, as well as all the carpentry work, using their skills to re-use reclaimed timber out of the cottage where possible. This was the second time I have used their services. Nik and his staff have always been approachable, polite and punctual, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them."

## 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.
