I wanted a unique looking kitchen which was achieved. James was calm and courteous throughout the project. Professional with his timing and workmanship, ensuring the environment was always left clean. I have also used him for loft work, outside decking and general renovations to achieve completing my bungalow. I would recommend him to others with no hesitation.

Detailed reviews
After being let down by a company, I met with Tom and James from Oaktree and they immediately made me at ease. Unfazed by the level of work that needed to be done within a tight schedule, the Oaktree team got underway and worked around the clock to get the job done on time. All aspects of work was completed to a very high standard. I cannot thank Tom, James and the Oaktree team for all they have done and I will have no hesitation in using them again for any future works.
The level of work and professionalism from Tom, James and the Oaktree team was brilliant. The work has been completed to an exceptionally high standard and our new kitchen is fantastic and everything we wanted!! Tom and James were a pleasure and a joy to deal with and were so thoughtful with timings of their works thinking of my family and our young children. I would have no hesitation in recommending Oaktree. Thank you so much!

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.
