## About
Hi. Thanks for visiting my page on my builder.I've been working with wooden sash windows for the last 12 years now doing all rotten wood replacements, sanding repairs and repainting. Replacing cords and rebalancing, replacing the beads or broken glass, fitting new locks and security restrictors, replacing double glazed units, front door repainting, masonry repairs and repainting. I do it all from inside the house or off the ladder, i do not need any scaffold. I do gutter clearing, repairs, slate roof repairs

## 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.
