## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "We had a great experience with Lacho. He was professional, reliable, and did a fantastic job throughout. The quality of his work was excellent, and he kept everything clean and tidy. We’re very happy with the results and would gladly work with him again!"
> Source: Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "I have used Lacho from Petkov Building Services Ltd twice now. The first was a loft and rear extension which took place over 1 year from 2021-22. Lacho was polite and professional - he was honest throughout and he is approachable. His plastering work is particularly of very good quality and I would recommend him highly. Lacho is now doing a loft and rear extension for a second property of mine in Manor Park and am pleased with the progress and works so far."

> "Lacho and his team are very reliable and dedicated to the service they provide. Lacho assisted me with some design changes which were a great addition to my extension, and reassured me throughout their work progress. Alongside, the quality of work was always kept at high standards, as I never had any building work done prior to this extension, they supported me with the choice of materials and kept me up to date with the progress of the extension. I would not hesitate to recommend or hire again."

## 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.
