“Phil did a wonderful job sorting out the banister for our staircase which previously was very low. He expertly managed to figure out how best to get it done and put it together really well. We were very impressed and would use him again for future work or recommend him to other people.”

Highlights
“In summary Phil was great to work with. We were very specific with design, colour, measurements and how the cabinets could be blended into the room. Phil worked with us to ensure we had the best design and would provide a range of options to talk through. He kept us up to speed with progress on the job and found his communication was always clear and timely. When we wanted to add lighting he provided a great solution and the cabinets are now a fantastic feature of the room. We couldn’t be happier with the final result. Phil is one of the best tradespeople we have worked with.”
“Phil was fantastic - completed in two visits (as glass had to be ordered) - kept the house clean throughout the work - very knowledgable. Provided lots of sample work pictures. Phil is very friendly and honest in his approach. The finish is amazing as can be seen in the pictures. Always available to resolve any queries.”

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.
