Official checkOn the public register
Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 14 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Billy and Will were amazing from start to finish and the finished product is even better than I had imagined. Billy came out to measure and confirm the space before the work began and worked around all of my requests, even buying the exact custom shade of paint for the shelving so it would match the rest of the room. Everything was done with the utmost care and professionalism and with a level of perfection that is amazing, overcoming every little hiccup that came along and not leaving until they were happy. Billy and Will were also so friendly and I would recommend them for any job.
Excellent service. Did exactly what I asked for. Reliable. Top quality product.
work was done in a timely manor to a really good standard asked all the way through exactly how I wanted it and made sure it was to my vision..defiantly be getting them to come again

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.
