> "We can not praise Phil and his team highly enough. Totally reliable, friendly, trustworthy and tidy. Nothing was too much trouble, no problem too difficult to solve and everything was done to the highest standards and in budget. Phil is an excellent craftsman with a creative eye for detail and understanding of working on an old property such as ours. Highly recommended."

> "My shed leaked filling my wellingtons with water. PJL quoted for a rebuild. Rubbish went in a skip. The resulting building was wired up, insulated and looks as if it is part of the house. The project was very competently managed. We are extremely satisfied with the result."

> "Phil and Leo did a really excellent job, from the initial contact through to completion. They beat competitors by immedialtey convincing us of their interest in preserving what could be preserved of our (1913) windows and door, changing only what was needed to improve insulation and make it secure. They appeared to be and were, trustworthy They had made and painted windows in the workshop and everything fitted and all went smoothly. Painting and finish was excellent There were some unexpected bits which they just got in with, no hassle. The result is exactly what we wanted"

## 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.
