Highlights
“Reliable and friendly.Martin explained what was involved and the cost clearly. Job done to high standard would thouroughly recommend this family firm. Nice to know there are some firms who are very customer orientated.”
“We used Martin to convert our integral garage into a boot room with shower. We would definitely recommend him to others looking for a builder. Throughout, Martin was very friendly and reliable. We were very pleased with the job that he did and he was on site every day he was needed to ensure that the work was progressing well. He was very tidy and organised, leaving the space clean and free from dirt and debris at the end of each day.”
“Would highly recommend. I hired Martin to build a garage and subsequently hired him again shortly after to build a two storey extension. Throughout Martin was super friendly and reliable and with many years of experience all the complexities on the build were properly handled. He's got a great network of contractors and everyone that was engaged on my build did an excellent job and were entirely trustworthy. Martin is super attentive and was on site every day he was needed to ensure the work was going to plan. I'd happily recommend anytime.”

Excellent from start to finish. Work was completed promptly, tidily and to a very high quality. Good value for money with no surprises. Martin was easily contactable, responded quickly and positively to any questions. He was regularly on-site overseeing his team.

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.
