“Wow - what an amazing job... Rhys Child Carpentry and Build came up with a fantastic design that seamlessly integrated the summer house our house. The land was an odd shape so required a fully custom build. Rhys and his team did an absolutely amazing job - the finished result is truly awesome and has completely transformed the space. The quality of finish is top notch and his attention to detail is second to none. You can tell he’s a highly skilled craftsman and is passionate about his work. He’s extremely hard working, very professional and a genuinely nice guy. I’d highly recommend”

Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

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 5 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Highlights
“I would highly recommend Rhys Child Construction and Build to anyone. He’s very knowledgable, professional, extremely hard working, reliable and has excellent attention to detail. He’s also very clean and tidy, far more so than any other tradesperson I’ve used! But mostly importantly for us, he’s a genuinely nice guy and a pleasure to work with. We were so impressed with his work that we have also commissioned him to build a summer house and will be using him for all our Carpentry and Build requirements from now on.”
Detailed reviews
Awful Builder - did not complete the job. Incapable of following drawings from Archtect and Structual Engineer. Building Inspector refuses to sign off the project. Completely incompetent

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.
