## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Came round quickly after enquiry to give a quote, quote itself was fair and included a full itemised list of the exact work they'd carried out. Work had to be delayed by a day but they rescheduled for the following day. Work carried out to a very high standard, and they took significant steps to clean up after they had finished. Very satisfied with the work performed."
> Source: Jonathan H (5.0, via Checkatrade)

> "I had a leaking shower tray that had caused damage to the kitchen ceiling below and caused some water damage to the joists underneath. I've had a couple of bad experiences with some tradesmen before but Riba Contracting were fantastic, very professional in all aspects I would definitely use them again in the future, they didn't stop working all day and everything was completed to a very good standard."

> "Clear quote and high quality of work"

## 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.
