Highlights
“Richard carried out a kitchen upgrade for us and did a brilliant job. He was meticulous with his work and overcame a few problems we had with ease resulting in a perfect job. Would thoroughly recommend for his brilliant skills.”
“We had a great experience working with Richard to complete our kitchen renovation with some structural changes. Richard has high standards for his work, which is reflected in the end result (which was lovely!). He has a wide range of skills, meaning he could deal with all the inevitable problems that came up during the works (as they always do). He is professional and communicates well, and always tidied up when he left. Overall, I'd highly recommend Richard!”

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.
