I recently had my garage converted by Roy from RussellBuild, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Roy managed everything himself, delivering high-quality work with a friendly and professional attitude. He stayed on top of building regulations and handled all the paperwork, which gave me real peace of mind. We also agreed on a flexible payment plan that suited us both, making the whole process stress-free. The finished space looks fantastic, and it’s clear Roy takes great pride in his work. I’d highly recommend RussellBuild and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again!

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.

Detailed reviews
I had Roy in to build a beauty cabin in the garden, this included footings, ground works, building the cabin from blocks, with flat roof and roof window. This included levelling floors, plastering and skirting boards. All work carried out to high standard and I love it. Roy was, on time, tidy and reliable. Thanks Roy.
Russelbuild were a friendly company to deal with that kept me well informed with progress and any issues that needed to be addressed. Kept everything as tidy as possible and worked well to their timescales. Would recommend.

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.
