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

Highlights
“Rycroft Kitchens were excellent in fitting our new office kitchen. The job was completed on time, professionally executed, and finished to a very high standard. They even built us a bespoke cupboard which turned out brilliantly. Very accomplished craftsmen with a great eye for detail. Five stars – highly recommended.”
“The work carried out by Doug at Rycroft Kitchens exceeded my expectations by far. The job was a very challenging one as the space was so limited and had sloping ceilings. His standard of workmanship was incredible and you could tell that he was a perfectionist. He was super reliable and the price was a very fair price considering the amount of work involved. He undertook complex plumbing jobs and recommended an electrician who was also excellent. They worked as a team so well.”
“Doug has a very approachable positive manner. His work and attention to detail is second to none, nothing was too much trouble. The kitchen was a mix of refurbishing an existing run of units with new doors / drawer fronts etc. together with fitting new Howdens units and appliances and modifying new units to construct a bespoke dresser type feature. Along with fully re-decorating and laying luxury rigid vinyl flooring. I would highly recommend Doug (Rycroft Kitchens) and look forward to using him again in the future.”

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.
