Very satisfied with the workmanship and the finished job. Also very impressed with being introduced to workmen before they commenced and the supervision given by the Contract Manager

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
All work completed as agreed and to a high standard. Reliable when visiting to quote and complete the work. No problems and I would definitely use them again.
At the end of last year I decided to extend my kitchen so I could have bi fold doors and a island to create more space and to have extra storage and cupboards. Ryan at Thompsons came out to look at the plans and area we had and gave me a quote within a week. We had to stop half way through due to covid19 but thompsons made sure my kitchen was able to be used and as tidy as possible until the work could carry on. I couldn't be happier with how my kitchen now looks and id highly recommend using S Thompson builders if you're looking to have your kitchen fitted or for an extension.

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.
