## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Mitch and his team carried out an integral garage conversion for us. We went with South Downs based on a recommendation and we were not disappointed. From the start his experience, and also familiarity with the houses on our estate, gave us real confidence. A couple of issues cropped up and Mitch was able to quickly provide a solution on each occasion . We would certainly use South Downs again."

> "Really great working with Mitch. A nice person to work with, very experienced and well connected with a range of subcontractors to carry out other parts of the project. He has a lot of builders working for him which meant the work could be done quickly and they can handle larger projects easily with the manpower capabilities. The job was done to a high standard, and the build control inspector very happy to sign it all off. Will be going straight to Mitch in future for any further building needs!"

## 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.
