“The company itself was pretty reliable but, for various reasons, it took some months to actually set a date for the work mainly due to delays in turning around quotes and building regulations. Unfortunately, issues with the brickwork sub-contractors and wet and freezing weather also led to delays. However, the work was finally completed on time and to our complete satisfaction. Jon was very hands on and conscientious.”

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

Highlights
“Highly recommended! Did a fantastic job and were so helpful, with excellent communication throughout. We’re delighted with the end result, and also how reliable they were, arriving punctually and working hard to get the job done. The quality of their work demonstrates their experience and expertise, plus they took the time to explain things and advise when needed, guiding us through decisions when we were out of our depth! The team were nice people to have around, friendly and cheerful and it felt like they really cared about our home, taking the trouble to achieve everything we hoped for.”
“I was kept fully informed during the whole process, we had one or two glitches (neither party to blame) that we addressed and overcame. The whole project came in on (amended) budget, where additional work was required or the scope changed these were fully discussed and an agreement made before continuing. The builders were courteous and friendly. All in all a good experience, I would certainly use Stone Cross Construction again.”

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.
