“I'm very pleased! Elvis and his team performed three house maintenance projects - repaired leaking roof over garage, reconfigured gutter to drain correctly, and replaced large section of flashing on edge of roof. Quote was clear and there were no additional charges. Work was carried out well and efficiently, scaffolding went up when needed and came down when finished. Thanks Elvis!”

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.
