Highlights
“We would recommend Tom 100%. He responds to calls / emails / questions, is organised (turns up when he says he will!), tidy and polite- everything you want from a tradesperson in your home. Tom put a new roof on our log cabin, replaced some fence and added a new garden gate, and we are extremely happy with the work he has done. We will be recommending Tom to friends and family and asking him back for more work in the future. Thank you Tom!”
“From beginning to end I received the best possible service, from the initial quote, finding out exactly what was required, perfect timekeeping, the whole process was faultless. The standard of work was 💯, I couldn’t possibly be happier”

Worth checking yourself

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.
