Highlights
“Very pleased with the work carried out by this company. Arrived on time, very polite, efficient, did exactly as I asked as they built the interior porch. Happy customer and I would highly recommend.”
“We were looking to have a cupboard for coats/shoes fitted in our hallway. I received a few quotes for the job, with Tailored Carpentry & Design being the most competitive by far. Toby was also easy to communicate with, gave clear feedback, and helpful suggestions. I had the job completed by him, which took less than a day. They left the house neat and tidy, and the workmanship is excellent. I would be happy to hire them again for any future projects.”

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.
