Josh at Torbay Groundworks did a fabulous job for us this year laying our beautiful ceramic tile patio and steps. It was a big, and heavy, piece of work but we are over the moon with the results. We have asked Josh to do many other things since to complete the refurbishment of our home. The stunning beech fence in our front garden that he fitted is admired by all our neighbours! Josh and the team are always polite and attentive, carrying out work efficiently and in a tidy manner. The Groundworks team also took up, cleaned and relaid oue block driveway.

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.
