## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Fantastic experience with TD Everything, great communication, very professional, quick, and bang on end result. Couldn't have asked for more, will def use again! They painted 3 bedrooms in our house, including ceiling, door frames and skirting boards, and replaced damaged / missing parts of skirting. Great job guys."

> "We had Martin and his team from T D Everything build us a log cabin in our garden, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. From start to finish, communication was excellent, and every stage of the build was done with care and attention to detail. They handled everything — from preparing the ground to the final finishing touches — and the workmanship is top notch. The cabin looks fantastic and feels solid and well-built. The team was punctual, tidy, and respectful of our space, and Martin made sure we were happy with each step before moving on. Highly recommend T D Everything for anyone"

## Before you hire a builder
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- Never 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.
- Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
- Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work, and that they are current.
