## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this trader's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "I can’t rate Waterproof Systems Ltd highly enough. The job the Giles and his team did for me was a lot more complicated than initially thought and required some structural repairs to be completed alongside the damp proofing work originally planned. I was kept well informed throughout the process and the extra repairs were carried out with minimal stress. If you’ve got a damp problem I would highly recommend using Waterproof Systems Ltd."

> "Giles and his team did an excellent job waterproofing my basement. Giles visited the site early into the construction and accessed the state of dampness then advised on the most effective and financially friendly approach. The membrane has been installed for a month now and it no longer smells of damp in the basement!"

> "Highly, highly recommend Giles and his team. Polite, tidy, incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. Really trustworthy and went the extra mile to ensure the work was completed before Christmas. Would not hesitate to use them again!"

## 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.
