“I’m really pleased with the work done on my stairs. He replaced the stair railing and completely got rid of all the creaks in both the stairs and banister they now feel solid and secure. I also had our centre island moved and adapted to fit under the stairs. Very professional, clearly knowledgeable and took the time to explain what he was doing. He was also genuinely lovely to chat to which made the whole experience even better. The workmanship is excellent and everything was left clean and tidy. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.”

Highlights
“I have used wood work and media, a few times, latest job was 2 out door gates, made to a very high standard also installed a hand rail due to mobility issues, sorted out a media wall, layed flooring, updated my stair banister, as it was a 1960s one which was not safe, and decorated lounge, hall and landing. Everything was up to a very high standard and within time frames given by Malcolm.”
“I've used Malcolm previously for my built in wardrobes so I had no hesitation in asking him to build my media wall in my Living Room. We couldn't be more happy with the wall and shelves that he has built along with fitting the electric fire. He was punctual every day, every day we would get a summary of what was done and what needed to be done. We would also get advice where needed but he would make sure its what we wanted.First class job already lined him up for more work next year. Thanks Mal”

Worth checking yourself
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.

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.
