We often get people asking about choosing a builder and using websites like myBuilder and Checkatrade etc. etc.

I stumbled across this news story that the regulars might find interesting.

    Seems like he was capable of piecemeal fixing of roof tiles and cleaning/repairing guttering, according to his reviews.

    No one else on the reviews I read had a full roof replacement so it’s interesting that someone would pick him to do it. I’m also surprised that people used him after one review absolutely slated a ‘larger’ fascia/guttering job and gave a good amount of detail about what was wrong with it.

    That ‘work’ is so shocking, I’m sure it would have been better before. It wouldn't have worked for one day.
