A deposit over about a quarter of the job is unusual. Never pay one by bank transfer to a new account without a written contract. What to check before you pay

Dave came out and did the two wardrobes, the three shelves in the lounge and fixed the kitchen door all in one visit like he said he would. Everything is spot on, shelves are dead level and the door closes properly now for the first time in months. He cleaned up after himself too, you wouldn't know he'd been. Price matched what we talked about with no surprises. Would definitely have him back for anything else that needs doing.

Thanks so much for the kind words, Omar - really glad the shelves and door are sorted and everything's working properly for you. Great job to work on, give me a shout if anything else needs doing around the house.
