A general guide to UK rates for this trade — not a quote from any business on this page, and not based on jobs booked through Domifyr. Always get a written quote before work starts.
One fixed scale across every page on Domifyr: full width is 250 reviews. Half of all UK trades hold exactly 5.0, so the average tells you almost nothing — the volume behind it tells you most of what there is.
There is no official register for builders in the UK — anyone may use the title. Check the company at Companies House and ask to see their insurance before work starts. We have not done either.

About this guide
Compiled from held data
This guide is assembled by Domifyr from the data we hold: Google ratings and review counts (collected by Google, not by us), UK statutory register requirements, and typical price ranges for the area. No individual author is credited because no individual wrote it — and we would rather tell you that than invent someone.
