I found an excellent Carpet Fitter on My Builder.com. He worked under difficult circumstances with the Removal men bringing in the furniture at the same time, but he listened to what I wanted and completed the sitting room first, then the main bedroom, 2nd bedroom and lastly the hallway. He did an excellent job and I can highly recommend My Builder.com to find the person you need for your job.
Having just moved to the area, I didn't know where to start with finding tradies to do all different jobs round the house. Had nobody to ask for recommendations.
Using My builder.com meant I could see reviews from previous customers, and every job I posted got many replies. I could choose the more local tradies to give an estimate, feeling more confident because any poor quality work would have been flagged up in the previous customer reviews.
I've used the site for several different jobs, and I'm very happy.
I have used my builder a few times to find different services, the first time was for a damp course, which in the end i did not need, but for the chap that came out to quote, i may have ended up paying for it when i did not need it, he said i only needed pointing done. Second time was for someone to cap gas fire, he was brilliant, then last week i was looking for a plasterer, but none were available on this site, so used a different service that also looks for genuine tradesmen.
Just post your job and short list traders after reading reviews and going looking on there web site if they have one, i did not short list anyone who had not got one, just personal preference and wait to be contacted agree a time to look and quote for your job then pick one trader to do the work you don't have too contact the others who you asked to quote my builder will do that for you. I have used the site before and will use again without doubt if a professional needs to hired. I have also told work colleagues about my builder already i posted a job for a bathroom refit and submitted my feedback for the trader i hired who i have nothing but praise for.so to sum up, all i can say is its a very easy site to use is my builder
Using My Builder was the right thing to do, we found Global tree and landscaping through them, Nick and his team did an excellent job, just as we wanted and more than helpful.
Bob & Diane.
Was easy to search the site and get quotes from a few builders. Found a great one and the work has been completed.
Haitham was lovely to meet, courteous and effective. He did the job quickly and without fuss. When I next use an electrician I will turn to him first.
Totally delighted with the work done by JGM Landscapes. Replied to request to quote very quickly. Totally transformed my garden and have no hesitation recommending and would use for other work

Trying to manage refurbishing a rental property in Lincoln while in Sydney, I advertised for a decorating job and a rubbish clearance job. I received quick responses, got quotes, and got the jobs done at prices that suited. The guys did the jobs well and kept me informed, including sending photos. So, all good and will use again.
1st time user. Quick replies to advert and found the best people for the job. Arrived at stated time and quickly sorted the problem, for the agreed price. Would have them again also would recommend My Builder if you're looking for good trades people at a competitive price.

Used JDH Roofing for some general, the guys were brilliant and did a great job. Other people who I did not proceed with, we're polite and accepting. Do not touch TAFA Property, he got pretty abusive when I didn't proceed with his quote so had to report him to My Builder. A tender from AG Parker Ltd was not accepted and he called me unprofessional!
Easy to use and best way to find a tradesman for anything! I never use anyone else especially when you don't have any contacts in any trade. Even if I had I would still trust this site more than personal recommendation.
They did an excellent job of making our garage look top-notch (replacing the fascias / guttering / window / door) in uPVC.
As a company, their customer service was just excellent and the finished product has put a smile on our faces.
The price is what Ste says it will be (all properly written and drawn up) and no sudden extras and they turn up when they say they will turn up and get stuck in.
You can't go wrong if you use them and will be pleased.

No fuss, job completed as promised with minimum disruption. Ticked all the boxes, very professional.
I recently had Aimdex tiling quote & take £350 for fitting tiling to my kitchen floor. We got Tony all bits needed. Tony and Nick came round and finally started working at after 6 cups of coffee each which I noted they made themselves without asking me if it was alright. They finished the job and quickly told my mother to pass the money over and she can't walk on the tiles so stay put and they will see themselves out. They have left tiles uneven, cracked some and left so much wastage from wrong cuts. After 27 calls, several unanswered emails and texts, Tony finally said he would be round by 8.30am. 3 hours later I called his mobile and he said he slept in late sorry he wpuld be over shortly. Another 2 hours have passed and he lives 20mins away. He has not attempted to come and fix the issues, offer a refund and I am now a dissapointed and saddened customer! I do not want him doing this to anyone else!
Great place to post a job you need doing. I posted a gardening job and it was finished to my great satisfaction
I have been using mybuilder site for almost 2 years now for any house related work. Have used plumber, painter, electritian and others. The site is simply to use and have qualified skilled people registered. Also, the customer service at mybuilder is very helpful too. Will definitely recommend mybuilder to all.
I found a builder on the my builder site very quickly ( had 4 builders show interest in just a couple of days)
The one we decided to proceed with seems to be very friendly and appears to know what he is doing
Gave MyBuilder a couple of jobs and received several responses. Hired a company for each job and the work was completed to an excellent standard.
Answer: From what I gather they just check. Insurances! No qualifications or registration checks at all!
Answer: Hi Mitsy, the service is completely free for homeowners.
Answer: Well you can always try, in anyway they would remove your reviews as they did mine. Depend which trader though! Some of them seems to be more protected than others...
