How to Choose the Right Service in East Lothian

Before hiring it’s wise to consider:

  • Read client reviews – See how previous clients rated their reliability, workmanship, communication and clean-up and go beyond checking the reviews on a single website too. Check around the internet as a whole for past reviews on the service providers you are considering.
     
  • Check credentials – While not all trades legally require certification, look for experience, insurance, references, and relevant trade body memberships. Remember the onus is still on the homeowner to check credentials before hiring.
     
  • Compare multiple written quotes – Get at least three quotes to compare cost, scope (labour, materials, trades included), timeframe and payment terms.
     
  • Inspect the quote’s detail – What’s included/excluded: materials, prep work, waste removal, access, scaffolding, finishes?
     
  • Ask about sub-trades & coordination – For larger jobs, you may need a provider who can manage or coordinate other services too (electricians, plumbers, plasterers).
     
  • Check for hidden costs – Access difficulties, structural surprises, late finishes, hidden expenses may add up.
     
  • Beware very low quotes – If a quote is far below averages, ensure you understand what’s being omitted (quality, materials, finishing, warranty).
     
  • Align the skills with job type – A general handyman is fine for small tasks; larger projects often require specialists or a builder/trades-contractor.
     
  • Check timelines & clean-up – Good service providers minimise disruption, leave the site tidy and finish on budget/time.
