How do I choose a trustworthy builder?

Compare the public evidence on each profile — how many independent reviews they have and across how many named platforms, the rating and how recent it is, any verified credentials, and the company record. A builder backed by several named sources is harder to fake than one with a single listing.

Does MyTrustedTraders rank or recommend builders for payment?

No. There are no ads and no paid placement. Builders are ranked only by the strength of independent public evidence — no one can pay to rank higher, add a badge, or change their reviews.

Where do the reviews come from?

They're imported from named public review platforms and always shown with the source named — they aren't reviews written on MyTrustedTraders. We cross-check the same business across sources rather than creating new reviews.

What should I check before hiring a builder?

Confirm credentials and insurance directly with the builder, get a written quote, and run the Cowboy Checker on the business first. MyTrustedTraders helps you shortlist on the evidence — it doesn't replace your own checks before you hire.
