MyBuilder

Great job at a really good price would certainly use the site again to find a builder/workman, only had a area concreted for a shed base but they were really conscientious and professional

I've used it several times and have usually found the tradesmen reliable apart for one time when I had an issue with the work done and was uable to contact the guy..

I had a disaster with a solid concrete base from a firm used, the base was not fit for use. I advertised on this site and tradesmen came out to quote. My husband liked this builder and during the other quotes he came back and bullied my husband into taking him on to correct the work. He had 1500 of us, he brought a firm that properly pumped wet cement over the shoddy base. 900 of that was for them the
Rest for him for proper planking around the side. He came with 2 prices of Plank? 600 for that? After the work was done he conned my husband into doing decking over the solid base? This was to hold a summerhouse. I was at work and I was questioning this, this cost 1500, I never received one receipt only stupid emails as an invoice. He then took another 845 to make the decking bigger! 120 for a useless armoured cable that he just plonked under the crap grass sods he had purchased. Another 220 for a skip that never showed and has never paid for the por taloo still in my front garden?

I've just started using my builder as tradesmen and the system as far as I can see it is flawed, it works on the basis of shortlisting the engineers (in my case) to use an example 5 engineers bid for a job to install a boiler, If you're shortlisted you are charged £20-00 + vat but? This is the catch, the customer in this instance didn't know how the system worked and just shortlists everyone even though 4 of those engineers won't get the job and they will all be charged the figure mentioned above.

Now to examine the definition of a shortlist, how can the same amount of people shortlisted be the same as the amount of people who have applied for the job? Doesn't that contradict the term shortlisted as it means less than the original, but you give the client opportunity to select everyone, when in reality the client should only be given the chance to choose a percentage of applicants.

If you went for a job interview and you were shortlisted it doesn't mean the other 100 applicants got through? Does it!

At the moment you're are running an unbalanced system and you're getting away with it, which is why I personally will take this up with trading standards.

Only got one person from this site but was happy with the quote and quality of work so all good for me on this occasion I lost the job clearly so he knew what I wanted and he had the necessary skills

Two very conscientious joiners did a wonderful job in assembling our summer house. Thorough and meticulous in their work they completed the job in a day.

Great job done on the next day of contact for a 90 yr lady. Caring and kept distancing all the time he was there. Lady was very happy with both job and kindness given thankyou

Dealing with Suad Kadria of SS Building Services on the repointing of my house has been a good experience. Suad is efficient and friendly and I certainly look forward to working with him again in the future.

Very professional would use this site again. My builder supply great options for all to use and decide who you want to use our tradesmen were fantastic

We were able to contact a stonemason relatively easily using my builder.
The job was completed on time and in a satisfactory manner. Thank you my builder.

Excellent service I have been getting various Workmen advertised on My Builder website for various work ifor my properties. Most of the workmen are good and professionals.

THESE GUYS FITTED MY CARPET AND LAMINATE AND DONE A FANTASTIC JOB. VERY WELL PRICED, SO I WOULD 100 % RECOMMENDED THESE TO ANYONE. AND THEY WILL BE BACK TO FUNISH THE REST OF MY FLAT WHEN DECORATED

The site is easy to use. Once posted I received responses to my ad very quickly. Most importantly I had a quality tradesman do my job. Would definitely recommend My Builder

This site is excellent its easy to use and very informative. You get peace of mind by reading actual customer reviews and obtaining quotes for work is easy and more comfortable.

Posted an urgent job after being let down by a Facebook company. Had a reply within minutes and several more within the hour. Job was completely same day, very very happy.

Once I had placed my problem on My Builder with in 10 minutes I had 5 phone calls arranging appointments to view the problem however one builder Ben came around the very same day and after discussing what it entailed and the cost the was done

I got in touch with someone through MyBuilder who had no intention of appointing my services. When I touched base with her soon after being shortlisted (next working day) I was told that her husband had already appointed someone the night before (appointed, not just shortlisted). I had no opportunity to even quote for the project or meet with the clients but had to pay a £20 shortlist fee. MyBuilder said in their terms and conditions that you can dispute a shortlist fee but the customer must have messaged you through MyBuilder at the same time they shortlisted you to qualify. I had asked the lady to message me so that I could get my money back for the shortlist fee, which she did. But MyBuilder said she had to have sent the message WITHIN 10 MINUTES of being shortlisted for a refund. Nothing about that 10 minute deadline in their terms and conditions. They argued with me continuously so much that it must have cost them more to argue it out than it would have done just to refund the money. I am not happy about their customer service and I never did get my money back.

Ive used My Builder to find tradesmen for quite a few jobs over the years. Is very easy to use, the tradesmen have all been well recommended, polite and all done a good job.

I've used My Builder several times now and have always been pleased with the tradesman/craftsman I have used. This website is always my first port of call if I need work to be done.

Have used three times all have been reliable and good in their trade.
Bricklayer hard working even in bad weather.
Joiner reliable.
Plumber yet to start work but seems reliable

I have used MyBuilder several times for decorating, plastering, French doors, new bathroom, furniture assembly. All workers are professional, reliable and great prices.
