  • Mr Fairygirl doesn’t sound right at all.
  • Thank you everybody! Will definitely try the recommended sites, don’t seem to be getting anywhere with the checkatrade. 
    Yes, three quotes to compare would be great - but right now it’s about getting at least one...
    Quite surprised that it is so difficult - they keep talking about all the job losses etc., but obviously some professions are just always in demand. 
    Thanks again 😊👍

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

    This was my experience every time I tried to use similar sites or contact someone via email. I don't like using phone and I guess email should be fine for tradesmen (they can respond in the evening/morning rather than taking a phone call while they are working) but no. It feels like they don't know how to use it.
