“I misplaced the keys to my flat a few days ago, thinking I had lost them I got in touch with Salisbury Locksmiths and they put me in touch with Leigh of Leigh's Locks. Leigh arrived within the hour and took minutes to replace the locks. He gave me 2 lots of 5 front and back keys and charged a very reasonable price for his services. Thankyou Leigh, I will tell my neighbours about you!”

“I would give no stars if I could because I have raised a complaint with Checkatrade regarding a current trading member where I have produced consistent facts and images to back up my complaint. However, the trader, conversely, has made aspersions about my behaviour with no evidence to back this up AND without any prior notice to me, Checkatrade has published these false facts! Added to this, Checkatrade is under the assumption that their name will make the trader fall into line with the ADR route if the arbitrator accepts my evidence but, of course, the trader can simply go to another builder's website when this happens. I would argue both Checkatrade and the trader, I am in dispute with, have a false sense of reality. Also, why has the trader not be instructed to produce evidence? Mike Fairman, CEO, is aware of this complaint. But, what does it say about his leadership and demanding the facts and thus impartiality before publishing? Q) Is he fit to be a CEO of any organisation? Answer: No. E. LYNCH SE23”

“I was surprised to find that the mobile phone number provided to contact your trade person was a premium mobile number. This is clearly a way of secretly charging customers for your 'free' service. Not acceptable.”

“Terrible Service!!!. They doubled price for the year, My partner kindly declined by email, after speaking to 3 different people, who really had no interest once he told them he wished to cancel. They even refused to send him an itemised quote. They are now denying receiving the email and are threatening court action. Avoid this company like the plague!!!!!!!!!!”

“Neighbours said what a good firm solid stone paving was. Got them to do some block work and have been very pleased with the finished work Would recommend them to anybody and have no qualms to use them again. The team who did our paving where polite and cleaned the site up and left no mess anywhere.”

“They are the worst company out there for advertising with. Managers know nothing about trades and accept bad reviews that are false and favour the false accusers instead of their trades who pay the money I have asked them to remove my details and will be passing on the info to others so that they learn to trust their trades instead of people who are out to ruin people for fun Never use them again and I recommend the same to anyone else”
