Absolute rubbish company. Paid a hefty sum for bathroom installations, tiles shipped from Spain and Italy. The builders I got from their site, did a absolutely appalling job. There has been leaks for the last 1.5 years. The sad path is I no longer have a job, so I cant afford to repair it. The bathroom stinks without being used and honestly, I am very depressed by this. Trader is now conveniently in Poland. Think again if you want to use their platform. Their complaints process is a sham and you will never get due redress. Since you have asked for more information and to prevent you from providing a generic response that would attempt to make my complaint look trivial, here is what your complaint handler provided to me as a response. Hi Alice, Thank you for your time earlier today and, once again, sorry to hear of the issues you have had with Mariusz. Following our conversation, I have tried to call Mariusz but there was no answer. I have sent him an email asking him to make contact with me. I will update you if I hear anything from Mariusz. If I do not hear from Mariusz, I will follow him up one last time in the next couple of days. In the meantime, please can you send me details of any messages you have from Mariusz of him explaining he is bankrupt and now living in Poland, along with any pictures of the work he has done? As discussed, please click this link for more advice on the Small Claims Court. If you do take any legal advice, I would advise that you make them aware that you believe Mariusz to be bankrupt. For completion, please see below the contact details we have for Mariusz. As I mention above, I will keep you updated. Please let me know if you have any questions. Kind regards, Jacob MyBuilder Customer Service ref:_00D4JCzX0._5004L1K4GO:ref Well Jacob and the general public, mybuilder plus did not come into effect until post 2020, which means that as I had used your site as an intermediary between myself and the trader, this product is not relevant to my situation.Your response shows the dicey and offhanded way you handle complaints. You have not taken responsibility for this, even slightly in any way. Lest you forget, you did inform me in your email on 13th November 2020 that you would update me on blocking Mariusz; account. I can bet you didn't until further complaints were made by other customer's to this effect. Your company have been fraught with terrible reviews of your customer's terrible experiences with tradesmen, but again no responsibility.This review has detailed to communicate my dissatisfaction with your services, whatever that is. For a company that acts as an intermediary for tradesmen that stand to collect thousands of pounds, you should do better. I only hope others have taken the time to read through the email thread. As I have now found, trustatrader offers a much better service. You can do a comparison online of these companies. I hope you all make better decisions than I have going forward. There is no point going back and forth with this company. They have just shown through their response that if you decide to use their services, without mybuilder plus and the tradesman decides to go bankrupt or move somewhere else, you are liable for the damage. On the other hand, maybe using google reviews to search for trusted traders in your area my be better and safer in the long run**** Reply from MyBuilder 4 hours ago Hi Alice, Unfortunately we can't prevent people from going bankrupt. However, we now offer an insurance policy - MyBuilder Plus - to cover people for the occasions where work is unsatisfactory or tradespeople run into financial problems. After ten years of successfully using MyBuilder to source work and over two hundred positive customer comments for completed work, the tradesman received several negative customer comments in succession and we took action to permanently close his account.

Sofiene Tahri of Avatar Builders Ltd refurbished my bathroom. I have never seen such dedicated professionalism in all my 77 years. he is knowledgeable, dedicated, polite and fair. nothing is too much trouble. he will, over time, renovate the rest of my house. I would not even consider anybody else now. I will post photo's in December when the bath and sauna I have ordered has been supplied and installed.

To find a person to do the job for me was easy, job was done poorly, but the person promised me it will get sorted out, 3 years later I am still chasing and no luck. Asked MyBuilder to support and allow me to edit positive feedback I have originally left, but apparently I am not able to because of some policy they have. Wish they had better customer service.

Ian Morgan (The Travelling Toolbox) has recently fixed a water butt and guttering for us. Excellent service - punctual, professional, personable. It was a tricky job but he persevered to get the job done. He even fixed a bolt on the garden gate that he'd spotted needed attention on his way in! Ian has only just set up his diy business. Book him soon before he's really busy.

I recently used Martyn Thompson of Pro Job through MyBuilder to move a 8' x 14' shed from one side of my garden to the other. He and his dad arrived well before agreed time and wasted no time in getting the job started. i found them both to be very pleasant and very helpful. they soon finished their task and then helped with a delivery of heavy timber carrying it further into the rear garden than the delivery firm allowed.. In the evening I discovered a slight problem and reported it to Martin who arrived in the morning to rectify it and all has been well since. They apparently carry out several aspects of maintenance etc and i would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. i would point out that i am a genuine customer and this recommendation is true.

Alex Collins from AC Paving & Landscapes Northampton answered my message quickly when I sent him a text about my interest in paving my front garden. He came the same day and gave me a quote with a competitive market price. After we chose his business for our project he came the next day for the final measurements and said he will be back next week to start working with his team. On the starting day he came on the agreed time and started by thoroughly cleaning the area (digging and removing the old pavement). The next day he brought the rocks and other materials used for levelling and building the foundation. After this he brought the paving blocks and all the other materials he needed. He gave us time to think about the colour and took our ideas on board, explaining what can be done and what cannot be done due to technical constraints at all times. He also came up with the idea of using sleepers for our flower bed next to the tree. We are more than happy with the provided service and highly recommend Alex's business.

My builder good initially but with price raise and service now? Be careful.they will fall as soon as someone else will come with honest offers for the traders.

My builder do not care at all about the traders on there, i had a scenario where i got shortlisted, I immediately recognised the details of a customer I was already in a quoting process with. I contact my builder to ask them to cancel it off within around 3 min of being shortlisted. It was tough luck, pay for it anyway. Clearly they put more stock in just taking money than providing a fair service. Knowing full well that that lead has not helped me in anyway, they are still happy to take my money, says a lot about the companies ethics and the people who run it.
