There is no mandatory UK licensing for general builders as of September 2026. Start with the Federation of Master Builders directory at fmb.org.uk/find-a-builder and verify with "Check a Member".

Scaffolding near the castle quarter or highway frontages may need permission from Ceredigion Council. Prefer TrustMark / FMB members; get at least two written quotes; never pay 100% upfront.

If work goes wrong with a non-member, call Citizens Advice 0808 223 1133 (Welsh 0808 223 1144).
