Builders in Neath
There is no mandatory UK licensing for general builders as of September 2026. In Neath (Neath Port Talbot Council), start with the Federation of Master Builders directory at fmb.org.uk/find-a-builder and verify with the "Check a Member" tool — members are vetted on trading history, insurance, and a Code of Conduct (written quotes, site clean-up, guarantees passed on).
Prefer TrustMark / FMB members for a minimum 2-year financial protection on work. Get at least two written quotes that split labour, materials, and contingencies. Never pay 100% upfront — a staged schedule (deposit, stage payments, retention) is normal.
If work goes wrong with a non-member, call Citizens Advice 0808 223 1133 (Welsh 0808 223 1144). FMB members can use the federation's free conciliation / ADR route.
