did you not see the rogue traders TV programme the other week??? Please be aware that many of these companies do not do a proper job and despite it looking good when they have finished it rarely lasts - so if i were you i would a) check them out on the internet b) speak to your local trading standards office to see if they have heard anything untoward about the company
c) check to see if there are any court cases with their name on
- personally i would be very wary of any company with the name 'R US' in their name! why not speak to a few peole who have had drives done a few years ago and get someone by recomendation - you are aware that many local well established builders also do this kind of work as do local civil engineering companies.

I would get a few more quotes.There is too many cow boys out to make a fast buck.Have never heard of that company, have you tried a search or asked your neighbours if they have heard of them.I always get mighty suspicious when offered some thing cheap as everyone is on the make.

without being racist did they have irish accents, only a mobile number on the battered transit van, think you know the type,
you may wish to check at companies house to see if they are listed, this will only shor if they are Ltd or vat registered and will not show if they are a sole trader.
be very cautious did they approach you, if they did i would be inclined to say no.

do a check on them..ask to see references from other customers..if it sounds too good to be true , it probably is.
