About TrustedTradesCyprus

A Cyprus-focused trade directory founded by Luke Barry, drawing on practical building-industry experience.

What you can do here

The aim is straightforward: make it easier to find relevant businesses and give property owners a better framework for checking them. TrustedTradesCyprus is independent of the businesses listed and verification is a screening process, not a promise about future performance.

What verification means

Verification can improve the quality of an initial shortlist by checking stated information and evidence available at the time. It cannot predict how a business will perform on every future job. Homeowners remain responsible for checking that a provider is suitable, available and properly documented for the specific work.

Plan the enquiry well

Explain the property, location, desired result and known constraints. Send the same brief to suitable businesses and compare like with like. Significant work benefits from written specifications, agreed milestones, a process for variations and a record of decisions.

Make the final decision carefully

Speak to recent customers whose projects resemble yours. Ask about communication, cleanliness, variations and how the business responded when something needed correcting. Check the identity of the contracting party and make sure the quotation, invoice and payment recipient are consistent.

For substantial work, agree how completion will be assessed and what documents are due at handover. Avoid paying a large balance merely because materials have arrived. Payments should reflect the written agreement and genuine progress. If a project needs permission, design, structural assessment or specialist certification, use appropriately qualified Cyprus professionals and confirm current requirements.
